One of several truly brilliant dry Furmints produced at Szepsy, Urbán 73 comes from a tiny piece of a 42 hectare parcel. The rocky volcanic soils here are steep and intensely rocky. The resulting wine is marked vintage after vintage by its density of extract and bracing acidity. An incredibly fine version of dry Tokaji!
