Description
Discover the allure of Hétszőlő 5 Puttonyos, a distinguished Tokaji Aszú from Hungary's storied Tokaj-Hétszőlő estate. Rooted in a legacy dating back to 1502, this estate draws its name from seven prime vineyards, each contributing to wines of profound character. Under the guidance of Michel Reybier, celebrated for his stewardship of Bordeaux's Château Cos d'Estournel, Hétszőlő upholds a tradition of meticulous craftsmanship.
At the heart of this 5 Puttonyos expression lies carefully gathered botrytized Furmint grapes, selected for their ideal concentration. These noble berries undergo maceration in fresh must, embarking on a deliberate fermentation that yields a wine of remarkable depth and harmony. The result captures the essence of Tokaj's noble rot, delivering the designated sweetness level through time-honored practices refined over centuries.
Gaze upon its brilliant golden color, marked by a luxurious flow that hints at the treasures within. The bouquet unfolds with enticing notes of ripe apricots, bright citrus peel, sugared orange rind, and subtle spicy honey tones. On the tongue, it reveals a lush, generous body brimming with sun-kissed dried fruits, juicy peaches, and tangy marmalade accents. A lively freshness tempers the opulence, guiding toward an enduring close laced with soft vanilla whispers and caramel echoes.
Chill Hétszőlő 5 Puttonyos to 50–54°F before savoring its splendor.

In a 500 ml bottle holding 11.50% ABV, this Hungarian gem—rated at sweetness level 15—invites you to experience Tokaj's timeless elegance. Whether marking a celebration or simply treating yourself, it promises a sensory journey worth every sip.
