Tokaji PDO Aszú 5 Puttonyos 2016 Samuel Tinon

Samuel Tinon's Tokaj Aszú 5 Puttonyos was born in vineyards located in the renowned region of Tokaji, in Hungary.

It is mainly produced with Furmint and Hárslevelű grapes, harvested entirely by hand, berry by berry, once the bunches have been attacked by the noble rot Botrytis cinerea. The grapes are left to macerate in a dry wine for 30 days, after which the fermentation takes place in barrels for 2 years, in constant contact with oxygen, until bottling.

It has an intense golden yellow color, tending towards amber. The nose brings aromas of lemon and candied fruit, enriched by notes of tobacco, mint and pepper, honey and nougat. On the palate it is intense and full-bodied, pleasantly refreshing, with a very elegant apricot finish.

Ideal with blue cheeses, this sweet wine lends itself to accompany spicy and sauced dishes typical of Chinese or Indian cuisine.
