Description
Szamorodni is a historical wine category of Tokaj just as 3 Puttonyos Aszú. They have basically the same richness and style in nose and taste too. At the production of Sweet Szamorodni we do not select the aszú berries out from the bunch of grapes but we macerate and press it as it was given by the nature. Deriving from this relatively moderate sweetness and excellent balance this is the kind of aszú-style wine at Hétszőlő that creates an outstanding and rich harmony with fine foods and not necessarily only with desserts. This wine comes from the Tokaj-Hétszőlő Imperial Estate which derives from the Hétszőlő Single Vineyard from 1502 when 7 parcels of land based on loess soil were assembled.
Tastenotes:
This wine is all about fruit, freshness, and excellent balance. On the nose, it shows generous aromas of tropical fruits and apricot, with subtle notes of raisin. On the palate, the wine reveals excellent acidity, which perfectly balances the residual sugar and gives it vibrancy and harmony.
Pairing:
It pairs beautifully with creamy and fruity desserts and, of course, matches very well with goose liver. It is also worth trying with oriental cuisine or dishes featuring mild curry spices, where its sweetness and acidity complement the flavors nicely.
