Pajzos Tokaj

Pajzos Tokaj Aszu 5 Puttonyos 2017 0,5l

Tokaj Aszú 5 Puttonyos from Pajzos is a classic noble sweet wine from the historic Tokaj region, mainly based on Furmint and Hárslevelű. The nose is intense and complex, showing dried apricots, candied citrus, honey, caramel and hints of nuts and black tea. On the palate the wine is rich and concentrated, with a creamy texture and impressive depth of flavour. Lush sweetness is perfectly balanced by lively acidity, giving freshness and drive. Layers of dried fruit, spice, subtle oak and herbal notes linger on the palate. The very long, multi-faceted finish makes this Tokaj a wonderful match for nutty or caramel-based desserts, blue cheeses or slow contemplative sipping on its own.

Thirty-two months in small Hungarian oak casks concentrate the noble-sweet fruit and give the Tokaji depth and complexity.
