What it pairs with

  • Grilled zander with lemon butter
    Racy acidity lifts the delicate freshwater fish.
  • Asparagus with hollandaise
    High-acid Furmint cuts through the rich butter sauce.
  • Fresh ricotta with herbs
    The wine's minerality complements tangy fresh dairy.

History

Family estate in Erdőbénye, a hillside village at higher elevation than the valley-floor wine towns. The forested ridges moderate temperatures and extend ripening, producing dry Furmint with pronounced natural acidity.
