Disznókó Late Harvest Tokaji Furmint 2017

Description

This wine refutes the generally held notion that late-harvest Tokaji is never as profound as an aszú variation. 'It's transporting,' said one of our panelists, pulling out of a reverie involving wildflower fields and honeybees buzzing while the sun sets in a blaze of gold... It might not evoke the same images for everyone, but there's undeniable pleasure in its smoky, spicy golden-fruit flavors and velvety, mouth-filling texture, and in how the citrusy acidity manages to keep the wine simultaneously buoyant. The flavors last in a warm afterglow of red-blushed flavor and earth, furmint's fiery side rendered with beauty. Score - 94. (wineandspiritsmagazine.com, Dec. 2019)
