Tokaji Szamorodni Dry
Furmint, Hárslevelű, Sárgamuskotály (yellow muscat) blend. Szamorodni means ‘the way it is,’ where whole bunches with a high proportion of botrytised grapes are harvested and fermented together until dry in oak barrels. There is also a veil of flor that develops, like the non-oxidative Sherry & Vin Jaune.
Tasting Note: Aromas of honey, brown butter, dried quince, white pepper spice, and pleasant rancio notes on the nose. Fresh on the palate with dried orchard fruit, salted nuts and aromas & flavours change with each sip. Saline mineral on the lengthy finish. Very complex & intriguing.
