White wine grape · Vitis vinifera
A late-season white wine grape from Hungary, with Gouais blanc reported as a parent by two independent references.
Plantgrape describes Furmint as originally from Hungary and, based on published genetic analyses, probably a Gouais blanc × Alba imputotato cross; it lists Moslavac (Croatia) and Sipon (Slovenia) as official EU synonyms. UC Davis FPS independently lists Hungary as its country of origin and notes DNA analysis in Zagreb suggesting Gouais blanc parentage and identity with Moslavac.
Plantgrape describes a moderately to strongly vigorous variety with an erect bearing, sometimes susceptible to millerandage, maturing late-season about four weeks after Chasselas. These are attributed descriptions, not site or pruning prescriptions.
Plantgrape describes Furmint as sensitive to grey rot. That is a reference observation, not disease-management advice.
