The wine region of Tokaj
Cradle of the legendary Tokaji Aszú, "king of wines" per Louis XIV. Noble sweet wines based on Furmint (lively acidity prone to botrytis) and floral Hárslevelű ("linden leaf"): amber robe, signature aromas of honey, candied apricot, quince, orange peel, saffron, sustained sugar balanced by tense acidity. Measured in "puttonyos" (3 to 6) with Aszú Eszencia at the top. Also dry Furmint on the rise, straight and mineral.
The word of the wine: Reassembly
During the vinification process, a "cap" is formed at the top of the vats with the solid parts (skin, pulp, pips, etc.), which contain tannins and colouring elements. Pumping over consists of emptying the vat from the bottom and pouring the juice back to the top, in order to mix the cap and the juice and to favour the exchange and the extraction. This old technique allows a better exchange between the solid parts and the liquid.
