Furmint

Evolucio Dry Furmint is a modern expression of Hungary's indigenous Furmint grape, showcasing the variety's potential beyond the famous sweet Tokaji wines. This dry white wine demonstrates Furmint's natural high acidity and mineral complexity, offering a fresh and food-friendly style that reflects the unique terroir of the Tokaj region.

Furmint may be best known as the grape behind Hungary's legendary Tokaji dessert wines, but this dry version from neighboring Slovenia shows the variety's impressive versatility. Gonc's "60's Single" (named for 60-year-old single vineyard vines) showcases Furmint's natural tension between richness and acidity. The Gonc family has been growing grapes in this border region for generations, with vineyards that straddle the Slovenian-Hungarian line. Their approach combines respect for tradition with modern, minimal-intervention winemaking. The result is a bottle that offers both immediate pleasure and surprising complexity – perfect for curious wine lovers looking to explore beyond mainstream varieties. It's the kind of discovery that makes you wonder what other viticultural treasures are hiding in Eastern Europe's lesser-known wine regions.
