Bright, deep amber-orange. Superconcentrated and glyceral-rich but less aromatic and showy today than the 2006 6 Puttonyos, without quite that wine's electric acidity and sharp delineation. But this supersweet, densely packed wine nonetheless has sound penetrating acidity to cut through its intense apricot orange and mineral flavors. Finishes tactile and broad, with a hint of nutty oak.

Country: Hungary

Hungary was once considered one of the world's leading wine countries, with their distinctive and flavorful wines being the favorites of Europe's royal families until the early 20th century and the fall of the dual monarchy of Austria-Hungary. The Soviet Union all but obliterated Hungary's wine traditions, replacing their unique produce with the sweet and characterless red wines the country is still often associated with, yet thankfully, the past twenty five years has seen an impressive return to form. All over the historic Tokaj region, craftsmen and master vintners are using the grape varietals which thrive on the hillsides in the hot summers and long autumns to once again produce the amazingly flavored Tokaji wines – a wine made by allowing the grapes to wither on the vine, thus concentrating the sugars and producing remarkable flavors and aromas of marzipan, dried fruits, pear and candied peel.
