Made primarily from Furmint grapes affected by noble rot, this 6 Puttonyos Aszú represents the highest traditional sweetness category, beautifully balanced by Tokaj’s signature racy acidity. The outstanding 2007 vintage and Füleky’s meticulous approach come together in a wine that is both indulgent today and cellar‑worthy for years to come.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, this Tokaji Aszú shows a deep golden to amber hue with brilliant viscosity that clings to the sides of the glass, signaling its richness and concentration. The nose is intensely aromatic, offering layers of dried apricot, candied orange peel, acacia honey, and quince paste, intertwined with notes of saffron, chamomile, toasted nuts, and a subtle hint of botrytis spice.\n\nOn the palate, the wine is opulent and silky, with luscious sweetness lifted by vibrant, mouthwatering acidity—one of the hallmarks of top Furmint-based Aszú. Flavors echo the nose, with additional nuances of fig, caramelized pear, and a touch of marzipan and spice on a very long, persistent finish. Despite its richness, the structure remains precise and energetic rather than heavy. From the 2007 vintage, this wine has excellent aging potential: it is drinking beautifully now but can easily evolve and gain further complexity over 15–25 years in a proper cellar.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Tokaji Aszú comes from select vineyards in Tokaj-Hegyalja, where volcanic subsoils, clay, and loess combine with misty autumn mornings and sunny afternoons to create ideal conditions for botrytis (noble rot). Furmint grapes are hand-harvested in several passes, with workers carefully selecting shriveled, botrytised Aszú berries at peak concentration. These berries are then macerated in a base wine or fermenting must, with the traditional 6 Puttonyos designation indicating a particularly high ratio of Aszú berries to must, resulting in greater sweetness and intensity. After gentle pressing, the wine is slowly fermented and aged in small oak barrels in cool, humid cellars, where it develops its characteristic complexity, depth, and long-lived structure before bottling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFüleky Tokaji Aszú 6 Puttonyos 2007 is a superb match for rich desserts featuring stone fruits, citrus, or caramel—think apricot tart, crème brûlée, lemon tart, or almond cake. It also pairs beautifully with blue cheeses such as Roquefort or Gorgonzola, and with foie gras as a luxurious starter. For a more minimalist pairing, serve it with roasted nuts or simply on its own as a contemplative digestif. Serve lightly chilled, around 10–12°C (50–54°F), to preserve its aromatic complexity without muting its flavors. Decanting is usually not necessary, but opening the bottle 15–20 minutes before serving and allowing it to breathe in the glass can help the bouquet fully unfold.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFüleky is a quality‑driven estate based in the village of Bodrogkeresztúr in the heart of Tokaj-Hegyalja, a UNESCO World Heritage wine region renowned for producing some of the world’s most historic sweet wines.
