Slight oxidation adds nutty accents and an iodine note to this sinewy dessert white. There's not a lot of flesh, yet this is intense and complex, with apricot, honey, smoke, spice and mineral flavors that won't quit.

PRODUCER

Royal Tokaji

Royal Tokaji was founded in Hungary in 1990 following the opening of Eastern Europe to Western business. Hugh Johnson, the English wine writer, is the founding shareholder and the idea behind the company was to revive the tradition of the sweet white wines that were once one of the glories of Eastern European winemaking. Today the company’s portfolio includes dry white wine, though Royal Tokaji is known primarily for its sweet wines.
