Tokaji Aszú falls under a ranking system labelled as Puttonyos, the higher the Puttonyos the higher the percentage of botrytized grapes used; making the wine richer and sweeter. This wine is the top dog, 6 Puttonyos. In fact, the only more premium category of Tokaji is called 'Eszencia,' it's so sweet that typically, it's served with a spoon and is pretty much reserved for the Hungarian Royal Family, when they're on their deathbed, believing the wine will revive them. You don't have to serve this wine with a spoon and we doubt it will prevent death but with its beautiful full-body, succulent flavours of apricot, marmalade, honey, white blossom and enlivening acidity, you might forget about mortality altogether.
On the same latitude as Chablis, Tokaji experiences a much warmer climate because of its central European location and the sheltering Carpathian Mountains. This, together with the influence of the Tisza and Bodrog rivers, produces the perfect conditions for noble rot. Made from individually picked botrytis berries, Patricius Aszú 6 is a blend of 3 core Tokaji varietals: Furmint, Harslevelu and Sarga Muskotaly (Muscat). The wine is breath-taking with flavours of apricots, hints of tropical fruit and floral notes permeating. High levels of residual sugar are balanced by soaring acidity of the Furmint, leaving a fresh lemony finish on the palate.
