Description
The winemaker behind this wine, Dr. Krisztián Ungváry, is better known as one of Hungary’s most esteemed historians. But, he has been making wine in Tokaj for over a decade, steadily increasing his ambitions there. His fizzy Furmint is refreshing, and is part of the new wave of Hungarian sparklers—which come in a range of styles. It is fresh, a bit mineralic, fragrant, fruity, and lovely. This wine also shows how very versatile the Furmint grape can be, whether it is starring in a bubbly wine like this one, or a serious bone dry wine made to age. In making this wine, Ungváry has paid attention to all of the small details, just as he does when writing about Hungary’s complex history.
