Notes & Pairings

Whole cluster pressed and fermented in stainless steel. After primary, about half spends 2 months on the lees in Hungarian oak barrel while the rest stays on the lees in stainless. The two lots are blended and then bottled without fining or filtering. While we’d prefer to give this wine a few years before release, Dorka recommends a little shake to move the sediment around and jump start the bottle. It’s recognizably Tokaj right off the bat but in a far more raw yet ready to drink fashion.
