The 2019 Tokaji Nyulászó 6-Puttonyos has a very nuanced bouquet with yellow plum, acacia honey, light hazelnut and walnut scents and touches of white linen in the background. A fine delineation. The palate is a little more viscous than the other cuvées, countered by a silver thread of acidity, very pure with a tangy marmalade finish. Excellent. Drink: 2026-2046
At first closed on the nose, but mouth filling flavours of candied pineapple and toasted baguette fill out the very compact and structured wine. Impeccably balanced thanks to the astonishing mineral freshness at the super-long, vibrant and salty finish. A touch of bitter orange that adds to the excitement! From a legendary vineyard site with volcanic soil.
An extremely charming and complex Aszú from the estate’s Nyulászó (‘a good place to catch hares’) parcels on volcanic bedrock and clay soils. Fermented and aged in Hungarian oak barrels (30% new), the 2019 boasts sour citrus, vanilla and sweet spices on the nose, with alluring creaminess revealing acacia honey and dried camomile. Boiled peach on the palate, seasoned with savoury spices, dried apricot, mango and more creamy vanilla. Loads of character, supported by exhilarating acidity (7.21g/L). More stem ginger and dried fruit unravel towards the finish, which seems to last for eternity. An absolute joy. Drink: 2026-2046
