Terroir Selection 5 Puttonyos Aszú 2019

Terroir Selection 5 Puttonyos Aszú 2019

Elegant, modern aszú with bright golden colour. Great complexity on the nose: the botrytised notes of hand-picked and selected aszú berries come along with peach, orange peel, caramel croquant, figs and exotic flowers. The palate is crystal clear, with fresh and dried fruit, orange, quince, pear and apricot notes. The finish reveals secondary aromas of barrel aging like white chocolate and vanilla, while the bright acidity keeps the wine round and persistent. Long, rich aszú with remarkable potential. An outstanding Tokaj wine that was aged in Zemplén oak barrels for years and then preserved in bottle in the exceptional tranquility of our 5.5 km long Szegi Cellar.
