This Aszú 6 Puttonyos is a sweet blend of the Furmint, Zeta, and Hárslevelű grapes from the Tokaj region. The grapes are dehydrated by noble rot, or botrytis, which gives the wine a honeyed or medicinal flavor.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e The vineyards of Chateau Dereszla\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nIn the heart of Hungary's legendary Tokaj-Hegyalja wine region lies Château Dereszla, founded in the 18th century. It boasts one of the richest histories, dating back to the early 15th century. At that time, this winery belonged to the Hungarian Royal Family. Today, the winery owns sixty hectares of vineyards, most of which are situated on a narrow plateau 475 meters above sea level. The soil is of volcanic origin and contains high concentrations of loam and iron. This is precisely what gives the wines their distinctive flavor. In addition to the exquisite sweet wines, the estate also produces a number of excellent dry whites.\n\n\n \nChâteau Dereszla Aszú 6 Puttonyos is made with Aszú berries, which are affected by noble rot, a vine disease that causes the grapes to dry out, resulting in a naturally high concentration of sugars that maintain the fruit's acidity. These noble berries are harvested by hand, and the fine must is fermented under controlled temperatures. The resulting wine is aged for three years in Hungarian oak barrels.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e Enjoy the Tokaji Aszu 6 Puttonyos\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\n A puttonyo refers to the amount of bottled grapes used to make traditional Tokay wines. This measurement is derived from the capacity of a basket used to collect the bunches and is approximately 25 kg. Furthermore, the number of puttonyos used also refers to the amount of sugar in the wine, which can range from 3 puttonyos (less sweet) to 6 puttonyos (sweeter).\n\n\n \nThis Tokaji Aszu has a beautiful light gold color with aromas and flavors of honey, apricot, toasted wood, golden raisins, and Toblerone caramel. It boasts medium sweetness and acidity, excellent structure, and a long finish.","brand":"Fourcroy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42775748640847,"sku":"285","price":69.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/9358\/0879\/files\/chateau-dereszla-tokaji-aszu-3-puttonyos-hongarije_285.webp?v=1770041771"},{"product_id":"chateau-dereszla-tokaji-aszu-5-puttonyos","title":"Chateau Dereszla Tokaji Aszu 5 Puttonyos","description":"This sweet wine is made from the Furmint and Hárslevelű varieties.

The winery itself was founded in the 18th century and has produced wine under various owners over the centuries. In 2000, the d'Aulan family from the Champagne region recognized the rich heritage and invested heavily in modernizing their equipment and introducing the latest technologies. Today, the Dereszla winery owns 27 hectares of vineyards, divided among designated \"Grand Cru\" sites. The wide variety of soils in these vineyards is a key factor in the complexity of Dereszla wines.\n\n\n \nThe fertile climate is ideal for the development of the Botrytis cinerea bacterium. This bacterium attacks the grapes, perforating the skins, causing moisture to evaporate inside the grapes and increasing sugar concentration while decreasing acidity. The autumn morning mist promotes the growth of the fungus that causes the infamous \"noble rot.\"\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e The vinification of Tokaji Aszu 5 Puttonyos\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nTo make Château Dereszla Aszú 5 Puttonyos, the grapes are harvested by hand to carefully select those affected by Botrytis cinerea, with the final sugar content measured in puttonyos. A puttonyo is a kind of basket with a capacity of about 25 kg. It is used as a benchmark for calculating the amount of noble rot clusters, called Aszú, which are then poured into the base wine in 136-liter barrels. The minimum amount for this class of wines is 3 puttonyos and the maximum is 6. The more puttonyos it contains, the sweeter it will be.\n\n\n\n This wine has a very intense golden color. Exceptionally refined and an infinitely complex nose. Plenty of dried fruit such as apricots, plums, and orange, along with honey and walnuts. On the palate, the wine presents itself as pure, fresh, opulent, and unique. A rich wine with a long finish, certainly an enlightening experience.

