A day tasting in Tokaji, Hungary (with lots of photos) (Tokaj, Hungary): This is made from partially botrytized clusters. It was finished in a combination of stainless and 12 months in 2 year old oak. It dials in at 121grams RS. The aromas are quite nice, showing some pleasing tropical fruits and spice. Nice pure palate, soft and elegant, though just a touch light on the acid. Very smooth though. The finish kicks up a bit on the acid front. It finishes quite nice, and develops some more interesting candied lychee flavors, coupled with spice. Quite coating textually.
