Weingut Günter u. Regina Triebaumer Furmint Rust 2023, 0,75 L

Furmint, a white grape variety once widespread across the monarchy a century ago, now finds its elegant rarity predominantly in Austria's Rust. Extensive plantings also thrive in Hungary's Tokaji region and Slovenia. The Triebaumer family has nurtured these vines for decades, and Günter excels in crafting this highly intriguing white wine—a standout in any tasting and a conversation starter among friends.

Yellow fruit dominates the glass: Williams pear, luscious pineapple, and a hint of quince zest. Close your eyes, and envision a sweeping meadow ablaze with yellow and white blooms under a fruit-laden creeper tree.

A harmonious blend of spring and autumn unfolds—dry, vibrant, invigorating, with complex acidity that's robust yet balanced. Delicate sea buckthorn undertones intertwine seamlessly, carried by a lingering lime zest. This wine embodies elegance and intrigue simultaneously, pairing beautifully with a range of dishes from home-cooked meals to bean strudel or a hearty farmhouse bread snack.
