With cheese

Parenyica Our pick Parenyica is lightly smoked and, per the HÍR collection, pleasantly salty; the high acidity of an unoaked or lightly oaked dry Furmint refreshes the palate between bites and keeps the smoke from lingering. Gomolya Our pick Gomolya is a fresh cheese, eaten plain, grilled or kept in spiced oil; the high acidity of an unoaked or lightly oaked dry Furmint cuts through the cheese and the oil.
