THE FIRST DECADE ASZÚ 5 PUTTONYOS 1993

A historic vintage for Tokaj. This was Royal Tokaji’s fourth vintage and the first great vintage after the fall of communism. After a long and dry summer the region had rain at exactly the right time to create ideal condition for a large and high quality vintage. The botrytised berries, with creamy structure and rich aromas, were perfect to vinify very special Tokaj wines, characterised by fantastic structure, perfect balance, pure botrytis aromas and a very long finish.

These outstanding Aszú berries with good structure 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 in our extensive, deep, underground cellars to mature for over two years. The final blends were carefully crafted in the spring of 2019.
Enjoy now or cellar for future enjoyment as the wine matures. Sip as an aperitif, serve with fruit based desserts or hard cheeses or enjoy this mouth-watering wine on its own instead of a dessert.
Serve cool.
