Tasting notes
The 2013 Tokaji Szt. Tamás 6-Puttonyos contains 175.6g/L residual sugar with 11.1g/L acidity. The Vouvray-like bouquet is slightly more resinous and petrolly compared to the Betsek. The palate is fresh and very well balanced, offering notes of orange cordial, peach and apricot. Very elegant in style, displaying more depth and poise on the finish than the Betsek and Nyulászó. Now this has real potential! Tasted at the Royal Tokaji Company tasting in London.

RS 175.6 g/l, TA 11.1 g/l. First growth. Excellent green citrus intensity on the nose. Long and fruit-driven, accompanied by runny honey and floral character, leading into a bit of yellow cherry aroma on the finish. Wonderful ripe vegetal notes too, showing some of the botrytis character, perhaps. Immersive! (RH)
