It's evolved to glowing deep amber and shows great complexity of dried fig, dates, coffee, raisins and a touch of bitter orange marmalade. To taste it's also incredibly complex, rich and raisiny like liquid Christmas pudding with orange zest and caramel. Silky but still fresh and vibrant, showing Tokaji's incredible ageability. Excellent with pigeon and persimmon.
