HOLDVÖLGY FURMINT

2006

This is the “Tiz év után” (“Ten Years Later”) Holdvölgy Furmint, one of the single vineyard wines from the 2006 vintage that Lenkey held back for 10 years before release. The yield control in 2006 was Lenkey’s most rigorous to date, with only 6-8 bunches selected per vine.

Holdvölgy is one of the original first-class vineyard sites in Tokaj. Located in Mád, the soil is highly mineral, comprised of basalt tuff, rhyolite and red clay.

This wine was spontaneously fermented and aged in 500 L used Hungarian oak for 7 months, and in bottle for an additional 14 years. Wildly complex, this wine has aromas of beeswax, peach, leather and candied ginger, with golden honeyed apples, chalky minerals and citrus fruit on the palate. Practicing organic, vegan.
