2018 Homonna Határi Furmint

Homonna Határi Furmint is grown on a vineyard that Attila Homonna discovered in 1999, and it was love at first sight. Határi is reputed in Tokaj as an outstanding grapegrowing terroir. Attila bought the first parcels here with vines that were over 100 years old, and they have been gradually replanted since. The topsoil here is layered, crumbled rhyolite, with a perlite subsoil. Határi wines have a friendlier feel than those from Rány. It’s all relative, of course, but they tend to be more lush and fruit-driven than mineral in character. The wine is fermented and aged in Stockinger barrels and Hungarian oak, typically between three and six years old.
