Vega Sicilia Oremus Tokaji Aszu 6 Puttonyos 2014 50cl
The Tokaj legend has grown and grown in its four-hundred years of history, but it was not until 1630, when the greatness of the Oremus vineyard was first spoken of. Today, it is the one with greatest universal acclaim. The Tokaj region lies within the range of mountains in Northeast Hungary. Oremus winery is located at the geographical heart of this region.
The production of Aszú wine (teardrop wine) is a meticulous process only possible in exceptional vintages and under unique conditions which enable the development of “Botrytis cinerea” or noble rot. 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 12-24 hours 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 ageing process is completed in 136 and 200-litre barrels for two to three years and bottled for an additional 4 to 5 years. Aszú 6 Puttonyos is a luxurious wine where its fine acidity supports its extraordinary mellowness. This wine from the 2014 vintage is very complex on the nose with notes of forest fruits honey. In the mouth, the sharp acidity balances the luxurious sweetness.
