Egri Leányka Superior 2018 Late Harvest Késői and Cuban dark chocolate 75%

Autumnal colours and aromas of sunny hillsides, reminiscent of the shrivelled grape berries of vines. Each golden drop as it rolls down the glass carries the sweet flavours of overripe grapes. The nose is also reminiscent of autumn. Quietly opening flowers, roses and chrysanthemums, freshly peeled, fragrant apples and quince tempt you to taste. The palate is dominated by spicy apple compote and baked apple aromas, followed by a touch of acacia honey, lingering on the sweetness of the wine.

The silky texture of the Cuban dark chocolate, with its brilliantly glossy texture can enhance this taste experience thanks to its physalis and cinnamon blossom content. The deep cocoa and discreetly smoky flavours of the chocolate give the wine a creamy texture. At the same time, the pleasant acidity of the wine and the physalis lightens the character of the chocolate. Tasted together, the spiciness is even more pronounced in both. The sensation of a perfect, soul-warming mulled wine is evoked, this time made memorable by the caressing, lovely aromas of cinnamon blossom.
