Pale lemon in colour. Elegant botrytis, orange peel, apricot, peach, and elderflower on the nose, whilst layers of honey, vanilla, apricot, pear and mango on the palate. Lovely full body, with a long finish. Tokaji Szamorodni is a perfect wine for the Christmas season, or any time of the year for a sip of sweetness after dinner.
