Furmint has become one of Château Chizay’s signature wines. This dry white wine, aged in oak barrels, demonstrates the exceptional potential of Furmint, a rare grape variety in Ukraine. Combined with oak aging, it reveals a complex, multilayered character while expressing the unique terroir of Transcarpathia.

Furmint is one of the few white grape varieties that responds exceptionally well to oak aging. The wine matures for nine months in oak barrels, developing greater aromatic intensity, a creamy texture, and remarkable depth of flavor. At the same time, it retains the freshness, vibrant acidity, and distinctive minerality characteristic of the variety. The combination of Furmint’s natural aging potential and extended maturation in oak results in an elegant wine with excellent cellaring potential.
