More about this wine from Tokaj, Hungary
You don’t come across dry Furmint all that often, but when you do, they should behave like this. This Evolúció is a classic example that comes from Tokaj - a region synonymous with sweet Tokaji wines.

This dry Furmint is firmly planted in the ripe stone fruit category showing notes of peach, nectarine and apricot. The wine is so ripe it is nearly tropical in nature, but with a core of stern minerality and brisk acidity. There is a bit of residual sugar here, but it is backed out by a subtle nutty bitterness and a pinch of mint. Flavors of summer fruits with white pear, citrus and some almond make for a grand finish.
