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: Faded
Said of a wine that has lost its brilliance and depth. It can also be used to describe the nose of an old wine that has lost its aromatic freshness.
