ISSUE NO.01 LATE HARVEST FURMINT 2013

Spicy, aromatic on the palate with hints of fresh pear and peaches. In 2013 winter was mild, but during Easter time we had a surprising snowfall in the vineyards. After a successful ripening season we could harvest high quality grapes in high volumes. The grapes were harvested towards the end of October.

We destemmed and macerated the grapes in the presses overnight. After pressing and settling we fermented in stainless steel tanks. The fermentation was followed by 6 months barrel maturation, only new, Zemplén wood, 300 litre barrels were used.
It is already obvious that 2013 is one of the great vintages for dry, late harvest and Aszú wines.
Serve at 12°C on its own or with foie gras. Also ideal with aromatic and spicy Asian cuisine and fresh fruits..
