Royal Tokaji Wine Company Blue Label 5 Puttonyos 1999 – 25cl

Bin No. TOKAJIBLUE

Price: £9.50

One vine yields approximately one glass of wine!
Aszu grapes are individually picked from bunches into 20 litre wooden tubs called puttony. The Aszu grapes are crushed, releasing their intensely sweet juice. The non-Aszu grapes added per barrel of base wine gives the final puttony level of the wine, as printed on the label.
Fermentation takes place in used 140 litre Gonci barrels made from Hungarian oak, in cellars extending for over 2kms where natural yeasts abound, and can take one or two years.
Aszu wines must legally be matured for three years. Royal Tokaji wines are usually aged for longer, however still retaining their distinctive uplifting acidity. A rich, sweet and concentrated wine made, from 100% Furmint, in a clean, modern style but showing impressive complexity. Notes of apricots, honey and oranges can be found on the nose and palate, which offers a luscious, sensual, mouth filling texture and lingering finish. Fantastic on its own as a dessert wine or alternatively why not try it with crème brulee styled desserts.
