The 1993 Tokaji Aszu 5-Puttonyos is a blend of 75% Furmint and 25% Harslevelu that was aged in 220-liter barrels for 24 months. It has a lifted nose of mandarin and marmalade – not complex, but nicely focused and still vibrant after 20 years. The palate is taut and crisp on the entry, with bitter orange, Seville orange marmalade and apricot preserve. The acidity is crisp (9.6 grams per liter) and cuts through the 137 grams per liter residual sugar with ease, lending it a real citric bite on the finish. Drink now-2030+
This honeyed, late-harvest white offers a lush, pillowy texture and rich flavors of dried apricots, toffee and vanilla. It's very sweet, yet quite fresh and still lively. Delicious now
