In 2016 the overall quality is very high with good ripeness and acidity and volumes in line with long-term averages. Furmint grapes were harvested at the end of September. Whole bunches were pressed and fermented in Zemplén oak barrels. After fermentation we matured the wine for six months in 300 litre and 500 litre barrels. The final blend has a proportion of 20% new oak.
A superb companion to barbecued white meats, even some more serious veal and pork dishes. Perfectly matched with traditional Hungarian meat cuisine. Serving temperature at 11 – 13 °C.
