After a cool spring, the vintage was characterised by a hot summer with temperatures often above 35℃ and with persistent showers, accelerating maturation and leading to an early harvest. October saw fantastic weather with high temperatures, sunny days, and no precipitation. These conditions were ideal for the Aszú berry formation and at last, we were able to collect berries in large quantities, a generous proportion of which are included in this blend.
There was an abundance of ripe fruit and the overall quality was excellent. An outstanding vintage with a nice balance in the dry wines and unbelievable richness in the sweets.
Excellent quality and rich Furmint and Hárslevelű grapes were harvested in the first part of November to make this wine. After pressing, the settled juices were fermented in tanks and maturation took place for nearly 2 years in barrels.
It is the traditional late harvest of Tokaji.
Serve at 12°C on its own or with foie gras. Also ideal with aromatic and spicy Asian cuisine, fresh fruits, and light desserts.
