Disznoko Aszu 6 Puttonyos, Tokaj, Hungary 2016 500ml
A vintage giving powerful wines with fresh acidity. The vegetative season was wet, but the grapes ripened nicely thanks to sufficiently high temperatures. The rain at the end of the summer enabled an early onset of intensive botrytis. 2016 is an excellent sweet wine vintage in Tokaj, resulting wines with fresh, balanced acidity and good aromatic complexity.
Bright golden robe. Fresh apricot, stone fruits, green spices, santal tree and honey on the nose. The palate is intense and rich, with great acidity, structure and verticality. The finish is long and spicy, does not show very sweet.
Ready to drink but with an important ageing potential (for 30 years or more). To enjoy the finest nuances, Disznókő Tokaji Aszú 6 puttonyos is best served cool (54°C). After opening, it retains its freshness for at least a week in the fridge.
