Notes & Pairings
The wine is characterized by a fine nose of tropical fruits, peach and apricot, balanced by a lively acidity and kind sweetness on the palate. A long, smooth taste is giving an elegant finish. This kind of balance between high sugar, high acid and low alcohol are what make Tokaji wines magical. Enjoy it with dessert, goose liver dishes, and blue cheeses.
