MÁD MOSER is a winery in the Tokaj region of Hungary, founded by the collaboration of Mad Wine and wine expert Lenz M. Moser. The aim is to introduce a new interpretation of dry Furmint wines from this historic wine region to both national and international markets. We have been importers of the wines from Lenz Moser's portfolio for years, such as Chang Yu, New Chapter and the latest addition are now the wines of MA'D Moser.

It all started with Lenz's passion for the region - his father took him there when he was 14. His family had done a lot of business with Hungary for generations. 7 years ago, the love for Tokaj was rekindled when Lenz worked for a while with one of the big players. During this assignment, he was introduced to Rita Takaro, who was born in the region and dedicated her life to the development of the region and have remained friends ever since. Lenz and Rita went on a discovery trip to Tokaj together and decided to start their project from Tokaj. They found a great partner in Karoly Kovacs, owner of the famous Mad Wine in Mád, and Gabor Urban, his excellent winemaker.
MA'D MOSER is a new wine from the Tokaj region, from partners Mad Wine and Lenz Moser.

The common goal is to create a new type of furmint that will put Tokaj on the world map as an iconic player in the non-sweet category – on par with the best Burgundies, Californian Chardonnay, New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, German Rieslings and Austrian Grüners. This wine aims at the iconic world of white wines from all over the world.

This wine is made from 100% Furmint grapes, an indigenous Hungarian variety known for its fresh acidity and minerality. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, with yeast contact until bottling. A small percentage (10%) of the wine is aged in new 300-litre Hungarian oak barrels, which adds complexity without overpowering the fruity characteristics.

In the glass the Dry Furmint MM5 has a beautiful straw yellow color and already radiates freshness in the glass. The nose has a beautiful floral bouquet of fresh lemon, lime, gooseberry, white peach, hints of lime blossom, but also exotic harmony, perhaps a little grapefruit and a touch of vanilla. Furmint at its best - harmonious and complex. On the palate the wine is medium to full bodied with nutty-spicy lemon/lime with an abundance of fruit flavors - in harmony with the balance of elegance, real freshness and complexity. The Furmint shows itself beautifully with its delicate aromas with a super clean and long fresh, spicy finish and remarkably salty minerality, but that is just crazy given the MA'D appellations with its rocky terroir of granite, slate and shale.

The MÁD MOSER Furmint Dry MM5 is a modern interpretation of the traditional Furmint grape, presenting the freshness and complexity of the Tokaj region in an accessible way. This wine is an excellent accompaniment to seafood, shellfish, sushi, spicy dishes, chicken and various vegetables. Serve at a temperature of 8-10°C to fully develop the fresh and fruity aromas.
