Winemaking and wine style: Furmint, Hárslevelű and Zeta harvested and selected according to parcels, pressed in a small press, with the pure must and the press juice handled together. One day of must settling. Fermentation and ageing is solely carried out in second-fill barrels. The wine is fined and filtered once, then bottled. Fresh, deep, complex single-vineyard varietal wines harvested by the vineyards and picked by parcels, whereby the most important goal is to show the given plot’s style, unique minerals and character.
