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
Tokaj, a wine region listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site, lies two and a half hours from Budapest in northeast Hungary. This land brings together precious elements for growing grapes: a microclimate, volcanic soil and a little known fungus, botrytis, or noble rot. It turns overripe grapes into shrivelled berries and is key to making the sweet wines of the region, called aszú. With their concentrated aromas and sugars, these are the flagship of Tokaj. The region also adds dry Furmint and Tokaji Eszencia to its list of white wines.
