Furmint February @ Vine St. Friday, February 28th

Furmint: to know her is to love her. Best known in the storied Tokaj region of Hungary where it's used in the production of sweet wines, it also can produce mind altering dry white wines as well--high in acidity and redolent of enticing tropical fruits. Furmint is perhaps our favorite when made in the hands of Samuel Tinon--whose single vineyard dry Furmints are both blazingly alive, insanely complex and simply delicious.

 
On the final day of this short month, join us in celebrating this gorgeous grape!  We'll be joined by Brian Stapleton from Danch & Granger Selections, an incredible importer of wines from this region. Come taste through 5 wines--three single vineyard Samuel Tinon Furmints, one of his dry styled sweet wines as well as a fun Hungarian red. And to top it off, we're serving a traditional Hungarian stew whipped up by Brian.
