2016 ŠIPON / FURMINT ILOVCI White wine

2019 Šipon / Fur­mint Ilovci

White wine

Me­dium deep golden col­our. Re­strained and re­fined, var­ied nose show­ing white flowers, but­ter, hawthorn also some apricots and touch of charred wood – very much in Bur­gundy style.

Dry on the pal­ate, me­dium bod­ied, with a pleas­ant slightly oily tex­ture. Higher acid­it­ies are quick to tell the cool cli­mate ori­gin of the wine and the nat­ive vari­ety which is ex­press­ing it very well. It is much more op­u­lent on the pal­ate com­pared to the nose. The char­ac­ter is in­tense with plenty of ten­sion and per­sist­ence. A premium ex­pres­sion of a ma­ture Fur­mint from a great vine­yard and a clas­sical vin­tage.

To be laid down!

Raw or slightly roas­ted sea food, such as scal­lops or salad with soft cheeses.

  • Furmint : 100 %

Cold April and May broad­cas­ted a rather late har­vest, but a very hot June al­most com­pletely com­pensated the delay, though not com­pletely. July and Au­gust were warm but not hot and nice weather in Septem­ber en­abled grapes to be picked well into Oc­to­ber. 2019 brought very good yields and qual­ity is very de­pend­ent of the skills of the wine­makers. At Dveri-​Pax we are very happy with the res­ults. We pro­duced clas­sic wines with pro­found vari­etal aro­matic pro­files and mod­er­ate al­co­hol levels typ­ical for the re­gion.

18 months in big Slavo­nian oak. Lees, stir­ring.
