CLASSIC FURMINT

2022

From Erika Rácz’s small organic estate in Erdőbénye, Tokaj, the Classic Furmint is truly emblematic of a dry Tokaji Furmint. Supple yet taut, with minerals and lemonheads on the nose. Green apple, ginger cake and salt flavors dominate on the palate. Great balance of fruit and minerals, with the long acidic finish Tokaji wines are famous for.

Spontaneous fermentation with native yeasts, and aged for 8 months on the lees in 500 L used Hungarian oak barrels. Certified organic, low sulfites added at bottling. 2200 bottles produced.

From Wine Enthusiast: “A bouquet of peach, apricot and Turkish delight set the scene for nectarine, clementine and rose petal flavors with a hint of mint tea. Vivid acidity makes it presence known immediately and endures on the palate with a touch of salted sage leaf." (92 Points, December 2023)
