Description
Vino Gross's Furmint Iglič-Haloze 2023 impressively demonstrates the potential of this traditional grape variety outside its Hungarian homeland. The steep slopes of Haloze in Slovenian Štajerska lend the wine exceptional freshness, minerality, and precision. Vino Gross is one of the leading producers in the region and is known for terroir-driven white wines with clear origin and great individuality.
The 2023 vintage is taut, focused, and full of energy. The characteristic acidity of Furmint provides tension and liveliness, while the mineral influence of the site gives the wine depth and structure. Instead of obvious fruit or aromatic opulence, this Furmint focuses on clarity, precision, and elegance. This combination of freshness, minerality, and character is precisely what makes it so fascinating.
The vinification is deliberately understated, allowing the grape variety, site, and vintage to shine through unadulterated. This results in a distinctive white wine with a striking personality, fine texture, and a long, mineral-driven finish that impressively reflects the signature of Vino Gross and the extraordinary potential of the Haloze region.
