The historic Tokaj wine district has long been known for its sweet Tokaj Aszú, a wine of outstanding quality and unique style. What makes this wine exceptional is that its birth is far from a foregone conclusion. It requires an ideal alternation of rainy and sunny days in autumn for the magical transformation of the berries by botrytis to take place and picking the aszú berries is probably the most labour-intensive harvesting method in the wine world. The three Aszús presented at the pop-up tasting will be preceded by three dry Furmints, which tell the story of the region’s modern history, including its ability to meet modern consumer demands in the premium white wine segment and the diversity and character of Tokaj’s vineyards.
The pop-up tasting will take place during the Daejeon International Wine EXPO Wine Trade Show.
