Somszög Furmint

The vines are planted in the historic, south-west-facing Somszög vineyard site near Tállya, on a thin topsoil over strongly rhyolitic bedrock with volcanic tuff. According to the estate, the wine is matured mainly in Hungarian oak casks; the wines age for at least six months. Fermentation is spontaneous, without cultured yeast. The style is described as pale gold and fruit-driven, with white fruit, ripe fruit, lime, floral notes, a mineral character and lively acidity. Information on tannins, filtration and sulphur for the 2024 vintage is unavailable.
