Description

Harslevelu, which translates to 'lime leaf' in the native tongue, is a grape that - like Furmint - is used to produce the famous and timeless dessert wines of the historic Tokaj region. Here, in its dry form, the grape showcases its aromatic, blossomy character on top of a peachy palate that is tempered by the trademark, zingy acidity that this grape and region has become known for. A superb wine that will pair beautifully with an array of dishes ranging from salads to cheeses (especially blue!) and white meats.

Chateau Pajzos

The story of Pajzos Tokaj began with Jean-Michel Arcaute, a winemaker from Bordeaux. In 1991, the Château Clinet winery in Bordeaux, owned by Arcaute's wife, was bought by the French insurance company GAN. However, the head of the winery remained Arcaute, who was considered the "mad genius" of the wine world at the time. Thanks to him, Tokaj became the main investment target for the GAN insurance company and the CFGVT investor group.
