Furmint grapes harvested from 20-30 year old vines in Mád's Tokaj wine district, from the Hintós and Dancka vineyards, grown on volcanic rhyolite and clay-loam soils.
Winemaking. 50 % of the grapes were macerated in layers of whole clusters and destemmed grapes for 2 weeks, then the fermentation was finished in a fiberglass tank. The other 50 % were machine destemmed and pressed directly, in basket press, then fermented in Amphoras and an Egg fermenter. The final blend was made in the summer of 2022.
