Winemaking starts in the vineyard. Because we aim for the highest quality, we only use Class I aszú grapes, harvested in several rounds and sorted separately, to make our wine. In the first step, we use stalked and semi-stalked grapes to make our late harvest wine, Mylitta, which becomes the base wine for our asun. Once the base wine is made, we add 1 kg of aszú grapes per litre, followed by maceration, during which the aromas, flavours, aromatic substances and natural sugars are dissolved from the aszú grapes into the wine. After 24 hours of maceration, the grapes are gently pressed out and the young wine is put into oak barrels to age for 2-3 years. Bottled, it rests in our cellar for a further 2-3 years before being sold. Its ageing potential is generational. Since 2003, we have produced at least one barrel of 6-puttonyos Aszú every vintage, a difficult task in some vintages, but our hard work is confirmed by satisfied customers and excellent results in national and international wine competitions.

Characteristics
Its dry wines boast high acidity, great complexity, excellent structure and characteristic aromatics. They may be steely yet elegant in cooler vintages. Dry wines produced from ripe, but not overripe, grapes, harvested at full maturity, without any botrytised berries, can command high prices and have decades of ageing potential. They can be made from any of the permitted Tokaj varieties, but Furmint or Hárslevelű are the most common, followed by Sárgamuskotály.Sweet wines can deliver a wonderful sensory experience, depending on the sugar and dry extract content.Late-harvested sweet wines can be made good quality in the right vintages, but they are usually made from grapes which are either not botrytised or just have a touch of botrytis. Botrytis also concentrates the sugar and acidity in the grapes, so Tokaj sweet wines are well-balanced and lively and retain their fruitiness for a long time. Tokaj’s sweet wines are not dessert wines but rather balanced, often terroir wines, which happen to contain residual sugar.
