#Organic#Furmint wines from the highest south-facing slopes of #Tokaj. Our mission is to make wines that mirror the unique characteristics of their birthplace.
Due to the abundance of sunshine and rain, long shoots already take too much energy away from the plant, so we cut off the far-reaching shoots. Thus, we encourage the trunk to devote its valuable energy to maturing the fruit rather than leaves and shoots during ripening.
If you are in the UK and bored of this summers' lack of sunshine, why not try a @corneyandbarrow mixed case. As they write... 'If Sauvignon Blanc is your go-to, try our fabulously refreshing Furmint, from the talented team at Barta Winery in Hungary.'

Taste & aroma are complex, in which honey and fruity notes from botrytis and the aromas formed during maturation are decisive. #tokaj#szamorodni#winelovers
Sweet 𝐬𝐳𝐚𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐧𝐢 is made by processing bunches of grapes containing both botrytised & healthy grapes. Maturation in wooden barrels for min. six months is a legal requirement. Increasing alcohol, sweetening, increasing/decreasing acidity & off-site bottling is banned.
Harvested grapes min. alcohol potential 16%, min. acidity 5g/l or min. residual sugar content 45 g/l. The wine's colour ranges from light golden yellow to deep golden yellow, and the aroma of botrytis grapes blends in with the ripening notes.
'New trends always originate from change. A glass of wine on the table tells of exposure, care, and the lovable harmony of the ingredients. All this, coupled with food, opens up a whole new dimension.' 𝐊á𝐫𝐨𝐥𝐲 𝐁𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐚, 𝐨𝐰𝐧𝐞𝐫
𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐡𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐭-𝐥𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠, steepest & partly terraced stretches of Mád’s Király Vineyard were historically always distinguished. We have always attached this latter name to the single-vineyard wines we produce from this site: Ö𝐫𝐞𝐠 𝐊𝐢𝐫á𝐥𝐲 (𝐎𝐥𝐝 𝐊𝐢𝐧𝐠). #Tokaj
'Northern Irish chef Clare Smyth is the first British female to be awarded 3 Michelin stars.' Her debut fine dining restaurant, Core, opened in 2017. We are chuffed to bits seeing our Szamordni 2013 now being poured by the glass @ Core. https://t.co/uw2LbaROPk @corneyandbarrow
𝐎𝐮𝐫 𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐟 𝐬𝐚𝐲𝐬 'Memorable pairing occurs when it’s based either on similarities or when strong contrasts are created in terms of flavour, body, texture, intensity & taste. Harmony between plate & glass along with a clean and distinct wine-food pairing always delivers.'
'Let the combination of propolis, peach, citrus, tropical fruit, floral, Christmas spice and slight mushroom flavours and aromas of barely a few years old sweet szamorodni complete your lunch.' 𝐔𝐣𝐯á𝐫𝐢 𝐕𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐧, 𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐫

To be able to taste with friends again is priceless. To see you, with your friends in our winery is equally amazing.

𝐄𝐠𝐲 𝐤𝐢𝐬 𝐟𝐮𝐫𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐭 2020 | Less sunlight, rhapsodic rainfall distribution, whimsical seasons is whar 2020 brought, causing the grapes to ripen slower. We used perfect, ripe fruit, so we postponed the harvest until we could pick perfect. #organicfarming@corneyandbarrow
