Tastes

An unusual complex Aszú with a fine bouquet, blended from Furmint grapes base wine with Linden leave grapes Aszú-berries. The intensive, fruity bouquet and the pleasant acidities reconcile perfectly to an unobtrusive, elegant structure of the aromas. The basic sweetness of the wine can be felt only as a hint. The wine convinces through its complexity and its perfect balance between the acids and the sweetness. A lovely wine whose distinct personality fully developed the strengths the nature gave to this vintage. Recommended temperature: 11° C

„A sok szem egy lélekké érik,
Bukéja pára, száll az égig,
S ereszkedik a pince-hűsbe,
Hol gyertyafény, belémerülve
Mutatja izzó tisztaságát.”
