Heidi Schröck & Söhne Furmint 2021

The fruit for Heidi Schröck's dry Furmint is sourced from the 30-year-old Turner vineyard. Furmint is a very sensitive grape variety that requires a lot of attention. The sandy loam soils with gravel provide the best conditions for the variety and result in a mineral character in the finished wine. The site is managed under sustainable viticultural practices. No herbicides or insecticides are used, and local plants are used as cover crops. The grapes were all hand harvested and quickly transported to the winery to retain freshness. After a long and gentle pressing, the juice was transferred into large Acacia casks for fermentation with indigenous yeasts. Following fermentation, the wine spent 9 months ageing on its fine lees to add texture and complexity. Golden yellow colour, the Heidi Schröck & Söhne Furmint has a unique profile with aromas of golden apple and quince as well as delicate notes of chamomile and hay. The palate is beautifully textured and crisp with a concentrated finish.

Vintage Availability

We endeavour to display accurate and current vintages on all our wines listed on the website; however, from time to time stocks of the vintage listed do become exhausted. If this is the case with your order we will always contact you to recommend another vintage of the same wine, if it is still available. If the vintage of a wine is important to you then please leave a note at checkout advising us of this. 

 

Stock Availability

As we are retail stockists, selling from our Ledston shop as well as online, it makes it difficult for us to show a 'real-time' inventory of our wines and spirits online. As such, very occasionally, a wine may be out of stock that the website has allowed you to order.

To ensure a timely delivery, we are happy to substitute your order with a similar wine of equal or higher value and at no additional cost to you!

If this is not an acceptable solution please advise us in the 'Add A Comment' section at the checkout.
