A wonderful, bright traditional method sparkling wine. It has an enticing nose, with notes of ripe citrus, honey and juicy pineapple. There is just the right balance between fruit and some smokey, biscuity flavours from the in-bottle fermentation.

Press Review
" NV sparkling is a rarity in Tokaj. Crafted by Champagne maestro Régis Camus based on the 2019 vintage, Sauska's NV Sparkling Brut is a blend of the local duo, Furmint and Hárslevelu, plus a dash of Chardonnay. Savoury toast opens up to red apple and honey-roasted nuts on the nose, thanks to at least 18 months of lees ageing. A buttered palate of brioche and wheat biscuit seasoned with honey and apple tart, melting in the creamy mousse. The notable residual sugar (8g/l) offsets the mineral acidity at 6.5g/l. Pleasing honeydew melon on the finish. "
Winemaking
Made under the careful eye of master Champagne maker Régis Camus. Made with a blend of Hungarian varieties Furmint and Hárslevelű with a good dose of Chardonnay. 20% of the first fermentation occured in oak barrels. Secondary fermentation in the bottles in the cold cellars from mid-March until the end of August. Aged for more than 18 months on the lees in the bottle to add depth and complexity.
