{"product_id":"zoltan-demeter-veres-furmint-hongrie","title":"Zoltan Demeter - Veres Furmint - 2021","description":"\u003cp\u003eVeres Furmint comes from vineyards located in the historic Tokaj region of northeastern Hungary, on volcanic slopes overlooking the Bodrog Valley. The plots are mainly situated around the village of Mád, in the heart of the appellation, where the soils are a blend of volcanic tuff, rhyolite, and andesite, sometimes covered with loess. This geological mosaic, combined with a continental climate tempered by the Tisza and Bodrog rivers, promotes a slow ripening of the Furmint grapes and imparts to the wine a mineral tension characteristic of this terroir.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Furmint grapes from the Veres parcel are hand-harvested at optimal ripeness and then carefully sorted. After gentle pressing, the must is clarified before fermenting slowly in oak barrels, with the aim of preserving the purity of the fruit and the mineral expression of the terroir. Aging then continues on fine lees in barrels, with measured stirring, to add complexity and texture without masking the wine's natural tension, before bottling to retain precision and freshness.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis wine reveals notes of \u003cstrong\u003egreen apple\u003c\/strong\u003e , \u003cstrong\u003eripe pear\u003c\/strong\u003e , and \u003cstrong\u003ecitrus\u003c\/strong\u003e , complemented by delicate \u003cstrong\u003efloral\u003c\/strong\u003e touches and a pronounced \u003cstrong\u003eminerality\u003c\/strong\u003e reminiscent of volcanic rock.

On the palate, the wine is precise and taut, driven by lively acidity, a straightforward yet elegant texture, and a long, saline, and refreshing finish that underscores the dry and structured character of Furmint.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Valade \u0026 Transandine","offers":[{"title":"750ml","offer_id":56582981943644,"sku":null,"price":50.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Set of 2 bottles (75cl)","offer_id":56582981976412,"sku":null,"price":100.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0284\/0032\/0643\/files\/demeter_zoltan_harslevelu_tokaj_2023_png_e6a6019d.png?v=1769593595","url":"https:\/\/www.lebaroudeurduvin.com\/en-at\/products\/zoltan-demeter-veres-furmint-hungary","provider":"Le Baroudeur du Vin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
