Szent Tamás
86 Takaji Száraz Furmint
Tokaj, Eszak-Magyarorszag, Hungary
Tasted while visiting the producer, the Szent Tamas Tokaji 86 470 Palack Furmint 2012 is as with all wines from this region are mineral-driven and nuanced The '86' is a reference to the parcel the Furmint grapes were harvest from, 2286. Truly, the Crus of this region are as complex as one might find in Burgundy. This bottling, one of only 470 magnums shows little fruit, scant notes of pear skin and banana chips converge with a pure expression of sun, soil, pomace, and clay, bolstered by taut acidy and an almost amaranthine finish. 14.0% ABV 1.8 RS | Sample
