The 2017 Royal Tokaji Nyulászó 1st Growth Tokaji Aszú 6 Puttonyos is a single-vineyard dessert wine from one of Tokaj’s most celebrated sites, showcasing exceptional richness, structure and freshness from an outstanding vintage. Sourced from volcanic soils in the Nyulászó vineyard, it represents the pinnacle of Tokaji Aszú with remarkable balance and ageing potential. The nose is aromatic and layered, offering apricot, orange zest and dried mango, alongside floral notes, honey and subtle spice.
On the palate, it is luscious and concentrated with a silky texture, delivering flavours of marmalade, peach and candied citrus, balanced by vibrant acidity and a mineral backbone, leading to a long, poised finish. The style is rich yet precise, combining opulence with elegance and freshness.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a top-tier Tokaji for collectors or serious sweet wine lovers. It offers both immediate pleasure and long-term ageing potential. Drink from 2027 onwards or cellar for 20–30+ years. Perfect with foie gras, blue cheese or fruit-based desserts.
