Furmint is a native white grape variety from eastern Hungary. Mainly used to make Tokaji, blended with Harslevelü, white Muscat and yellow Muscat, and Oremus (Furmint x Bouvier). The Furmint grape has early sprouting and late ripening, which explains its predisposition to give life to intense and complex wines. Its clusters are sensitive to botrytis (which can take the form of noble rot) and frost, but it resists drought well.
