Evolucio Dry Furmint 2013 - CoolVines The Evolucio Furmint is a crisp, vibrant, dry white wine from the Tokaji area of Hungary-famous for its sweet dessert wines. Unoaked, it bursts with citrus and stone fruit notes. Pair with goat cheese, grilled snapper, Thai dishes, and warm weather. Located at the foothills of the Zemplen Mountains (in North-East Hungary), along the Bodrog river and at the confluence of the Bodrog and the Tisza Rivers, the Tokaj wine region is specially shaped in interaction with the millennial and still living tradition of wine production.

The legal base of delimitation of the wine region is among the first in the world and dates back to 1737 when the decree of Emperor Charles VI (Charles III, King of Hungary) established the area as a closed wine region.
