Notes & Pairings
This is a 100% traditional method sparkling Furmint from the famed Kővágó vineyard. Mentioned as far back as 1349, this is a colder site on super rhyolite heavy rocky (Kővágó = Stonecutter) soils. It’s later ripening and maintains incredibly high acidity. It was first disgorged in December 2020 and then left to rest for 6 months. While this is classified as an Extra Dry, it reads far drier and like much of Tokaj, needs the extra residual sugar to coax out the volcanic fruit and tame the acidity. Only 600 bottles produced.
