'Best Buy', Wine & Spirits: "Crisp with green herb and light floral notes, this is a light, simple welschriesling. Sip it with appetizers... (Apr 2011)"
This 2009 Olaszrizling (aka Welschriesling or Italian Riesling) comes from vines located around the villages of Vokany and Nagyharsany on bound loam soils in the DHC - Villány. The vines are an average of 25 years of age. The wine is lemony clean and hydrating, nothing to fuss over, just to enjoy. Serve with salted nuts as a cocktail or with arugula salad and cold chicken for a light meal.

92 points Wine Spectator: "Lean and sinewy, this white tempers its sweetness with a racy structure. Orange peel, dried apricot and hard lemon candy notes are joined by a salty element on the finish. Drink now through 2020. (6/30/10)"

A light, refreshing wine, with pleasant aromas of spring. A native Hungarian variety, Cserszegi Füszeres exhibits a fragrance similar to that of the Muscat grape and the gentle spiciness of a Gewürztraminer.
This unpronounceable grape has a lovely grapey, floral/aromatic nose and a dry palate that shows a slightly spicy edge. Fresh, crisp, acidic, and very tasty. Pairs well with salads, light seafood, and spicy Asian cuisine.

91 points Wine Enthusiast: "[$20/375ml list] For $20, this bargain basement Tokaji is pretty unbelievable. Abundantly floral and honeyed on the nose, it’s deeply concentrated on the palate, with layers of luscious figs and peaches, accented by lanolin and beeswax. Creamy and unctuous on the tongue, yet clean and fresh on the finish, with orange-inflected acidity that lingers. Alcohol 9.5%. (May 2012)"
90 points Wine Spectator: "[$20/375ml list] A medium-sweet, racy white, offering dried apricot, candied orange peel and grapefruit notes. Juicy acidity keeps the finish moving, with hints of anise and wild flowers. Drink now through 2018. 1,007 cases made. (2/29/12)"
90 points Wine & Spirits: "[$20 list] A fresh take on Tokaji, this is vivid with sweet tangerine flavor and furmint’s electric acidity. Creamy and sweet yet light in feel, it’s balanced for fresh fruit or light desserts, like figs split open and stuffed with goat cheese. It’s especially impressive for a vintage marked by heavy October rains. (Dec 2012)"

Wine Enthusiast: "[$13 list] White flower and pink bubblegum notes lend a slightly confected tone to this semisweet Hungarian sparkling wine, but it’s an undeniably drinkable, peach-flavored sip, with sharp effervescence and a tasty sugar-cookie finish. (Dec 2012)"
Importer notes: "Fortuna is a sweet sparkling blend of Muscat Lunel, Muscat Ottonel, Irsai Olivér, and Pearl of Csaba. Combined, these four extremely aromatic varieties create a symphonic array of spice, blossom and tropical fruit one would expect from Moscato D’Asti but with twice the effervescence, spice, and an acidity that makes it decidedly Hungarian. Elegant, beautiful golden in color, and surprisingly light considering the residual sugar, expect sweet grapefruit, gardenia, lime and Brioche flavors. This is a go-to sparkling when fruit is baked with virtually any kind of dough or cream -- think Crostatas, Tarts, Zabaglione, dumplings and pies. If you’re roasting pears, peaches, apricots or plums, please drink this wine. Alcohol 7.0%. Residual sugar: 70 g/l."
