2017 was a classic Tokaj vintage so to speak. Thanks for the warm summer and the moderating influence of the Bodrog river and some summer rain fall. The wines show the typical “Tokaji” minerality and freshness in balance with well-defined fruit characteristics.
This wine has a fresh, crisp style with some red apple, nectarine and grapefruit notes along with a touch of roasted peanut. It is also now showing some petrol notes due to the high minerality and aging capability.
It is a perfect wine for soft cheeses like Brie or Camembert, but can also be paired with fish and creamy dishes such as dauphinoise potato.
