NYULÁSZÓ – 1ST GROWTH TOKAJI ASZÚ 6 PUTTONYOS 1993

The skill and traditions of producing Aszú wines have changed little since the 17th Century. Hand picked Aszú berries are macerated with top quality base wines. The resultant Aszú wines mature at different sweetness levels, generally 4, 5 or 6 puttonyos. Careful pruning in the 1st and 2nd Growth vineyards amongst their 80 hectares, hand picking and maturation for a minimum of 3 years in Gönci casks in 13th Century cellars, ensure these rich, refreshing wines are produced to the highest quality.
