Bright and beautiful, this harmonious version integrates mouthwatering acidity with a rich range of pureed apricot, dried raspberry and orange marmalade, with hints of praline, crystallized honey and sea salt. There's a plushness to the texture without being weighty; this is long and expressive on the finish. Furmint and Hárslevelü. Drink now through 2038.

Don't let the richness of all the poached peach, pear and apricot aromas fool you: bright, beautiful acidity underscores every sip this stunning, structured wine. Expect notes of honeysuckle and candied ginger among the heavenly stewed fruits on the palate, plus a long, elegant finish.
Winemaker Notes
Intense nose of attractive grapefruit, apricot and spice, elegant and floral. Rich and full-flavoured on the palate balanced by botrytis-induced crisp acidity with a long, opulent, vivacious finish. After a cold winter, temperatures rose rapidly in April and May, stimulating vigorous growth in the vines. Harvest was the earliest in living memory and probably the earliest ever, providing good volumes of healthy, ripe grapes with firm acidity and excellent quality. The warm, dry autumn was more conducive to drying the grapes than to botrytis, but sporadic showers promoted noble rot and enabled us to pick a very satisfactory amount of fine quality Aszú berries. Overall, a record-breaking and outstanding vintage, ripe, rich, and balanced.
