Furmint, this grape has no clear origin like many other grapes, probably the origin of the furmint is located in Western Europe. The furmint, like many other important grapes, descends from the goulais blanc (a very old French grape, an important ancestor for many). She herself is the parent of the ideal blending partner hárslevelü. Furmint comes in all kinds of varieties. She is known for many acids, tight aftertaste and wild flavors. Furmint makes lively wines, whether sweet, dry or with bubbles, a furmint wine speaks! Originally it is a dry grape, by letting the grapes hang longer the grape develops a lot of sugars. In addition, the grape is also very sensitive to botrytis. The dry furmint wines give many flavors such as citrus, lime peel, pear, minerals and smoky tones. The sweet furmint wines give flavors such as peach, pineapple, honey and when aging flavors such as chocolate, nuts and coffee develop. We also find furmint in blends and sparkling wine.
