The 2024 Disznókő Tokaji Dry Furmint is a vibrant Hungarian white showing green apple, pear and lemon alongside white peach, grapefruit, white flowers and subtle herbal notes. Furmint’s naturally high acidity gives the wine a crisp, energetic profile, while Tokaj’s volcanic soils contribute a fine stony and mineral character. The 2024 vintage combines ripe orchard fruit with a distinctly dry, focused structure and refreshing saline edge.
On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied and finely textured, with lively acidity supporting layers of citrus, orchard fruit and delicate stone fruit. Green apple and pear are complemented by lemon, grapefruit and white peach, while subtle floral and herbal notes add aromatic detail. A fine mineral and saline character provides tension and length, keeping the wine dry, crisp and mouth-watering. The finish is clean, focused and persistent, with lingering citrus, green apple and stony mineral notes.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for drinkers looking to explore dry Tokaji Furmint, particularly those who enjoy mineral-driven whites with vibrant acidity and a savoury edge. It is approachable young and highly versatile with food, while short-term cellaring can bring additional texture and complexity. Best enjoyed over the next 3–6 years. Serve chilled with oysters, grilled whiting with lemon and herbs, seared scallops, steamed mussels, roast chicken with tarragon, or goat’s cheese and herb tart.
