Sauska Extra Dry
Tokaj
Sunshine gold with consistent bubbles. It opens with the intense aromas of the summer Tokaj vineyards, honey, quince, apricots, and ripe grapes, followed by lime, baked apple, honey, and vanilla on the palate. Vibrant, fresh, and energetic, its delicate sweetness is wonderfully balanced by salty volcanic minerality. Attractive and confident on its own, this sparkling wine performs beautifully with food, especially with seafood up to the sweets.
