Oremus Mandolás Tokaji Dry, 2020

The Legend of Mandolás Continues

This combines Furmint’s bold acidity with flavours of juicy dessert apples and white flowers. The texture is almost waxy, with a pleasing saline note on the lengthy finish.

BEHIND THE WINE

In 1993, the Álvarez family, of Vega-Sicilia fame, established Bodegas Tokaj Oremus. The vineyards are spread over more than a dozen different hillside sites, of which ten were classified ‘primæ classis’ in 1803. Here the group is able to produce exceptional white wines, both dry Furmints and sweet Aszú styles, from 3 puttonyos up to the mythical Eszencia. All present the region’s unique combination of succulence and tang, and together showcase the amazing versatility of Furmint grown in this historic location.
