Furmint Adventures Episode 2: Tokaj-Hétszőlő Vineyards1 min read

Posted on January 15, 2015January 12, 2015 by 1WineDude

in 1WineDude TV, going pro, on the road

The second installment of my (drunken) Tokaj Furmint adventures is now available, embedded below for your viewing edu-tainment!

In this week’s video, you’ll meet the affable (and very, very tall) Gergely Makai, winemaker at the famed Tokaj-Hétszőlő. In this episode, Gergely and I manage to combine modern winemaking, Jedi Knight mind tricks, one of the coolest wine cellar spaces on the planet, and European history dating back to the early 1500s, involving kings and Ben-Hur-style chariots.

Yeah, I really, actually do get paid to do this shizz! For the full run-down of the vids released so far – and for the detailed scoop on dry Hungarian Furmint wines in general – head on over to FurmintUSA.com.

Enjoy, preferably with a glass of Hungarian vino:

    Interesting video. Why is it we don't see more Hungarian wine in the US? Is it because the vineyards are still young?

      Thanks, Bryan. I think it's because no one knows it, and the demand just isn't there yet. But the wines are geekily wonderful, so I sincerely hope that efforts like this one will shine some light on that.
