$3(FREE S/H) Hand-harvested at their prime in late November, a portion that was slated for Tokaj was saved for this lighter, enjoyable late harvest wine that shows peach marmalade, spiced lemon zest and rich caramel flavors. This is a perfect 'finale' to a great meal, and easy to pair with delicious desserts. Set amongst the majestic Carpathian Mountains, small plateaus of volcanic rock lay the foundation for Furmint grapes to grow, which are responsible for the world-renowned Tokaj. Furmint grapes begin their maturation with thick skins, but as they ripen the skins become thinner and transparent. This allows the sun to penetrate the grape and evaporate much of the water inside, producing a higher proportion of sugar, sealing the luscious and complex flavors inside.
