Disznoko - Tokaji - Dry Furmint - 2025
Harvest
Manual harvest of fully ripened, healthy bunches in small boxes of 20 kg (44 lbs). Many different plots of the Disznóko vineyard were harvested separately. The harvest for dry white wines extended from September 3rd to September 17th, an unusually long period. This phase was punctuated by interruptions caused by heavy rainfall, forcing us to carry out rigorous grape sorting.
Vinification
The fruits of the different plots were vinified separately. The grapes were full bunch pressed (directly without destemming), allowed to settle for a night and then fermented in stainless steel vats at a temperature controlled between 16-18°C (61-64 F). No malolactic fermentation.
Tasting Notes
Light straw-yellow robe with green highlights. Green apple, almond, stone fruits aromas on the nose together with some herbal and vegetal hints like green spices. It has fresh acidity, good mouth filling with salinity and elegant bitterness leading to a good mineral finish.
Food Pairing
Excellent as an aperitif, with fish and light sauces (e.g. herring) or seafood (superb with oysters and caviar), as well as poultry, game birds and salads.
