The nose first presents a smoky note and very ripe fruits such as apricot, dry pineapple, quince and hazelnut. The ventilation softens the smoky touch to make room for the fruit paste. We therefore find the previous fruits also in this version. Dried fruit, honey, vanilla, blond tobacco, roasting, date, and dried fig are there. There are a lot of things, it's very rich. On the palate, the attack is on the sugar but immediately the acidity arrives to create a lively balance with the fat of the wine. It’s surprising such a balance. You don't feel any heaviness or saturation in your taste buds. It's so long, as you would expect. Enormous aging potential!

Tokaji is a wine region located in Hungary, known for producing sweet wines made from the Furmint grape. The region has a long history dating back to the 16th century when the first Tokaji wines were produced. The unique climate and soil conditions of the region, combined with the use of the noble rot, Botrytis cinerea, result in the production of some of the world's most sought-after sweet wines.

The production of Tokaji wines involves a process known as Aszú, where the grapes are left on the vine to dry and concentrate their sugars. The grapes are then harvested and crushed, and the resulting juice is fermented in oak barrels. The wine is then aged for several years, during which time it develops its characteristic flavours of honey, apricot, and orange peel.

In addition to sweet wines, Tokaji also produces dry white wines made from the Furmint grape. These wines are crisp and refreshing, with notes of green apple and citrus.

Overall, Tokaji is a region that produces some of the world's most unique and complex wines. Its long history and dedication to traditional winemaking techniques have earned it a reputation as one of the world's great wine regions.
