100% Furmint
Furmint has become a defining variety of Hungarian wine culture. With “Kelet” (meaning East), we aim to express the pure character of our monopole vineyard, Vereb-domb.(Sparrow Hill)
Hand-harvested, Demeter-certified fruit; rigorously sorted and fully destemmed. Two-thirds of the must underwent a 24-hour cold soak prior to gentle pressing, followed by fermentation in amphora. The remaining one-third was macerated for 10 days, including 5% whole clusters to enhance structure and aromatic complexity.
All lots were aged on fine lees in amphora for 18 months, without fining and with minimal sulfur addition.
