What it pairs with

  • Chicken liver spread on dark rye
    The Szamorodni's sweetness and slight oxidative character match the liver's richness.
  • Apple and hazelnut torte
    Hazelnut and baked apple notes in both the wine and cake form a natural pairing.
  • Aged manchego
    Nutty, salty hard cheese and the wine's hazelnut oxidative notes form a complementary match.

History

Szamorodni édes is an ancient Tokaj style and Oremus's most traditional sweet wine, produced from whole-cluster harvesting of botrytised grapes alongside healthy bunches. The word Szamorodni derives from the Polish for 'as it was born' and describes the unsorted harvest approach.
