TOKAJICUM Tokaji Essencia 2017

£99.00

Tokaji Essencia is the ultimate sweet wine in the world. A special vintage, this complex golden nectar offers a layered experience of the volcanic terroir. This rare sweet wine speciality is made from the free-run juice of botrytised berries.

An intense and concentrated flavour with an explosion of luscious tropical fruit and beguiling honeyed notes. It has a creamy, mouth-filling character, while the racy acidity keeps this a perfectly balanced, finely poised vintage. Eszencia is renowned as the best portrayer of terroir, and there is a rich minerality to every sip, indicative of the volcanic soil, while the finish will stay with you for well over a minute. The wine is still very young and will continue to develop as long as you can resist drinking it.


Food Pairing

Serve this unique wine with a deep, salty blue cheese, luxurious goose liver or cured mangalitza ham and create a very special moment of gourmet indulgence. It also goes perfectly with cakes and chocolate muffins.
