Shane’s Notes

It had a beautiful golden color. The powerful aroma exuded honey, cinnamon and apple. The rich palate showed a sugary, appley, honey flavor. The texture was unctious and the finish was long. This young Tokaji has very firm acidity and would probably benefit from long term cellaring, but it is also very enjoyable right now. Tokaji is one of the best dessert wines in the world and while the expensive ones are much more complex, this is a great Tokaji for the price.
