Royal Tokaji, Szt. Tamás Dry Furmint, Tokaji, Tokaj, 2017

92
Tasted by: Sylvia Wu
Drinking Window: 2020 - 2023
Southwestern-facing slopes and red clay soil of the Szt. Tamas vineyard gave this dry furmint an earthy nose of green apples, apricot, ripe peaches and hits of sourdough. Complex and concentrated on the palate, as elegant minerality mingles harmoniously with bitter lemon peel and ripe, honeyed peaches and apricot, dusted with white pepper spiciness. 7.2g/l acidity provides the thrust and structure, followed by honey suckle finish, salivating and long.
