Would not have guessed this as 1989. Zippy acidity, beautiful blend of raisins and citrus, rich nose. Could drink this all night.

1989 vintage

Cooler vintage in Tokay Late vintage rains in September, October too much rain and diluted the grapes. Pale gold colour, Citrus on the nose, lemon, very fresh, strong botrytis notes on the nose, Fresh acidity, clean, more citrus, strong honey taste. Drinking well now.

2020 vintage

Marmalade in colour and to some extent on the nose. Not the most nuanced. It's entered a sweet/dry phase where both sugar and fruit are starting to succumb to the acidity. Fairly clean and an interesting dessert pairing.

2001 vintage

Dark amber. Noticed orange citrus on the nose and orange and apricots on the palette. Nice bottle. *3rd night celery, caraway, light raisins and all around pleasant aromatics. Beautiful. Having had two beautiful aged bottles of Tokaji that were so complex and beautiful. Tokaj region is definitely a contender with the best of Europe next to the best regions of France and Southern Germany.

1992 vintage

This bottle was served as a part of the celebration of a friend's 30th birthday. The wine is translucent brown in colour. In the nose the wine feels quite aged, there are notes of dried fruits and some smoke. On the palate the wine is sweet, has medium acidity and great length. It shows notes of ripe pineapple, raisins, figs and peaches. The wine feels quite weighty and developed, revealing some toastiness and a hint of smoke as it opens …

1992 vintage

The nose isn't especially rich or obviously botrytised, with some marmalade character. Medium sweetness only. quite high acidity. Possibly drying a little. Quite long. Interesting rather than fine.

2001 vintage

Apricot colour, apricots in mouth. Some barley sugar, some light honey. decent acidity. Medium plus sweetness. Long. Lovely.

2009 vintage

Fabulous nectar! Great balance of sweetness and acidity. Aromas of honey, caramel and chocolate. Complex and very long. Amazing partner of a cigar, or simply to enjoy after dinner on its own. Obviously, can age for another few decades.

1988 vintage

Early Spring Homing Pidgin (Home) : Delicious wine. Icing sugar and unripe tropical fruit on the nose. In the mouth there is an intense flavour of apricot, plus honey and shortbread, all counterbalanced by bitter marzipan. My only bottle of tokaji and I will now seek out more...

2009 vintage

Bottle was a gift that had not been stored properly. Aromas were on point, but flavors were off.

1988 vintage

Monthly tasting club "The Tasting Club" Hungary (@ MM) : Coffee, caramel and a firm amount of sweetness. No more notes and no score.

2001 vintage

Well made, balanced, medium plus acid. More oak than is necessary, which may always be prominent. The wine needs time to evolve, say five to seven years, and should last through 2030-2032. 92-93.

2009 vintage

golden color, plush mouth feel, honey and beeswax on the nose, long, long finish

2001 vintage

Rich texture and long subtle flavor. Honey, lots of fruits and long finish with grate balance.

1992 vintage

decisamente ossidato, non ha molto da dire. In bocca l'acidità è ancora presente ma l'aromaticità del vino è tutta su note poco interessanti: noci, vinile, frutta fermentata.

1992 vintage

Très beau Tokaji,bien équlibré et frais, j'aime bien cette maison.

2001 vintage

Medium brown color with yellow meniscus; mature, raisin, mincemeat, Lipton lemon tea nose; mature, lemon, lemon peel, lemon tea palate with medium acidity; medium-plus finish

1992 vintage

Marmalade and honey! Palate deep and rich, though plenty of acid. Good round and full feeling. Perhaps not as intensely sweet as the nose prophesied. Not cloying at all. Seductive indeed. Very clean and stylish. I like this a lot, more so than previous Tokaji I have tried. None of the slightly maderized sensations I've come across before. Delicious and moreish - the opinion shared by others at the table too.

2001 vintage

Rik duft av tørket frukt, aprikos, stekt banan, botytris og med hint av sherry. Fet og sødmefull i munnen. Bløt og moden frukt med bitre ettertoner. Flott konsentrasjon og fylde. Lang, fet ettersmak. 90-91 P

2001 vintage

Drank at Lunch A lovely Tokaji that has a huge complexity of honey, brown sugar and some spiciness to the finish. The 5 Puttonyos is sweet but not to over the top and goes very well with at the end of a meal. A lovely example of how to make good Tokaji in the traditional method

2001 vintage

Pretty nice

2001 vintage

Nice and pleasant, not overy sweet. Nice body and finish. Still too young.

2001 vintage

Team dinner (@ Home) : So incredibly young, excellent fruit, powerful and concentrated, very high acidity masks the sweetness, immensely energetic. Perfect with lemon tart. Now - 2030.

2001 vintage

Brilliant amber hue. Deliciously expressive nose of raisins, sherry, honey and sweet yellow fruit. Unctuous texture, taste of dried apples, honey, orange marmelade, and again sherry and raisins. Great acidity; should keep for at least 5 more years at this level without any problem.

1992 vintage

Walnuts, marmalade and citrus with a hint of spice. Strong backbone of acid hides the sweetness well. Very well balanced, oxidative older style of tokaji. No hint of shortcut fortification on this wine. Delicious! Really grows on you throughout the night. Make sure you don't share with friends or family or they will all be gone!

1988 vintage

Undistinguished, very oxidised and musty/fusty/woody. Pleasant but not a hint of the sweet/sour fruit action which makes Tokaji into sex bomb it can, and ought to, be. 83P

1988 vintage

Are you sure?
