Balassa Szent Tamás Furmint Tokaj 2019 750ml
12 900 Ft
One of the most varied and difficult soil conditions on the edge of the Mád basin. Red clay, interspersed with variable riolitic tufa, charred, hardened tree trunks, often with horny, zeolitic rocks. The wines of this area are generally characterised by three things: elegance, complexity and minerality. This is the case with the 2019 St. Thomas. Different accents of plantations of varying ages, just the right barrel ageing, just the right resting time. A wine with great ageing potential, with a long opening and many, many layers.
The winery was founded in 2005 by winemaker István Balassa. The 17.6 hectare site is located in 11 vineyards in the wine region, in 45 parcels around Tokaj, Tarcal and Mád.
Introduction: "The story started with a beer in the summer of 99...incredible as it may seem, I never thought I would become a winemaker. Then this incredible profession quickly took hold, permeated and then captivated me. A winemaker's job is problem solving, which surrounds the creative process of making. The most important task is to preserve as best as possible the quality that is hidden in the grapes at the moment of harvest. Because from that point on, every step changes the experience, and if the winemaker is excellent, he or she can give that experience back to the consumer in a very profound way."
