From the importer:
Úrágya, means “God’s bed”. The vineyard sits in a dip between two extinct volcanoes to the west of Mád. Viewed from our village it is where we see the sun “go to sleep” every night. Our vines are on the western slope in the higher parts of the vineyard. The unique volcanic soils build the structure, backbone and minerality of this delicious dry wine. Maturation in oak barrels adds further complexity and roundness.
After harvesting the Furmint grapes, whole bunches were pressed and fermented in 500 litre Zemplén oak barrels. After fermentation the wine was matured for 10 months in oak (of which 20% new barrels).
