Royal Tokaji
Uragya Dry Furmint 1st Growth
Úrágya, means “God’s bed”. The vineyard sits in a dip between two extinct volcanoes to the west of Mád. Viewed from our village it is where we see the sun “go to sleep” every night. Our vines are on the western slope in the higher parts of the vineyard. The unique volcanic soils build the structure, backbone and minerality of this delicious dry wine. Maturation in oak barrels adds further complexity and roundness.

Úrágya Furmint offers a captivating balance of structure, minerality, and freshness. A golden hue in the glass reveals its depth, while the nose is a complex blend of crisp citrus, white stone fruits, and subtle oak spice. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied yet precise, with vibrant acidity that lifts its bold flavors of green apple, lemon zest, and hints of white flowers.

"Hints of jasmine and spun honey accent this well-cut white, which layers poached pear, persimmon, lemon pith and green almond flavors with sleek acidity. Offers a fine, lightly chalky texture, with an underlying tang of salinity."
— Olivia Nolan, 2024
