What it pairs with

  • Freshwater fish with paprika
    Clean mineral Furmint works with Hungary's paprika-based fish dishes.
  • Soft goat's cheese with herbs
    Mineral and citrus pair with fresh tangy cheese and herb accents.
  • Cucumber and yoghurt dip
    The wine's crisp acidity and clean mineral complement a cool cucumber-yoghurt starter.

History

Winemaker Nimród Kovács produces wines from Mezőzombor, the same village as Disznókő's large estate, but at a much smaller boutique scale. The estate's range includes the rare Kabar variety alongside the dominant Furmint.
