Inviting aromatics. Notes of dandelion, chamomile tea, walnuts, red apple, and amontillado sherry. Great depth and intrigue. Oxidation was just where it needed to be and a nerving minerality is maintained. A great look into dry Tokaj and the white wine capabilities of Hungry. Another bottle in need of more than just 750mL. Also a nice side-step from my recent interest in Chenin Blanc.

A bit oxidative and nutty, a bit floral. Incredibly flexible with food.

Lemon drop candy with less sugar. Lemon pulp, pear skin, yellow florals, soft understated fine minerals.

Aug 13th, 2016Steely, musty, leaves of old book nose. Way spready on first sip, acid bleeding over paper towels. Raw stone fruit & lots of lemon peel. A furmint ferment from Hungary, pares well with something fatty.
