DESCRIPTION
Holdvölgy Vision 2019 is a dry white wine blending 65% Furmint, 25% Hárslevelű, and 10% Kabar, sourced from the finest crus of Mád, hand-harvested in September 2019. Vinified in stainless steel tanks. Residual sugar 8.0 g/L, total acidity 6.8 g/L, alcohol 13.5%. Founded in 2004 by Pascal Demko, the Holdvölgy estate spans 28 hectares spread across seven crus of Mád, in the heart of Tokaj. Renowned for its commitment to excellence, it offers a diverse range extending from vibrant dry wines to exceptional sweet wines, highlighting the richness of volcanic soils. The aging cellar dates back to the 14th century and is one of the longest in the region. The estate also offers a modern and accessible range, 'Hold and Hollo', which captivates with its young, fresh, and dynamic style.
On the nose, white flowers and fresh fruits, enhanced by mineral notes that evoke its exceptional volcanic terroir. On the palate, a silky harmony that caresses the palate, with a fresh and elegant finish. It pairs perfectly with a hake ceviche with mango or a roasted chicken with rosemary and lemon. Serve between 7 and 9°C. Cellaring potential of 8 to 10 years.
REGION
Tokaj
Hungary
The Tokaj wine region is listed as a UNESCO world heritage site and
is only a 2h30 drive north-east of Budapest in Hungary.
This is the land of milk and honey for viticulture. A microclimate, a volcanic soil, and a little mushroom called botrytis, also known as “noble rot” all contribute to making Tokaj a fruitful location. The noble rot shrivels the ripe grapes, thus creating Aszú, the famous sweet wines of the region. These wines, filled to the brim with sweet and concentrated aromas, are the flagship product of Tokaj. In addition to Aszú, Furmint Dry and Tokaji Eszencia are also a must-try.
