Béres Tokaji Aszú 5 Puttonyos, 2014

Brilliant, amber-coloured wine speciality with a distinctively intense, unique and rich aroma. The flavours and aromas strongly feature raisins, dried figs and dates. The mouthfeel is lively, citrusy and the high sugar content is extremely well-balanced by the acids. Full-bodied, complex, layered dessert wine with an endless finish.

  • Brief description of viticulture, fermentation, vinification and maturation: Individually handpicked and selected Hárslevelű and Furmint aszú grapes were soaked in clean, fermenting Furmint base wine. The soaking lasted for 24 hours. The aim of soaking is to enrich the material to be pressed with the alcohol and carbon dioxide produced during the onset of fermentation. This Aszú was aged for 30 months in Szerednye-type, Zemplén oak barrels, then bottled.
