Furmint, Hárslevelű, Sárgamuskotály. TA 8.5 g/l, RS 228 g/l. Lots of syrupy sweetness. Just a little heavier, less finesse than others in this line-up. A bit simpler. Although we are talking about Aszú, so everything is relative. It's still a complex wine. (TC)

Score 96/100 · James Suckling, Jan 2021
This has a fantastic nose of marmalade, dried apricot, crystallized ginger, candied chestnut and honey. Dried pineapple and kumquat, too. It’s rich and luscious, balanced by bright acidity and concentrated flavors of dried fruit, spice and earthy hints. Intense. The finish goes on and on! Drink or hold.
