Furmint is a white grape originating from the Tokaj region of Hungary. Used for both the famous Tokaji sweet wines and for dry wine, it is notorious for it’s intense acidity. Dark gold in color and full bodied, the nose displays spicy, toasty Hungarian oak and honeysuckle. The fruit profile is predominantly poached pear and apple and the slightest hint of nectarine. True to varietal, the acidity is bracing.
