Tokaji Oremus Aszú 3 Puttonyos 2016 is a vibrant and velvety wine, crafted using a traditional technique that involves the maceration of noble berries. Its aging in Hungarian oak barrels gives it a unique and sophisticated character.
Tokaji Oremus Aszú 3 Puttonyos 2016 stands out for its vibrant and velvety texture. It comes from the Tokaj region, famous worldwide with centuries of viticulture history. The making of this wine relies on a careful tradition known as "late harvest wine", which can only be done under very specific conditions. This process involves the development of the fungus "Botrytis cinerea", which is essential for extracting sweetness from the grapes. For its production, 3 baskets of 25 noble Aszú berries are included, meaning "3 puttonyos." These berries are macerated until they increase in size and are pressed. Fermentation occurs in new Hungarian oak barrels lasting about four weeks. The wine then rests in 136 and 200-liter barrels for at least 2 years before bottling. The 2016 vintage was exceptional, with a long, cold winter followed by a dry spring that allowed for early budding of the vines. Thus, the setting was perfect and maturation rapid, resulting in a wine with balanced aroma and acidity. Undoubtedly, this Aszú 3 Puttonyos is the ideal choice for those looking for a fresh and elegant wine.