This is more than wine; this is Château Dereszla Tokaji Aszu Essencia 2000—a legend in a glass.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e How to make Chateau Dereszla Tokaji Aszu Essencia\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nIn Hungary, the production of the renowned dessert wine Essencia is a process of patience, precision, and deep respect for tradition. Essencia is made from the most selective harvest of aszú grapes, a special variety affected by noble rot (Botrytis cinerea). This fungus causes the grapes to partially dry while still on the vine, resulting in a higher concentration of sugars and flavors. The magic of Essencia lies in this natural phenomenon, which only occurs in certain years when conditions are perfect.\n\n\n \nHand-picking the aszú grapes is a labor-intensive process where each berry is individually selected and collected. The grapes are so rich in sugars that they are almost syrupy. After picking, these grapes are placed in barrels, where they naturally release their juices under their own weight without any pressing. This juice, which slowly seeps from the aszú grapes, is known as Essencia. Due to its high sugar concentration, this liquid ferments extremely slowly, and sometimes fermentation stops naturally when the alcohol content is still relatively low.\n\n\n \nThis syrupy, sweet Essencia can age for years, even decades, in oak barrels beneath the cellars of the Tokaj region. During this time, the wine develops complex flavors and aromas ranging from lush fruit to exotic spices, and maintains a balanced acidity that cuts through the sweetness, resulting in a wine of remarkable depth and length. The end result is a wine so rich and concentrated that it is often served with a spoon, as the ultimate expression of Hungarian winemaking artistry.","brand":"Fourcroy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42775872634959,"sku":"287","price":299.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/9358\/0879\/files\/chateau-dereszla-tokaji-aszu-eszencia-hongarije.webp?v=1718960403"},{"product_id":"valdespino-el-candado-pedro-ximenez","title":"Valdespino El Candado Pedro Ximenez","description":"What a delicious Pedro Ximenez this is, so delicious it had to be padlocked.

The confluence of the Tisza and Bodrog rivers in Tokaj creates a fog similar to that of Sauternes. This fog encourages \"botrytis cinerea,\" or \"noble rot,\" which dries and shrivels the grapes that make up Tokaj wines, concentrating their sugars.\n\n\n \nThe term \"Aszú\" means noble rot (= botrytis). The first Tokaji Aszú wine was created by chance in 1650 because, under threat of a Turkish invasion, the harvest had to be postponed. It wasn't until November that the vineyards could safely be accessed again, and as a result, all the grapes had dried and shriveled. The result was a honey-like, syrupy liquid called Eszencia. This was then blended with some wine from a previous harvest, and Tokaji Aszú was born.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e Enjoy a full Royal Tokaji 6 puttonyos Aszu\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nThe excellent quality Aszú berries, with good structure and perfect botrytis, were macerated for two days in fermenting must. After pressing and fermentation, the wines are perfectly balanced. Gold Label is filled into 300- or 500-liter second- or third-fill Hungarian oak barrels and transferred to Royal Tokaji's extensive, deep underground cellars to mature for over two years. The final blend was made in early spring 2016, and the wine was bottled in May.\n\n\n\n This Aszu has a rich, intense nose with hints of grapefruit and spice. It's full-bodied with citrus, peach, and apricot flavors, a fine balance of sweet and sour, and a long, crisp finish. It pairs excellently with dishes featuring duck foie gras, blue cheeses, and fruit-based desserts.","brand":"Verbunt","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42775791534159,"sku":"105068","price":59.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/9358\/0879\/files\/royal-tokaji-6-puttonyos-aszu_105068.webp?v=1770111973"},{"product_id":"viticcio-vin-santo-chianti-classico","title":"Viticcio Vin Santo Chianti Classico","description":"A superb dessert wine from Tuscany, Italy, considered one of Italy's most beautiful regions.

Since 2019, the estate holds HVE Level 3 certification, the highest French recognition within this system, which beautifully demonstrates that the family combines classic Sauternes today with a modern, careful way of working in the vineyard.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fourcroy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45060700176463,"sku":"09200390","price":17.75,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/9358\/0879\/files\/ChateauHaut-ClaverieSauternes20200_375L_7edde6d8-e421-451b-89c6-1ba85ad409d6.webp?v=1777536134"}],"url":"https:\/\/perfectewijn.be\/en\/collections\/dessertwijn-overig.oembed","provider":"Perfecte Wijn","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
