Tokaj-Hegyalja

Dry wines: It is often ignored that the Tokaj wine region also produces excellent dry wines. These wines once referred to as ordinarium are now named after their respective grape varieties: Tokaji Furmint, Tokaji Hárslevelű, Tokaji Sárgamuskotály Muscat.

Late harvest: These wines, similarly to Szamorodni, are made from partly botrytised bunches and have more or less residual sugar.

Szamorodni: This word of Polish origin means: as it grew. This wine is made from partly botrytised bunches without selection of the botrytised aszú berries. Both its dry and sweet versions are excellent aperitifs.

Aszú: These are the wines that made Tokaj world famous. The proportion of the base wine or must used for maceration and of the aszú grapes harvested one by one determines the concentration of the wine 3 to 6 Puttonyos and Aszú-Eszencia.

Eszencia: This absolute rarity gained from the free-run juice of the aszú grapes is a unique nectar with a honey-like concentration.
