Royal Tokaji Blue Label '5 Puttonyos Aszu' 2018

Royal Tokaji Blue Label '5 Puttonyos Aszu' 2018

  • TASTING NOTE: "The 2018 Tokaji Blue Label 5-Puttonyos is blessed with an effervescent bouquet: dried honey, white flowers, apricots and touches of quince. Wonderful delineation. The palate is viscous on the entry with sufficient countervailing acidity to keep this Tokaji on its toes. That apricot element is quite pronounced. CrĂšme brĂ»lĂ©e and almond hints appear towards the persistent finish. Drink this now and over the next 12 to 15 years." 91 Points - Neal Martin, Vinous
  • ABOUT THE WINE: Fine quality AszĂș berries with good flavour, balance and perfect botrytis were macerated in fermenting must for two days. After pressing and finishing fermentation, the wines were filled into 300 and 500 litre Hungarian oak casks and left to age in deep, underground cellars for over two years. 
  • ABOUT THE PRODUCER:  The Royal Tokaji Winery, founded in 1990, has become one of the most admired wineries in Tokaj. At the outset, Royal Tokaji decided to concentrate on producing single vineyard wines, made from the First Growth vineyards of MĂ©zes MĂĄly, NyulĂĄszĂł, Szt. TamĂĄs and Betsek. Acknowledged as one of the region's top winemakers, they combine traditional techniques with modern technology to create the award-winning Royal Tokaji range of wines. Royal Tokaji is the acknowledged leader of the renaissance of this legendary Hungarian wine, which, in the words of the wine author and company co-founder Hugh Johnson, is "a wine that would make angels sing out loud in praise". Their goal is to revive and bring back to international acclaim the wines of one of history's most renowned wine regions. Royal Tokaji
