Vintage: 2020

Varietals: Hárslevelű, Kéknyelű, Furmint

Farming: Organic/Biodynamic, Unfined/Unfiltered, No added SO2

This Hungarian blend has a flavorful mouthfeel of key lime, pear, tropical fruit and aromatic herbs with a volcanic mineral drive.

The grapes were harvested at three various times at their optimum maturity. Half of the Hárslevelű was destemmed into open fermenters and fermented with skins for 8 days, while the other half of the Hárslevelű along with Kéknyelű and the Furmint were pressed as whole bunches and fermented in different types of amphoras. Aged on fine lees for 9 months. It was blended in June and bottled in July without fining, filtration, and without added sulfur (total SO2 below 10ppm).
