Furmint on basalt is like Riesling on slate — it vibrates. Kolonia 52 sources from Ság-hegy, another volcanic hill in their region, and lets the grape do the talking. Direct pressed, slow fermented in a single 600L barrel, bottled by gravity with nothing added. This is the wine that proves Hungary's Furmint story extends far beyond Tokaj.

Direct pressed, aged on the lees in 500–600L oak barrels for 22 months. Bottled without any additions. Grapes from Ság-hegy, organic vineyard.

Chill for 25 minutes before opening. Already cold? Take it out and wait 5–10 minutes — this white works best around 10°C.

No decanting needed, but give it 10 minutes in the glass. It gains in complexity as it warms slightly.
