Oremus Tokaji Aszu 5 Puttonyos White
The grapes are macerated for two days until they swell, before being gently pressed. Fermentation takes place in new Hungarian oak barrels. It is a slow process that can take up to two months and the aging process completes in 136 and 200 litre barrels for two to three years, before being bottled for another year.
ASZÚ 5 Puttonyos 2014 is a bright golden color and has the characteristic aromas of ripe apricot, honey, and citric nuances of grapefruit.
It is complex and rich with a refreshing finish, typical of a classic sweet Tokaji wine, without forgetting the acidity perfectly balancing the sweetness.
This wine is suitable for drinking now, but it can be aged for up to 40 years if stored in the ideal conditions.
