Notes & Pairings
“Kis” literally translates to small, but the sentiment is not lesser than, but rather that it’s the younger sibling to the older vine and fully barrel fermented versions. All of the fruit comes from the famed terraced Öreg Király Dűlő, but from the younger cordon trained vines lower on the hill. It’s also picked early without botrytis, 90% fermented in stainless steel, and the rest is fermented in oak. With just a few short months on the lees, it's a super refreshing and welcoming door opener for the estate and for anyone curious about the
dry Furmint category writ large.
