From legendary Tokaj winemaker Istvan Szepsy. Who does not love this wine, doesn't like to sun either. The deep golden wine has moderately intense embodied smell. Concentrated yet gentle, floral fruit, orange peel and apricot jam aroma. The time healed harmonious unity silky citrus and mineral sweet flavors.

Grape Varietal: 70% Furmint, 30% Hárslevelű. Primary Vineyards: Danczka berries, Lapis base wine. Alcohol Content: 10.2%. Residual Sugar: 197 g/l. Total Acidity: 9.5 g/l. Fermentation: 100% Hungarian oak. Barrel Aging: 42 months in 2.25 hL Hungarian oak. 2002 Aszú blend is a light shade of gold with greenish hues, reflecting the results of a spectacular vintage. The wine exudes focused flavors and aromas of ripe tropical fruit and orange blossoms. Beautiful acidity balances the sweetness to perfection creating a long, elegant texture in the mouth that never feels heavy. Still in its infancy, a grand wine that will slowly open over time and continue to develop additional layers with proper cellaring.
