The Icewine harvest of 2020 was very limited again. Only a few Icewines could be harvested. We at HAFNER Winery could celebrate another innovation: the first Icewine made from the traditional sweet-wine-variety “Furmint” was made! World wide the first one! The furmint grape is used in Hungary for the famous Tokaij-wine but as an Icewine, it is new!
Harvestd by hand, 4 months after the regular harvest time, in the first night which offered less than -8°C /17.5 F: the 12. January 2021
Great complexity! Fine nose to ripe apples and peaches. Good balanced with a typical touch of freeze and ice. A easy going wine with a complex and balanced body. Nice sweetness and acidity therefore best choice for desserts and cakes with fruits,
