Located in the Tokaj-Hegyalja area, the vineyard benefits from volcanic soils and a favorable microclimate, contributing to the wine’s distinctive minerality and aromatic complexity. The region’s unique conditions, including its elevation and exposure, play a crucial role in the development of the grapes’ character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eVinification \u0026amp; Aging Methods\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eGrapes are handpicked at optimal ripeness and gently pressed to obtain a high-density must. Fermentation occurs over 8 to 12 days in new Hungarian oak barrels. The wine is aged in 136-liter small barrels, typical of the region, with regular lees stirring (batonnage) for the first month, followed by a further five months of aging without stirring. This meticulous process results in a wine that balances freshness with depth and structure. \u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eThe 2021 Mandolás Furmint presents a vibrant mineral profile on the nose, enveloped in notes of white peach, cantaloupe, and tart lemon juice.
