My Friends Make Wine
On An Extinct Volcano
3 Dry Whites, One Volcano
Age-Worthy, 5 To 10 Years Old
Shipping Included
I Don't Just Sell Their Wine
I Know The People Who Make It
Extinct Volcano
Vines rooted in basalt and volcanic tuff
Tiny Region
Often called Hungary's smallest
Family Run
Low intervention, small production
Gábor and Zsófi are close friends, so when I say family-run, I mean I know the family.
I picked these three to show what one volcano does to three completely different grapes. Same soil, same cellar, same two people.
The only variable is the grape
- ✓Made by friends. Gábor and Zsófi at Fekete Pince

- ✓All dry. Hungarian white doesn't automatically mean sweet
- ✓Hands-off winemaking. Hand-harvested, native yeast, unfined, unfiltered

On The Volcano…
Fekete Pince, Juhfark 2019
Juhfark means "sheep's tail," named for the long, droopy shape of its grape bunches. Somló is where it's most at home, so you won't see it on many wine lists. Fermented in 1,000-liter Hungarian oak, then at least two years in tank before release. Light, dry, high acid, and seriously mineral.
Try This
Fekete Pince, Furmint 2021
Furmint is Hungary's star white grape, and this is it bone dry. Four hours of skin contact, native yeast fermentation in 1,000-liter Hungarian oak, and only 1,400 bottles made. If you like crisp, salty, coastal whites, start with this one.
Try This
Fekete Pince, Hárslevelű 2016
A July hailstorm wiped out about two-thirds of the 2016 crop, so this is a tiny vintage: 1,300 bottles. It spent 10 months in old oak and then another 36 months in tank before bottling. Tropical on the nose, then strikingly fresh and mineral once you sip. A 2016 white that still tastes this alive is a good party trick.

Your Usual White
vs. My Friends' Wine
Your go-to white is fine. I'm just saying there's a lot more out there, and this is an easy way to find out what you've been missing.
The Usual Supermarket White
- The same three or four grapes you already know
- Often made at big volume to taste the same every year
- No idea who actually grew it or made it
- Made to be drunk within a year or two, then forgotten
The Somló Bundle
- Made by two people I know personally
- Grown on the slopes of an extinct volcano
- Native yeast, hand-harvested, unfined and unfiltered
- Age-worthy whites, now 5 to 10 years old

The Honest FAQ
Is this a subscription?
No. This is a one-time purchase. You won't be charged again unless you choose to order more.
Aren't Hungarian whites sweet?
Some are. Hungary is famous for sweet Tokaji, so I get why people assume that. But all three of these are dry, with high acidity and a lot of minerality.
Wait, isn't white wine supposed to be drunk young?
Most of it, sure. These aren't most whites. Somló wines have serious natural acidity, and they've had a reputation for aging well for well over a century. Records from the late 1800s show 20- and 30-year-old Somló vintages competing for prizes. Gábor and Zsófi also hold their wines back for years before release (the Hárslevelű spent 10 months in oak and another 36 in tank), so a 10-year-old white from them is exactly what these wines are built for.
I've never heard of these grapes. Will I like them?
If you like crisp, mineral whites, you're in good shape. Honestly, not knowing the grape is the fun part. Start with the Furmint if you want something a little more familiar, then work your way to the Juhfark.
Can I buy these wines individually instead of the bundle?
Yes. All three bottles are listed individually on the UNPINNED site if you fall for one and want more. But the bundle saves you money compared to buying all three separately, since shipping is included.
How fast will it ship?
We typically ship within 1 to 2 business days of your order.
Where does UNPINNED ship?
Most U.S. states, shipping included. We currently can't ship to AL, MS, SD, TN, or UT.
