Very lees-y, rich and creamy but with a gorgeous, effervescent minerality and aromas of apricot, orange peal, and lime blossom. Medium bodied, and soft on the palate, with sufficient acid, a mineral mid-palate and a long clean finish. Sounds good but something is weirding me out here. Hints of tomato, mint and rubber band. Lacking fruit and concentration. A little more mineral than I would expect. Very creamy too. Lacks tension. Maybe it's the vintage, try a different one. Enjoyed with bbq'd salmon and succotash on a hot summer evening.

A clean and bright pale lemon colour. Pronounced intensity on the nose, concentrated on primary flavours, citrus, candied orange, apricot, a hint of smokiness, developing well. Dry on the palate, with high acidity, medium alcohol and a medium body. Medium + flavour intensity with aromas of lime zest, white peach, apricot, a hint of honey. There is a round structure with strong mineral touch, the finish is of meidum + length with bitter sweet notes of ripe lime zest. Very refreshing quite complex dry Furmint.

Peach to pineapple fruit on the nose with hay, aniseed, cucumber peel and slight meadow flower. Fullbodied and greasy palatal feel with slyly working mid-level acidity and pure mid-intense fruit. Good leesy richness with almost creamy roundness and depth of flavor. The tactile presence is obviously way more than mid-intense and really makes the overall impact far more felt than just the fruit. Long finish. Lovely structure caressing the palate. Clean abundant fruit. Not as loud as I make this seem but a stand out wine nonetheless!
