Béres Tokaj, Lõcse Furmint 2011, Tokaj, Hungary

Tasting Note: A furmint from Hungary with body, caramel and honey flavors.

Pale-intensity gold in color, this wine has a pronounced-intensity, aromatic nose of honey, baked apple, caramel, butterscotch and dried fruit.

On the palate the dry, medium-plus-bodied furmint is creamy in texture with medium-plus acidity and flavors suggested on the nose.

Bottle Note: Quality dry white wine with protected designation of origin. Fermented and aged in oak barrels, this single-vineyard wine is from the historic Lõcse vineyard. Full-bodied, elegant furmint with almond notes, robust acids and minerality. Excellent with game and red meats. Our estate’s top dry wine.
