Description

Demeter Zoltan Tokaj Dry Furmint-Harslevelu 2019

Grape Varietals & Region: Made from 90% Furmint and 10% Harslevelu, this blend comes from the volcanic soil vineyards of Mad & Ratka in Tokaj, Hungary

Taste Profile: The nose is gently aromatic with subtle lees notes with hints of apricot, honeysuckle, and Jasmin. The palate is vibrant, vital, and mineral.

Lush & Tropical Whites

Succulent stonefruit with a citrus backbone characterises these wines. Typically, they have notes of tropical fruit, and come from warmer climates. A touch of oak during the winemaking process also helps to give some softness to the wine.

Expect notes of peach, apricot, pineapples, melon & a buttery texture
