Varietal

Furmint

Furmint is Hungary’s most renowned white grape variety, primarily associated with Tokaji Aszú, one of the world’s most famous sweet wines. Indigenous to Hungary, Furmint thrives in the volcanic soils of the Tokaj region, where its naturally high acidity and susceptibility to botrytis (noble rot) make it ideal for producing both sweet and dry wines. What makes Furmint unique is its versatility, structure, and aging potential. Dry Furmint wines are crisp and mineral-driven, featuring flavors of green apple, pear, quince, citrus, and white flowers, often with a touch of smokiness from oak aging. With time, they develop honeyed, nutty, and waxy characteristics. Tokaji Aszú, made from botrytized grapes, showcases intense notes of apricot, orange peel, caramel, and spice, balanced by vibrant acidity. Furmint pairs well with a wide range of foods, including seafood, poultry, spicy dishes, and blue cheese, making it a fascinating choice for both dry wine lovers and sweet wine enthusiasts.

Country

Austria

Archaeological evidence suggests that grapevines have been grown and cultivated in what is today modern Austria for over four thousand years, making it one of the oldest wine producing countries in the world. Over the centuries, relatively little has changed in Austrian wine, with the dominant grape varietals continuing to be Grüner Veltliner, Zweigelt, Pinot Noir and others. Austria is renowned for producing excellent and characterful dry white wines, although in the eastern part of the country, many wineries specialist in sweeter white wines made in a similar style to those of neighboring Hungary. Today, Austria has over fifty thousand hectares under vine, split over four key wine regions. The domestic wine industry remains strong, with Austrians drinking their local produce outside in the summer, and people around the world are beginning to once more rediscover this fascinating and ancient wine culture.

Region

Burgenland

Austria is a fascinating and ancient wine producing country, which once was heralded by the royal families and aristocracy of Europe as one of the finest and most important centers of viticulture in the world. Indeed, the wines of this central European country are home to many of the most surprising and seductive wines available today, and the eastern region of Burgenland is perhaps one of the finest regions Austria has. Whilst most of Austria is renowned for its off-dry and flavorful white wines, Burgenland is home to the country's red wine producers, with vineyards there being full of Pinot Noir, Zwiegelt and Blaufrankisch grapes, resulting in a wide palate of delicious and juicy reds. This is perhaps due to the relatively large amounts of sunshine and heat the region enjoys each year, and the proximity to one of the country's largest lakes, which helps red grapes reach their full potential.
