2022 was an early vintage with good balance, elegance and power in the dry wines, and creamy richness in the sweets.
Drought conditions through the vintage and relatively higher temperatures conducted to an early harvest – from the end of August until mid-September. We achieved high quality by picking our grapes at the optimum moment, enabling perfect balance.
After harvesting the Furmint grapes, whole bunches were pressed and fermented in Zemplén oak barrels. After fermentation the wine was matured for ten months in oak (of which 20% new barrels).
Mézes Mály Furmint is a sleek, concentrated wine with elegance and a subtle floral character – hints of spice, and plenty of white peach and apricot fruit all balanced by refreshing, crisp acidity and a lingering finish.
A magyar konyha kiváló kísérője, de borjú- és sertés húsok mellé is kifogástalan. Fogyasztását 9-11 C°-on javasoljuk.
