Notes from Juice Imports:

"Franz has taken on the lofty goal of returning Furmint to its homeland: Burgenland, Austria. Many of the sites now planted to international varieties were once planted with Furmint, and according to Franz’s research it was once revered. After grafting over old vines, and planting new vineyards in fallow but historic sites, his work really begins."

Flor Impressions:

We were blown away by how amazing this was on its own along with all of its food pairing possibilites. Highly aromatic with notes of marionberries, blueberry compote, violets, dried thyme and black peppercorns gently evolve from the glass. The palate is lively with a juicy/silky texture that flows into a mild tannic touch. A pleasant fruity, floral, and peppery finish invites for a second and third sip.
