Royal Tokaji Late Harvest 2023, 500ml

This blend of 50% Furmint, 42% Hárslevelű, and 8% Sárgamuskotály is sourced from the region’s top vineyards, including Mézes Mály and Nyulászó. The fruit was harvested in late autumn, allowing for a combination of overripe grapes and a small proportion of botrytized berries. The grapes were fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks using natural yeasts to preserve the fresh, primary fruit characteristics. The wine aged for 6 months in 300-liter and 500-liter Hungarian oak casks to add complexity and texture. Following the wood ageing, the wine was blended and stayed in the bottle for 3 months prior to release.

Tasting Note:
The nose is fragrant with aromas of white peach, apricot, and exotic floral notes. The palate is light and elegant, showing a delicate sweetness balanced by the hallmark acidity of the Furmint grape. Flavors of honeyed pear and citrus peel lead to a clean, refreshing finish.
