The Late Harvest, also called Késói Szüretelésú in Hungarian, is a traditional late-harvest style wine, made from shrivelled, botrycized Furmint grapes and barrel fermented in the style of Sauternes. This process preserves the fresh acidity of the Furmint grape, creating wines with lift and verve. It's a fantastic expression of the Disznóko vineyard. 12.5% ABV, 100g/l residual sugar.
"Has Botrytis, picked at end of harvest and three or four months in barrel. The sweet dried apricot and hint of fig is more pronounced now, with a lovely glace orange fruit, maybe a hint of fresh ginger. Deliciously rich and full on the palate, with masses of grapefruity acidity that shores everything up, with masses of orange and fresh fruit flavours, but that smoky and honeyed richness too." 91/100 points www.winepages.com
"A racy, off-dry wine, sporting a backbone of vibrant acidity that drives the candied lemon peel, honeysuckle and apricot notes through the chalky finish. Furmint. Drink now. 87 points." www.winespectator.com.
