Description
The warm 2018 vintage has produced an elegant Tokaji, delicate in colour with fine aromas of lime flowers and apricot blossom. The palate is both fresh and sweet, with concentrated notes of lime marmalade. All is beautifully balanced on a long, harmonious finish with a glorious lick of intense refreshment that makes you long for another sip.
