Sauska Late Harvest Cuvée 2023

A late harvest wine showing the new side of Tokaj. Mostly Furmint with a little Yellow Muscat, harvested from the Medve vineyard, one of Tokaj’s warmest areas. Like other natural sweet Tokaji wines, the late harvest allows excess sugar to develop in the grape, and a touch of noble rot lends complexity and depth to the wine. Fermented and aged in steel tanks for a short period of time, this wine is fresher than most sweet wines while still displaying the complex notes that make Tokaji wines unique.

About the Sauska Tokaj winery

The Sauska winery in Tokaj and its twin winery in Villány are known for creating modern, cutting-edge wines and constantly experimenting with new styles. Founded by Krisztián Sauska, a Hungarian expatriate from California, this winery has been turning out some exceptionally clean and bright white wines lately. Apart from traditional grape varieties such as Furmint, Hárslevelű and Yellow Muscat, they also grow international varieties such as Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc and blend them, creating new styles and flavors in a very traditional wine region.
