ROYAL TOKAJI LATE HARVEST 2017

Pale gold colour with delicate citrus and spicy aromas. Light and refreshing on the palate with hints of white peach and honey. It has an excellent acid balance, a smooth, silky texture and a clean, long, crisp finish. After a chilly January, the temperature has rose step by step and continuously. Relatively high temperatures in summer contributed to a quite early ripening and the early set of the botrytis. An outstanding vintage with nice balance in the dries and unbelievable richness in the sweets.

Other Vintages

The grapes were harvested in October and at the beginning of November. Destemming was followed by one night maceration. After pressing, the settled juice was fermented in tanks and then the most of the wine lots were matured for 5 – 6 months in barrels.
Delicious on its own, as an aperitif, or with spicy cuisine such as Thai, fresh fruits, or any fruit-based dessert.
Serve cool.
