Birtok

2013 Tokaj Furmint

The Samuel Tinon Birtok is a captivating white wine made from the Furmint varietal, hailing from the illustrious Tokaj region in Hungary. This 2013 vintage boasts a medium-bodied profile that gracefully balances its lively acidity, making it truly refreshing on the palate. The wine presents a prominent fruit intensity, showcasing flavors of ripe stone fruits complemented by subtle herbal notes, creating a harmonious and inviting experience. With a slightly off-dry character, this expression of Furmint provides a delightful sweetness that rounds out the wine without overpowering its crisp essence. Its approachability and complexity make it a fantastic choice for a variety of occasions, whether sipped solo or paired with food.

Hungary

Hungary is an under-the-radar wine destination that produces a wide variety of hugely promising wines. Hungarian wine is nothing new: progressive, quality-focused winemaking has been taking place here since the days of the Roman Empire. Set back by Soviet-era state monopoly, Hungary's winemaking is back on track and continues to evolve, combining tradition with modernity. The result? Some truly unique wines made from indigenous varietals like Kadarka, Portugieser and Kékfrankos (reds), and Furmint, Ezerjó and Hárslevelű (whites). Bull's Blood (Egri Bikavér) is Hungary's most traditionally famous red, while sumptuously sweet Tokaji is the country's best-known wine export and was once considered the gold standard for dessert wine.
