The Story

Only made in excellent years when the harvest of noble berries is particularly abundant, this is an incredibly rich and unique wine. It has exceedingly low alcohol (1 to 3%), as the amount of sugar concentrated in it does not manage to ferment, so that it is not unusual to find 500 or more grams of residual sugar per liter. The Aszú berries are collected one by one and left to rest for 15 to 20 days; the only crushing is from the slight pressure from the weight of the berries. The resulting must is put in 50-liter glass containers, where it undergoes an extremely slow fermentation. After 2 years, it is decanted into 68-liter barrels known as átalag, for further aging; after bottling, the wines are sged for several more years before release.

Written Notes

It has deep amber hue, hinting at its exquisite age and complexity.The nose is a captivating medley of dried apricots, figs, and honeyed notes. Aromas conjure images of an ancient wine cellar filled with treasures.On the palate, this Tokaji wine is a harmonious symphony of sweetness and depth. Flavors of dried fruits, rich caramel, and a touch of exotic spices create a luxurious and velvety tasting experience.The finish is an opulent and enduring conclusion, leaving an indelible impression of honeyed nectar and a subtle hint of toasted nuts.


Savor this exceptional Eszencia on its own as a contemplative dessert or alongside dishes like crème brûlée, baklava, or a selection of fine cheeses, especially those with nutty and creamy profiles.
