– Sauska with its precise, crystal clear, single vineyard Furmint wines (Birsalmás and Medve) and also the sparkling wines including Furmint Brut 2016.
– Zsirai Winery with their single vineyard Furmints with character – no wonder, the winery is run by two passionate and talented sisters – and their brand new, brut nature sparkling wine!
