Furmint

Vintage

2010

Description

Brilliant straw yellow, Bosc`s bottle pears, red apples and quince chilli. Close your eyes! All of a sudden a meadow with white and yellow flowers and a tree heavily loaded with greengages (Kriecherl) will appear in front or your mind's eye. Spring meets autumn – in Rust – and only there! Dry, vital, animating acidity, hearty and juicy. Beautiful touch of buckthorn, papaya, compact, very creamy texture, selective harvesting before botrytis affection is noticeable as well as the extremely low yield.

Accompanying ideas

Crispy fried zander with okra & fennel risotto. Bean strudel with marjoram sauce, endive salad with pumpkin seed oil, hard-boiled egg and bacon. Enjoy with a delicious snack of naturally raised pork, fresh brown bread with and matured Gouda cheese and much more… - the hit of any blind tasting of whites and cheerful wine get-togethers.
