It was an outstanding vintage. 2018 was particularly warm resulting ripe, complex wines with excellent flavour concentration. The natural acidity of the Furmint grape and the supporting volcanic terroir create the strong acid back bone that made this wine so well balanced.

This wine has a fantastic flavour intensity and outstanding acidity. On the nose it shows ripe apricot, mango notes and on the palette, it has a moderate level of sweetness with some classic Tokaji stony minerality which makes this wine such a good match with gently sweet deserts such as cottage cheese pancake or chestnut strudel
