Characteristics of the vintage
The 2017 vintage is characterised by a rich concentration and substantial quantities, which surprised us given the eventful growing season. After a cold January, mild early spring, cool and rainy periods were alternating with hot and dry days. The grapes reached maturity earlier than usual, the botrytis came on fully ripe grapes and developed intensely, providing highly botrytized grapes with creamy structure and beautiful aromatics.
Tasting notes
Pale gold colour. Floral nose with candied fruits, lychee, tangerine. The palate is rich with good and round acidity; mouth filling, quite broad structure, very pleasant and harmonious.
Grape varieties
88% Furmint, 6% Hárslevelű, 6% Zéta
Vinification
The clusters were destemmed followed by a short skin contact before pressing. Fermentation in stainless steel vats.
Maturing
The wine was aged for 6 months in the traditional underground cellar of Tokaj, in oak barrels of two-three wines, with a capacity of 225 litres. Bottled in September 2018.
Harvest
Careful selection of entirely botrytised bunches or part of bunches between the 2nd and 28th of October.
