Notes from Danch & Granger:

"Aromatic and razor sharp. Fermented much the same way as the other Bodrog wines in local Szeredny oak. Where the single vineyard Lapis is creamy and mineral sweet, the Halas vineyard is more tea-like in flavor and texture. Still incredibly young and recently bottled, this wine will continue to evolve in the coming months into the more fiery side of Furmint. Pairs very well with fatty and spicy soups, and like the name of the vineyard meaning fish indicates, it is delicious with fresh water fish."

Winemaking
Afer settling for at least a day after crush, wines are barreled down into local Szerednye Oak Barrels (3-4 yearls old) and left to ferment on their own yeasts. After regular batonage, full malolactic fermentation and 9 months of aging sur lie, all wines are gently filtered and sulfured before bottling.
