The 2017 Tokaji Szt. Tamás 6-Puttonyos comes from red-clay topsoils in the commune of Mád. This is more backward compared to the Mézes Mály, and very much more citrus-driven, featuring lemon peel, orange zest and crushed stone aromas; the Aszú element is more discreet. The fresh, vibrant palate is well balanced and harmonious, offering a fine bead of acidity and candied orange peel toward the finish. Edgier than Royal Tokaji's other 2017s, and perhaps spicier on the finish, this will be fascinating to observe mature in bottle. 3,635 bottles produced. 2027 - 2050
A bright pale golden colour. Youthful. Beautifully perfumed and exotic on the nose with bundles of tropical fruits, sweet honey and a citrusy spritz too. Melons and pineapple. Both the viscous density and fresh minerality on the palate are wonderous. Tension, grip, zip, flintiness. Oodles of lime cordial. Multi layered, opulent, gorgeous and seemingly unending on the finish. What a fabulous wine !
