RATINGS

96Robert M. Parker Jr.

...a no-holds-barred, slam-dunk, brilliant wine. The delineation is astonishing on the nose, unfurling with entrancing scents of orange blossom, freshly sliced apricots, almond and quince – all beautifully focused. The palate has pitch-perfect acidity, great depth and power, and yet it is elegant from its start to its finish, which has that ever so slightly bitter lemon tang that offsets the sweetness.

19Jancis Robinson

Amazingly tense and exciting. Dense. Sings and reverberates. Real finesse.

93Stephen Tanzer

Smells lighter and livelier...offering fruitier aromas of peach and apricot...lively acidity framing and lifting the flavors of orange zest, apricot and spices...silky and long.

PRODUCER

Royal Tokaji

Royal Tokaji was founded in Hungary in 1990 following the opening of Eastern Europe to Western business. Hugh Johnson, the English wine writer, is the founding shareholder and the idea behind the company was to revive the tradition of the sweet white wines that were once one of the glories of Eastern European winemaking. Today the company’s portfolio includes dry white wine, though Royal Tokaji is known primarily for its sweet wines.
