Blend of Furmint (97%) and a Muscat clone (3%). Light golden color. Aromas of orchard and tropical fruits, lychee, fragrant white flowers and wet slate. Flavors of green apple, pineapple, grapefruit, apricot, white peach and a touch of honey. Distinct mineral/flinty note on the medium-plus finish. Medium-plus acidity and a silky texture. Very food friendly. Quite fresh and clean. Thanking Petey and Kase for sharing this wine during 2026 Cape May, NJ vacation. — 12 days ago

Finally opened this one at the right time of year. Mom’s Christmas gift a few years ago from my homeland. Ripe peach, dried apricot, golden raisin, honeysuckle, mandarin zest and orange. Volcanic edge. Very nice acidity on a sweet wine. Great for holiday desserts. — 9 months ago

3.4. A very good bargain for a smooth Bordeaux, nice mix of fruits, minerals and tannin, somewhat mid-bodied, with smooth finish. Deep red with good nose. On sale for $11.99, regularly $14.99. — 3 years ago

Who knew Hungary had dry white wines?! An adventurous bold choice by Maia that paid dividends on a hot summer day at 306. Mineral. Dry. Light. Smooth. Delicious. — a month ago

Light gold with hints of pale green to the edges, the nose on this is very fresh and somewhat vegetal, with notes fresh cold celery alongside the hints of green papaya , baked Citroen tart, and wet river stone. Lots of good tight bubbles, a light to medium body and a real energetic, mineral freshness over a palate of tart yellow stone fruits, a slight yeasty, baked note, but very subtle, mostly mineral and the crisp fruit. Very nice! — 4 months ago

Outstanding. Nectarine, apricot, candied orange peel, and wildflower honey saturate the palate. Not overly sweet at all, with acidity and sweetness in perfect balance. Finish is super long, with apricot honey notes lingering on the palate seemingly indefinitely. Great finish to meal, and paired perfectly with Madeira-caramelized fig tart with cardamom ice cream. — 3 months ago

The 2013 Tokaji Aszú 5 Puttonyos, aged for 20 months in oak barrels, has a perfumed, honeyed bouquet with mango and yellow plum. It doesn't quite have the complexity of the 2014. The palate is well balanced with a pure entry, a keen line of acidity, orange zest-tinged honeyed fruit and nougat and hazelnut notes on the finish. The palate has a tad more complexity than the aromatics, but overall, it is very fine, if not the long-term prospect of other vintages. (Neal Martin, Vinous, April 2024)
