From an excellent vintage in Tokaj comes Péter’s Szamorodni – sweet, silky-smooth, and replete with flavours like ripe, juicy peaches, dried apricot and honeyed citrus – with just a smidge of vanilla and toasty oak notes from long ageing in barrel. Layered and complex, this Szamorodni is both luscious and fresh – and seriously over delivers for the price.

Vineyard and Winemaking
The grapes for this sweet Szamorodni were harvested between September 20 and October 10, depending on the variety and the ripeness, with just the right quantity of botrytized berries. The juice was then fermented in stainless steel, filtered, and aged a minimum of eight months in a mix of new, second, and third-use barrels, whose wood comes from Tokaj’s Zempléni Hills.
