Mad Furmint Dry 2015

Description

We’re mad about Mád and Tokaj!

A truly local ‘village’ wine – which testifies to the 
quality and individuality of Mad and can make the village a worldwide name.

Therefore they launched a partnership with Szent Tamás Winery and Szepsy Winery in 2011. The result of this partnership is the extremely successful wine  called  Mád Furmint  2011. They have continued with this project into 2012 and have made Mád Furmint 2012. This wine was made in greater volumes and high in quality.

The aim of Szent Tamás Winery is to buy grapes from carefully selected vignerons, who are willing to cultivate their vines to their strict standards, and do not produce more than seven tons of grapes per hectare.

Then, vinification takes place at the Szent Tamás Winery where they incorporate modern winemaking technology to produce the best possible wine from these select grapes. Mád Furmint is released the year after of harvest. 

Mád Furmint is able to express the new style of tokaj dry wines. The drinker can readily identify the specific style and personality of Mád’s vineyards on the nose and also on the palate. The presence of characteristic minerals in the clay rich soils give the wine a strong notion of terroir.

However the main goal is to make an easy-drinking wine!

For the first vintage  twenty thousand bottles were made, all made of 100 precent Furmint.

Following the successful cooperation with vignerons of Mád , they have been able to increase production fivefold.  75,000 bottles of Mád Furmint were made in 2012 and in 2013.
