THE "OSCAR WINNER" OF SWEET WINES - THE ARCHETYPE OF A BIG TOKAJI ASZÚ
The Aszú 2008 is a special blend of Furmint, Hárslevelű and Sárga muskotály (Muscat Lunel), harvested from old vines. This special sweet wine is astoundingly fragrant and honeyed, balanced and refreshing. Its complexities unfold in gorgeous waves that echo in the mouth. In every way it signifies the sweetness of life.
Tasting Note:
As the Szepsy Aszú 2008 has strong tropical fruit elements throughout with very good acid and weight, it perfectly goes with spicy dishes since the sugar content of the wine neutralizes the chili in the food and plays with the balance of the two until it reaches the point of harmony.
