Winemaking: We selected the aszú berries of the Tarcal vineyards in several passages between 20th September and the end of November and stored them in vats. The Eszencia pressed out under the weight of the aszú berries was kept in glass demi-johns for a long, light fermentation after which it was bottled.
Wine tasting: “Very hot and dry Tokaji vintages – like 2012 – behave a little strangely, unusually. The very few aszú berries formed this year were of outstanding quality, but thanks to the great aridity the grapes bring expressly healthy and complex flavours. And this becomes the charm built on noble rot, firm and thick, imbued with fruit. The spicy flavours of fragrant varieties close the sip.” (Gabriella Mészáros)
