Levegő

Levegő (“Air”) is a pure Furmint from Tokaj that really lives up to its name – light on its feet but full of character. The grapes come from the single Hetény vineyard, where young six-year-old vines on loess soils give very bright, lively fruit.
The wine is pressed in whole bunches, and the juice is split in two: half ferments and ages in a stoneware egg, half in stainless steel. The tank keeps the fruit clean and crisp, while the egg adds gentle texture and a subtle, rounded mouthfeel. It spends about eight months on fine lees and is bottled unfined, unfiltered and without added sulphur, so you taste Furmint in a very direct, honest way.
In the glass you can expect aromas of elderflower, white peach and citrus peel, with a soft hint of honey. The palate is dry, focused and refreshing, with firm acidity and a clear mineral edge. Great on its own, it also works very well with seafood, poultry or vegetable dishes.
