The nose evolved quite a lot over the past 45 minutes. A bit closed and citrusy at first, it shows now minerally notes like chalk and crushed oyster shell. There is white peach, wheat, white flowers too. This is super complex. As always with furmint there is a strong acid drive, but here peach, lemon and even pineapple notes give it balance. There is almost a residual sugar impression. The texture is soft and there is a bit of weight on the sides. The mid palate is a ball that expands and the finish is a fresh, fun, peachy, pineappley, lemony delish that goes on for a while . This is a great effort. Tokaj winemakers have access to an outstanding terroir and make wonders out of it. I'm surprised they don't yet get the same credit recognition and love as some other winemakers from other, more laudated, wine regions. This is outstanding, and it goes for less than 10 euros at the cellar door. — 7 months ago

The wine in the picture is an orange wine and this vintage is actually not a furmint but hárslevelű. Narancsbor in Hungarian means orange wine that is it is macerated in contact with the grape skins and hence it becomes an orange color. This vintage (2015) is not as strong as the 2011 (which was really furmint) was. It is rather fruity but for my taste the acidity is a bit lower than expected. — 9 years ago

WOW. Compared to the Szpesy, so much more power and concentration. I agree with the waiter-- in contrast the Szpesy feels "lazy" (even though it's a great wine in its own right) — 9 years ago
