Product Notes

Characterised by its rich flavour profile, Dobogo Tokaji Furmint wine from Hungary is indeed a treasure to behold. Emanating divine notes of white fruit, peach, and apricot, its tangy acidity balances the wine beautifully. Hints of honey linger on the palate, while the oak ageing confers a subtle complexity. Its trademark minerality is derived from Furmint grapes that thrive in the volcanic soils of the esteemed Tokaj region. Dobogo Tokaji Furmint wine truly embodies finesse, promising an engaging drink that is, at every sip, a sheer testament to Hungary's illustrious winemaking heritage. Enjoy it chilled for an enhanced sensory experience.

Tasting Notes

Golden in colour, this wine is regarded as the driest and most mineral Furmints of all Dobogó wines. On the nose, the ripe citrus notes blend with aromas of lime and peach. The palate is dry and characterful, with a continuation of citrus, peach, and peach blossom, that reflect the unique qualities of the Furmint grape.
