The 2016 Tokaji Oremus Aszú 6 Puttonyos is a world-class sweet wine from Hungary’s historic Tokaj region, crafted from hand-selected grapes affected by noble rot and produced by the renowned Oremus estate. The 6 Puttonyos designation represents the pinnacle of traditional Tokaji sweetness, delivering exceptional concentration while maintaining the vibrant acidity that has made Aszú one of the world’s most celebrated dessert wines for centuries.
On the palate, it is rich, layered and remarkably precise, with flavours of apricot, peach and orange marmalade complemented by notes of acacia honey, candied citrus, saffron and dried tropical fruits. The wine’s natural acidity provides outstanding freshness and balance, preventing the sweetness from becoming heavy. Its silky texture and extraordinary depth lead to a long, persistent finish filled with honeyed fruit, spice and mineral complexity.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an exceptional choice for lovers of fine dessert wines and collectors seeking a bottle with both immediate appeal and outstanding ageing potential. The balance of richness, freshness and complexity makes it one of the great sweet wine styles of the world. Enjoy now or cellar confidently for the next 20–30 years. Pair with blue cheese, foie gras, fruit tarts, crème brûlée or enjoy on its own as a contemplative after-dinner wine.
