This past week was a busy one at work and at play, going through, among others, various anti-double taxation treaties and contracts (aside from meetings), weekday dinners for my brother-in-law and niece who are in town from Indiana (my sis didn't come along as she is busy tending to her recently opened allergy clinic there).

2008 Királyudvar Tokaji Demi Sec - Very pure, well-focused, well-defined flavors of cold stoney, slightly off-dry/lightly honeyed pear, peach, with whispers of flowers and banana. Super clean, excellent freshness, crisp acidity and over-all balance. Excellent wine crafting here; so refreshing and food friendly.

Even the kids liked this and the bottle was quickly emptied. Wonderful with the terrine of foie gras and pretty good with the moules and escargots. This is readily available at Premium Wine Exchange for a mere P1700/bottle. You simply must.
