A lovely textbook Tokaji Furmint, with the stone fruit and bracing minerality that comes with that designation. — 3 years ago
I had the pleasure of visiting the Szepsy family last fall—the time spent with them gave me insight into why the Tokaji region, famed for it's sweet wines is now transitioning to more dry-style offerings. The Dry by Tokaj, an entry level in their portfolio is the color of straw, with vivid aromas of bosc pear, lemon drop, white grapefruit, and jasmine. The region's signature minerality is more pronounced on the palate than on the nose in this bottling, one that is tangential to the focused vein of acidity coursing through the center of this outstanding Hungarian white. 13.0% ABV | Sample — 5 years ago
I had the good fortune to have spent time with István Szepsy Jr. while in Tokaji's Mád village, from which this wine takes its name. This is a late harvest Furmint-Hárslevelű endowed with pungent botrytisized aromas of dried mango, yellow peach, apricot, orange blossom and nougatine, it's profile on the nose mirrors that of that palate. What is perhaps defining about these wines is, aside from the stunning value of price for quality, is the cascading minerality that carves a canyon through lush layers of fruit and spice. 11.0% ABV | Sample — 6 years ago
