“Savor a piece of history with the 100% Furmint vintage from the Oremus estate, the very first vineyard in Tokaj to produce great white wines!”

“It’s dry and flinty, with notes of waxed lemons, apple slices, cream, and beeswax. Medium-bodied to full-bodied, it’s crisp and well-structured, with a lively acidity running through it, while also displaying ripe fruit and a creamy character. A lingering finish. Drink now.” (James Suckling 2023)
