Fruit sourced from parcel 46 of one of Tokaj’s most geologically complex vineyard sites on Mád’s eastern side. Volcanic activity has created exceptional soil diversity: red clay, weathered zeolite, rhyolite and rhyolitic tuff all contribute to the terroir. Thanks to the unique conditions of this tiny 0.98-hectare parcel, the Furmint beautifully expresses place—saline, stony and intensely mineral. Winemaking follows a precise and established approach: spontaneous barrel fermentation using indigenous yeast culture, followed by 8 months of aging in first-fill oak barrels.

„I’ve been saying for 20 years that we’d stop adding new areas. However, we just can’t stop ourselves! Now it’s the andesite soil of Tállya and its five first-class vineyards that excite me. Once it accounted for most of the grapes in the wine region. My wife’s hairdresser has even asked me why I go there so often. We discover 800-year-old vineyard names and each parcel hides a surprise. The 2011 wines seem suspiciously good: that’s when it’s the most nerve wrecking for the winemaker. Again it showed that there is no recipe in winemaking; the practice of walking the vineyards and experimenting cannot be replaced by anything. Every day we try to make our wines believing that the wine region will once again be at the place where it should be.”
