A modern expression of a traditional wine in the Tokaj region, Királyudvar's Furmint is a late harvest semi-sweet wine with a dry, relaxed finish. During the harvest, ripe furmint berries which have been partially affected by botrytis cinerea are bunch-selected. These berries originate from the estate vineyards with higher elevations, which give the wine its unique shape and cool herbaceous flavors. Precisely crafted in the Királyudvar
style, the wine undergoes fermentation within a temperature controlled
environment. Afterwards, the wine is aged for a period of four to
eight months in 500 liter Hungarian oak casks, allowing layers of
floral tones to develop in the wine, while retaining its original
white fruit flavors. Rich in composition and balanced by a gentle
sweetness, our Furmint is a perfect match with nutty cheeses, fish
and veal. A consistent award-winner in Hungary, this late-harvest
wine exudes a perfect level of refinement and complexity. |
