Notes & Pairings

This is a first from Réka. The Furmint was sourced from the 30 year old Hintós vineyard in the Tokaji village of Mád. Historically speaking, this has been a 2nd class site since 1798. Loamy topsoil over volcanic rhyolite and clay, it’s just north of Szent Tamás and nearing the very top of the village’s vineyards. Half was destemmed and direct pressed into 400L Clayver amphora. These amphora are fired at nearly twice the temperature of terracotta, allow 1/10 the oxidation of a barrel, are completely neutral and sealed with a heavy glass lid. The other half was macerated for 14 days in an open vat, basket pressed and also put into another 400L Clayver amphora. Blended after fermentation, only 800 liters were produced.
