Oremus Tokaji Aszu 6 Puttonyos White

For hundreds of years it has been made by adding 6 panniers (puttonyos) containing 25 kg of noble Aszú berries to a “Gönc” barrel (136 litres) of base must.

Aszú berries are macerated for two days until swollen, followed by a gentle press. Fermentation takes place in new Hungarian oak barrels; a slow process which can last up to two months.

Its aging process is completed in 136 and 200-litre barrels for two to three years and bottled for an additional year.

The color, which is a deep, old gold bordering on Tawny. On the nose, it is difficult to know where to start: toffee, butterscotch, rum and raisins, toffee apples, tarte tatin, orange peel, and lots of spices. The palate is super-sweet, and one might mistake it for liquid honey, but for the appetizing acidity that keeps it so crisp and refreshing. The ripe fruit finally gives way to a spicy finish, and the length just goes on and on.

Oremus Tokaji Aszu 6 Puttonyos White 2013	95 Wine Spectator A graceful dessert wine, as much about a minerally thread of briny oyster shell and smoke as it is about the pure fruit flavors of poached apricot, baked pineapple and orange gelée. Fine and creamy, almost gossamerlike on the palate, but a subtle chalkiness and the integrated acidity provide seamless structure. The finish features echoes of the ripe fruit and a rich hint of praline. Furmint, Hárslevelü, Zéta and Sárga Muskotály. Drink now through 2035. 1,959 cases made, 69 cases imported.

Savory hints of medicinal herbs, leather and smoke on the nose are a subtle underpinning for the palate’s flavors of baked yellow peach, candied pink grapefruit, salted almond and blood orange granita, while a chiseled spine of acidity creates a mouthwatering frame that bursts with the expressive profile. Instead of lush texture and richness, look for depth of flavor and concentration in a well-defined frame. This is aging gracefully. Furmint, Hárslevelü, Zéta and Sárga Muskotály.
