Attractive aromas of dried apricots and dried mangoes with hints of caramel, fresh honey, exotic spice and dried orange. It’s dense and creamy with vivid acidity coming through. Rich but not overly sweet, with hints of oolong tea and orange blossom at the end. Delicious. Drink or hold.

The 2014 Tokaji Aszú 5 Puttonyos undergoes 75% maceration with Aszú berries for half a day and is aged for 18 months in oak barrels. This has a very focused and more complex bouquet than the 2015. It's pure and conveys a greater sense of energy. The palate is medium-bodied with an engaging entry, sensual and vibrant. It displays an orange rind, mango and honey mixture, and the acidity effortlessly cuts through on the finish. It is one of the best vintages for the 5 Puttonyos, and comes highly recommended. (NM)

A blend of 69% Furmint, 25% Zéta, and 6% Hárslevel? Aszú berries with a base wine of equal parts Furmint and Hárslevel?, aged 18 months in mostly neutral oak, the 2014 Tokaji Aszú 5 Puttonyos sports a deeper gold hue with a kiss of amber creeping in.

It's medium-bodied and beautiful on the palate, with a pure, lively mouthfeel, bright acidity, and a citrus pith, grippy finish that keeps you coming back to the glass. It's fully mature and balances its sweetness and acidity beautifully. There are about 5,200 cases produced. Drink bottles over the coming decade or more.
