Wine notes:

Our '08 estate Demi-Sec is a wine brimming with elegance that beckons to the adventurous wine drinker. A radiant lemon hue of yellow in the glass and fragrant white flowers and fresh citrus on the nose set the mood for a thrilling off-dry white wine. The wine feels dry on the palate at both its entry and finish with plenty of character in between. A round and creamy texture combined with a smoky structure emitting the rich mineral characteristics of our Becsek field create a playful harmony throughout the drink. Aromas of buttered peaches, pear and apple dance around the understated suppleness in this wine. Drink this wine as an aperitif or pair with dishes in light fruit, nut and cream sauces.
