Tokaji PDO Aszù 5 Puttonyos Blue Label 2017 Royal Tokaji

Tokaji Aszù 5 Puttonyos Blue Label is obtained from a fabulous blend of Furmint, Hárslevelű and Muscat de Lunel grapes, grown in the famous Hungarian Nyulászó vineyard, characterized by a soil of red earth of volcanic origin that gives great elegance.

The grapes are carefully selected both according to the degree of ripeness and to the homogeneous presence of the noble mold Botrytis cinerea, then dried in special containers, called puttonyos. 5 puttonyos are added to the must produced with the same non-botrytized varieties in order to give sweetness and alcoholic warmth to the finished product. Everything is transferred to Hungarian oak barrels where aging takes place for at least 2 years.

It is characterized by a vivid golden yellow color. The nose vibrates hints of apricot in jam and orange peel, supported by pleasant touches of honey and spices. It has a delicate and elegant sip, of beautiful tension and freshness.

Recommended in combination with fruit desserts and blue cheeses. Try it served chilled as an aperitif.
