Notes - The Royal Tokaji Wine Company pioneered the renaissance of Tokaji after the fall of Communism in 1989. A group of foreign investors, including Hugh Johnson and Peter Vinding-Diers, formed the company in cooperation with 63 growers in Mád, the Hungarian village which friends jested was named in anticipation of their joint venture. This Gold Medal winning late harvest wine is named after Royal Tokaji's Winemaker of the Year 2006, Karoly Ats, whose family have produced wines in the Tokaji wine region for generations. The grape varieties are 70% Furmint, 15% Harslevelu and 15%Yellow Muscat and the wine is produced for early drinking. The alcohol strength is always low, around 10%. The wine has the colour of sun and hay. Ats Cuvee's characteristics are fresh tropical fruits, with a tiny hint of quince, which gives a lingering citrus finish. Ideal as an aperitif or with asian and chinese foods. Ats Cuvee has, in a very short time, become an icon of achievement in Hungary.
