Furmint
Light golden yellow, excellent clarity. Floral and honey nose, spicy and dry in mouth with white flower flavor. Long mineral finish. Mouthfeel (viscosity) on the heavy side, but reasonably good acidity. A different aesthetic going on here so give it a chance. 50/50 barrel and tank fermented. 13% alc/vol. The back label claims there’s peach flavor in there, but you’ll need to wait an hour for it to emerge, and it’s a faint underripe peach note, at least initially.

Flinty petrol white peach nose.

Feb 28th, 2023Strong acidity, green papaya, honey, long mineral-driven finish. Another great holiday season of Hungarian wines!

Dec 27th, 2022Paired with a burrata with prosciutto and pistachios. The floral, grassy and slightly honeyed notes of this wine made it a nice refreshing complement to the creamy and salty burrata dish at Corkbuzz.
