Disznókő Tokaji Aszú 6 Puttonyos 2017

Disznókő's 2017 Tokaji Aszú is produced from vineyards around Mezőzombor in Tokaj, where Disznókő Tokaj works predominantly with Furmint on volcanic soils. The 2017 season was warm and steady, with a long autumn that allowed for the gradual development of botrytis and multiple selective harvests of Aszú berries.

The wine is made by macerating the botrytised berries into a base wine, followed by fermentation and extended ageing in oak. At 6 puttonyos, it represents a high concentration of Aszú material.

The 2017 shows apricot, quince and orange peel, with honey, saffron and a light mineral edge.
