2019 · Tokaji Sweet Szamorodni

Péter Pince is a family-owned and operated winery on the border of Tokaj and Tarcal in Hungary’s Tokaj-Hegyalja region. Under Péter Ákos, it cultivates native varieties including Furmint, Hárslevelű, Sárgamuskotály, Kövérszőlő, Zéta and Kabar, producing wines from dry to sweet. The estate emphasises careful vineyard work, intimate knowledge of its terroir and hand-selection of fruit. Its Aszú is made from botrytized Furmint macerated on the must, then pressed, fermented in stainless steel and aged for two years in a combination of new, second-use and third-use Zempléni oak barrels.
