Furmint in February

So, the historic wine region of Tokaj is dominated by the Furmint grape. A superb mirror to the terroir, Furmint reflects the volcanic soils with precision giving us wines with wonderful minerality. A certain delicious saltiness. This grape creates elegant dry wines, as well as providing a superb backbone of acidity for the legendary Aszú wines of the area. This versatility means it is no surprise that this variety covers some 60% of the region.

At the February market there will be two main Furmint threads: a seminar and an open tasting.
- 10.30am -11.30am FURMINT SEMINAR tasting of 12 Furmint wines led by Tokaji wine expert LÁSZLÓ ALKONYI

Árpádhegy Pince, Basilicus Szőlőbirtok, Zoltán Demeter, Disznókő,
Gizella Pince, Gróf Degenfeld, Füleky Pincészet, Majoros Birtok,
Patrícius Winery, Tokaj Pendits, Szepsy Pince, Tokaj Hétszőlő

 An impressive list by any standards. We are indeed honoured! There has been great interst in this unique event and all the tickets have already been allocated. You can still join us for the open tasting:
