Hungarian White Wine

Hungarian white wines showcase an impressive variety of grapes and terroirs across the country's various regions, offering something interesting for every palate.

What are the most popular Hungarian dry white wines?

Furmint is the principal variety of the world-renowned Tokaj region, used for producing crisp and refreshing dry Tokaji wines that reflect the volcanic terroir. For those looking to experience a more approachable side of Tokaj, the native Hárslevelű grape is a great option.

Wines made from Irsai Olivér are typically characterised by an intense aroma reminiscent of grape blossoms. A light body normally pairs with lower alcohol and a refreshing fruitiness, making it perfect for warm summer days. The grape was used to develop the impossibly named but widely beloved Cserszegi Fűszeres, which yields an even more fragrant drink.

Unique Hungarian wines include Juhfark, known as the 'Wine of the Wedding Nights' since it was widely believed to increase the likelihood of a baby boy being born, as well as Olaszrizling, with the best vintages coming from the gentle rolling slopes of the shores of Lake Balaton.

Some international varieties have also found a second home in Hungary, with Sauvignon Blanc being the perfect example, blending a reductive New World style with its Old World charm.
