Fresh citrus, apple, ripe peach and a hint of herbs on the nose. Lemon juice, apple peel and dried apricot on the palate with white pepper spices. Refreshing acidity provides a lift to the 13.5% alcohol. The finish is long and warming.

Refined yet unpretentious this has nutty intensity, mineral assertiveness and fruit juiciness in equal measure, showing the different faces and full potential of the Hungarian grape. Orange blossom, peach and kiwi are topped by fresh almonds and camomile. Lively, long finish.
