2009
Sku: 33007092
The first Tokaji Aszu wine was created in the 1600s and Tokaji became the first European region to have its vineyards classified, 1st Growth, 2nd Growth, 3rd Growth, a system still used in Hungary today. World Wars and Communism halted quality winemaking. In 1989, inspired by wine author, Hugh Johnson, RTWC’s founders started the winery in an effort to preserve what they considered a dying art. Red Label is a blend of selected grapes from several of Royal Tokaji’s first and second growth vineyards with only eight vintages produced since its premier release in 1990.

| 90 Points ~ Wine & Spirits Magazine "A fresh take of Tokaji, this is vivid with sweet tangerine flavors and furmints electric acidity. Creamy and sweet yet light in feel, it's balanced for fresh fruit or light desserts, like figs split open and stuffed with goat cheese. It's expecially impressive for a vintage makred by heavy October rains." |
