This wine's name comes from the old way of referring to the vineyard from where it comes. Mandolás is one of the Oremus vineyards and it is only planted with Furmint, the noblest variety of the region.
During the weeks leading up to the harvest, the state of ripening of the grape is systematically checked and the golden yellow, health and ripe bunches are picked.
A must with great density is obtained using a delicate and gentle pressing. Fermentation is in new wood barrels, which are carefully prepared, and takes between 8 and 12 days.
The wine is aged in 136-litre small barrels, which are typical of the region.

A different expression of Tokaj
Mandolás is a surprising wine. Its essence is young, ground-breaking, revolutionary and not frightened to explore... and is able to enrich the winemaking tradition of a region as distinguished as Tokaj.
A different wine that has managed to break from the past, giving impetus to Tokaj's new present, where dry white wines, led by Mandolás, are proving to be ground-breaking.

Description
The Tokaj legend has grown and grown in its four-hundred years of history; but it was not until 1630 that the greatness of the Oremus vineyard was first spoken of. Today it is the one which receives greatest universal acclaim.
Mandolás wine, made from the grape variety Furmint, has evolved since its first vintage in 2001 until reaching vintage 2016, which is by far, the best release ever. A series of improvements have been taking place in all of its processes, from the vineyard up to its release to market, coexisting in perfect harmony, the most modern winemaking with an ancestral tradition.
In the vineyard we have conducted specific plot selection at less than 200 meters above sea level, protected by the northern winds and an adequate planting density, deeply caring for grape maturity level, in order to obtain an optimal healthy golden ripe cluster selection.
At winery level, changes in new oak barrel toasting used in our fermentation process along with frequent and controlled batonages, restores the minerality of the volcanic soil, characteristic of the region.
Mandolás 2016 presents us with perfect richness and fine aromas, combined with a fresh natural acidity. It is the result of a unique climate and soil in a world, that demands a laborious and careful production. The legend of Mandolás continues.General information

It was a mild autumn, with cold nights and warm days, such that the Furmint grapes' typical acidity was strengthened. A classic harvest for the production of excellent wines, both dry and sweet. Undoubtedly a very good vintage.
