The Szent Tamás winery was founded by 2 Hungarian businessmen and the son of Hungary’s most famous and influential producers- Istevan Szepsy. They firmly believe the village of MÁD in the remote Tokaj region of Hungary is one of the great wine producing areas of the world. Working with vineyards that were shaped by several volcanic eruptions millions of years ago, their goal is to ensure that the once world renowned Tokaj Crus of MÁD would capture wine world`s attention again. Currently are working with 15 hectares of old vines in 9 different Crus, the MÁD Dry Furmint was created to be a benchmark representation of the village of MÁD through the collaborative work of the Szent Tamás winery and an ever growing number of small landowners.

The village of MÁD, the most prestigious in the region of Tokaj is still composed of many plots of small growers, the aim has been to raise the viticultural standards of the growers by guaranteeing a purchase of their grapes at an above market price dependent on their working with the MÁD viticulturalists. This ensures an excellent supply of high quality grapes. The vineyards for these wines sit on the south and western sides of the hill overlooking the village and are planted on predominantly red clay, zeolite Malota and quartz rhyolite soils.

Harvested from the best vineyards from the estate, only the highest quality bunches were selected for this complex and well structured sweet wine. Whole bunches picked where the botrytised, shrivelled and healthy berries were mixed. Fermented and aged in Zempléni (Hungarian) oak. Aged for 12 months in second and third used oak to preserve fresh fruity character.
