As pure articulate and graceful, as great clarity of
thought.

Eloquence sweet Szamorodni is the most expressive Holdvölgy creation and also the most natural wine of Tokaj-Hegyalja. A true sweet speaker from Tokaj who clearly and succinctly explains everything about the wine-making traditions, the dedicated work behind the wine, the vintage, the vineyards and the grape varieties. We embrace it as it evolves. It doesn’t strive to be anything more than what it is, yet it consistently captivates us with its elegance and charm.

“True eloquence consists in saying all that should be said, and that only.” – François de La Rochefoucauld

A golden-yellow sweet Szamorodni. The nose is dominated by dried fruits, particularly fig and apricot. On the palate, it is rich and full-bodied: notes reminiscent of plum cake are accompanied by a honeyed creaminess, freshened by a hint of lemongrass.

The 2014 vintage began with a mild winter and early budburst. Spring brought significant pressure from pests and pathogens, followed by rapid flowering and a difficult, rainy summer. Through constant adaptation, patience, and the most precise care possible, we successfully protected our vineyards to ensure high-quality fruit. From late September onwards, we were able to continuously harvest our first, second, and third-selection aszú berries. This meticulous, selective harvest was concluded on October 31st.
