About this wine

Tokaji Aszú 5 Puttonyos Château Pajzos is a classic, opulent Tokaji dessert wine from Hungary’s historic Tokaji region, showing deep golden colour, lush botrytised fruit and a bright balancing acidity that gives the wine silkiness without cloying sweetness. Meet the producer Château Pajzos is a long-established Tokaji estate, historically classified among the region’s finest and restored under private ownership in the 1990s to produce ageworthy, classically styled Aszú wines. Production Hand-harvested selection of Aszú berries and botrytised bunches; must prepared to optimal acid-to-sugar balance; fermentation in 220 L Szerednyei oak barrels from the Zemplén hills; aged in barrel for approximately three years before bottling. Tasting notes Deep golden colour. Aromas of ripe peaches, acacia honey and orange peel evolve into botrytis-driven notes of sweet spice, candied lemon, honeysuckle and meringue. The palate is opulent and luscious with dried apricot and fig, balanced by fresh acidity and a silky mouthfeel, finishing exceptionally long. Food match Serve chilled by the glass with fresh fruit and chocolate desserts, or pair with Asian desserts or blue cheeses. Excellent cellar potential of several decades. Grape Furmint 55%; Hárslevelű 45%.
