Tokaj Aszu
Tokaj is a noble white wine from the historic Tokaj-Hegyalja wine region in northeastern Hungary. This wine is renowned for its unique production method involving noble rot, also known as botrytis cinerea. This noble rot develops on the grapes during the humid autumn conditions, leading to a natural concentration of sugars and aromas in the berries.

Food and Wine Pairing
This Tokaj would be ideally paired with a creamy, blue-veined cheese such as Roquefort or Gorgonzola. The rich, sweet aromas of the wine perfectly complement the intense, salty flavor of the blue cheese, creating a delightful harmony on the palate. The subtle acidity of the Tokaj balances the richness of the cheese, offering a divine combination of flavors and textures.
