In 2016 after a succesful ripening season we could harvest high quality grapes in high volumes.
Furmint grapes were harvested in October and in the beginning of November. After pressing and fermentation, the maturation took place for 15 month in 300l Hungarian oak barrels. It is the traditional late harvest of Tokaji. Serve at 12°C on its own or with foie gras. Also ideal with aromatic and spicy Asian cuisine, fresh fruits and light desserts.
