You are drawn in by an intense aroma of summer honey, lime blossom and sunflower. On the palate, ripe fruity notes are accompanied by the volcanic minerality of Tokaj, which combine with delicate acidity and considerable residual sugar to create an indulgent sweet experience.
Try as an accompaniment to Asian fusion dishes, ham and of course desserts. It goes very well with blue cheese including Stilton and Roquefort, as well as charcuterie.
