Tastes

Amber in colour, with a strikingly full bouquet featuring aromas of dried fruit. Figs, medlar and comb-honey stand out in the rich range of flavours which opens up in the taste and is based on a good balance between acidity and sweetness. This is a very concentrated wine, which perhaps explains why its complexity is still developing.

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