As there is a perfect balance between sugar and acidity even in wines with high residual sugar (like 5 or 6 puttonyos aszú) due to the soil and climatic conditions as well as the traditional grape varieties of the region, it is a golden rule that Tokaj wines are not restricted to the role of dessert wines. Also, the high extract content and the minerality of the wines never let sweetness become overwhelming.
As they have a clean and long finish and they are never cloying, Tokaj wines are ideal as an aperitif.
Apart from the classic foie gras, it is worth trying different entrées based on meat, fish, or vegetables.
