Tokaj (Wine)
Tokaj is a renowned wine region located in northeastern Hungary, famous for its sweet white wines made primarily from the Furmint grape. The unique climate and volcanic soil of the area contribute to the production of high-quality wines, particularly the iconic Tokaji Aszú, which is made from grapes affected by noble rot, enhancing their sweetness and complexity.
The Tokaj region has a long history of winemaking, dating back to the 16th century. It was one of the first wine regions to receive a classification system, and its wines have been celebrated by royalty and connoisseurs alike. Today, Tokaj continues to be a symbol of quality and tradition in the world of wine.
