Crafted in the renowned Tokaj region, it marries Old World precision with a modern, vibrant style. This is a dry, terroir-driven expression that shows just how refined and food‑friendly Furmint can be.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, this Furmint presents a pale straw to light lemon color with a youthful brightness that hints at its freshness. The nose opens with zesty citrus—think lemon zest and grapefruit—layered with green apple, pear skin, and a subtle mineral edge, along with delicate white flowers and a faint hint of fresh herbs.\n\nOn the palate, it is dry, linear, and precise, with lively acidity giving structure and lift. Flavors of crunchy green apple, lemon, and lime are underpinned by saline, stony minerality and a gentle, lightly spicy note often associated with well-made Furmint. The finish is clean and refreshing, with good length and a slight tension that invites another sip. Enjoyable now for its vibrancy, it also has the structure to develop added complexity over the next 3–5 years, gaining more nuttiness and honeyed nuances with careful cellaring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSourced from vineyards around the historic village of Mád in the Tokaj region of Hungary, this wine reflects a terroir of volcanic and clay-rich soils that naturally lend themselves to minerality and tension in white wines. Grapes are typically harvested by hand to ensure optimal ripeness and careful selection, preserving Furmint’s bright acidity and delicate aromatics. In the cellar, the wine is vinified as a dry white: gently pressed, fermented at controlled temperatures in stainless steel (and in some cases partially in neutral barrels) to highlight purity of fruit, then rested on fine lees to add texture and subtle complexity without overshadowing its mineral core.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis dry Furmint is a versatile food partner, pairing beautifully with freshwater fish, pan‑fried or grilled white fish, ceviche, sushi, and shellfish such as prawns or scallops. It also works well with lighter poultry dishes, goat’s cheese, soft cheeses, and vegetable‑driven plates like asparagus, grilled zucchini, or herb‑led salads. Serve well‑chilled but not icy, ideally around 9–11°C (48–52°F), to allow its aromatics and mineral nuances to unfold. Decanting is generally not necessary, but opening the bottle 15–20 minutes before serving can help the wine open up in the glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMa'd Moser is a collaborative project centered in the village of Mád in Tokaj, one of Hungary’s most storied wine regions.
