Fresh, clean, and yet surprisingly rich. That's the 2023 Ma'd Moser Furmint Dry MM5 in a nutshell.

Ma'd Moser and the band with Tokaj

The wine comes from Tokaj , the famous Hungarian region known primarily for sweet wines. Caroline and Lenz Moser deliberately chose to make dry Furmint. Their vineyards are located around the village of Mád, where volcanic soils and abundant sunshine give the grapes strength and vibrancy. Tokaj has a long history with wine, but Ma'd Moser demonstrates that the region is much more than just Aszú.

The Furmint grape

Furmint is the pride of Hungary. It's a grape with robust acidity, which imparts freshness while simultaneously creating a waxy texture on the palate. You'll often taste citrus, ripe apple, and sometimes a salty note. In a dry style, like this MM5, Furmint reveals a completely different side than the classic sweet variety. It's exciting, vibrant, and often surprisingly versatile at the table.

Vineyards and climate of Ma'd Moser

The vines are planted on ancient volcanic soils rich in minerals. This is reflected in a slightly smoky note. Tokaj has a temperate continental climate, with warm summers and cool nights. This contrast allows the grapes to ripen slowly and retain their freshness. The vineyards are situated on slopes that receive plenty of sun, which gives the berries extra concentration.

How Ma'd Moser Furmint Dry MM5 is made

The wine is made entirely from Furmint and vinified dry. This means there's no residual sweetness in the glass, just pure grape expression. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel to preserve the fruit and freshness. The wine then ages for a while on the lees, adding roundness and complexity. The result: taut and refreshing, yet with depth and tension that lingers.

Flavour profile of the 2023 Ma'd Moser Furmint Dry MM5

In the glass, the wine is clear and light straw yellow. The nose opens with citrus, green apple, and a hint of peach. On the palate, it is taut, with lively acidity and a slightly creamy edge thanks to its lees aging. The finish is long and mineral, with a touch of bitterness that keeps things interesting. A wine that can be enjoyed on its own or alongside dishes like grilled fish, Asian dishes, or fresh salads.

Interesting facts

  • The Mosers work according to a clear vision: Tokaj should not only be about sweet, but also about fresh, dry wines.
  • MM5 refers to the selection within their dry Furmints: a tighter, fruit-driven style that immediately appeals.

Tokaj is famous for its centuries-old wine history, and Ma’d Moser adds a fresh, modern layer to it.

Ma’d Moser winery in Tokaj

The Ma’d Moser winery is a relatively new name in Tokaj, but its roots run deep. It was born out of the collaboration between the Austrian Moser wine family and the Hungarian Tokaj region. That connection brings together experience, tradition, and new ideas. The village of Mád, where the vineyards are located, has been the beating heart of Tokaj for centuries and breathes wine culture in every corner.

MÁD MOSER was founded through the partnership between Mad Wine and wine expert Lenz M. Moser. The goal is to introduce a new interpretation of dry Furmint wines from this historic wine region to both national and international markets. MÁD MOSER focuses entirely on dry Furmint wines, aiming to surprise and captivate wine lovers worldwide with this fresh style.

History of Ma’d Moser

Tokaj is one of the oldest classified wine regions in the world. As early as the 17th century, Tokaji Aszú was exported to royal courts across Europe. Ma’d Moser builds on that legacy but also looks ahead. The winery was established to combine the unique conditions of Tokaj with a fresh and international outlook. As a result, classic grapes like Furmint and Hárslevelű are given a contemporary stage.

Vineyards and grape varieties

The vineyards of Ma’d Moser surround the village of Mád, where volcanic soils dominate the terroir. This volcanic bedrock gives the wines their signature tension and minerality. Furmint takes the lead: a grape that excels both in dry styles and in sweet Aszú wines. Hárslevelű is also planted, often adding a softer tone to blends. Together they form the recognizable Tokaj profile: freshness, depth, and a long finish.

Climate in Tokaj

The Tokaj region has a mild continental climate. Summers are warm, winters cold. What makes the area truly special are the autumn mists. These fogs, rising from the Bodrog and Tisza rivers, trigger the noble rot (Botrytis cinerea) needed for the famous sweet Tokaji Aszú. For the dry wines, it’s the mix of sun and coolness that counts: ripe grapes that still keep their fresh acidity. That contrast gives the wines their energy.

Fun facts about Ma’d Moser

  • The Austrian Moser family is also known for their biodynamic vineyards in the Kremstal.
  • The winery combines Hungarian tradition with a modern, international approach to winemaking.
  • In addition to the well-known Aszú, Ma’d Moser produces crisp, dry Furmint that is gaining attention worldwide.
  • The village of Mád is considered one of the most beautiful wine spots in Tokaj, with historic cellars and baroque churches.
