Disznoko Tokaji Dry Furmint 2023 (750ml)

This is the kind of white that snaps you to attention — crisp pear, fresh lemon and green apple straight out of the gate, bright and mouth-watering from the first sip. There’s a salty, citrus-driven edge that feels made for the table, not the tasting bench.

Made entirely from Furmint grown on steep volcanic slopes in Tokaj, this wine shows just how compelling Hungary’s dry whites can be. Disznókő has been quietly leading the way here for decades, farming specific parcels for dry wine rather than sweet styles, with soils rich in volcanic minerals driving clarity and tension. Fermented and matured on lees in tank, the wine keeps its purity while gaining texture, with notes of almond blossom, chalky minerality and a savoury, briny finish that lingers. Bone dry, focused and quietly complex — brilliant as an aperitif, and a natural partner for oysters, seafood or simple poultry dishes.
