“Megyer-Mountain Pearl.”
The most prized fruits of our Megyer slope create this exquisite furmint. It’s colour is light hay and it’s fragrance is dominated by salty honey and elegant barrel spices. Tasting it shows intense fruityness, silky smoothness and reveals the Megyer slope’s volcanic character.

The history of Megyer hill or slope in Sárospatak reaches back to the Middle Ages. It is most probably named after the Hungarian Megyer tribe from the era of the Hungarian conquest. The steep, south-western slope is characterised by very varied soil structures and colourful composition. There are high amounts of clay and fine grains of kaoline which results in a porous structure on the rocky ground. The wines of the slope are heavy, rich and creamy. The 20 to 30-year old vine stocks give us furmint and hárslevelű.
