  August 5, 2011 - Paul Hobbs Winemaker's Dinner (Paul Hobbs, Sebastopol, CA): I think Hobbs imported this at some point. In any case, he told a great story about working as a consulting wine maker in Hungary: how rustic and agrarian the region is, and how the tradition began dying under Soviet occupation and continues its decline today. This wine was a bit simple for my preference, not spicy or racy but rather a good companion for food. It paired well with the honey and white truffles accompanying the fromage.

  August 1, 2009 - Could've been a bit more exciting. Otherwise a fine wine with nice caramel notes.

  March 19, 2007 - The New Face of Hungary (Manchester): A remarkably minerally nose with some very creamy caramel notes. Very direct attack. It’s not immediately sweet at first, when there’s a great elegance and an orange caramel flavour. The sweetness comes along later, especially on the finish. It’s not the most balanced of Tokajis in that respect. Very Good+.
