Pajzos Tokaji Esszencia 2010 375 ml

Description:

Esszencia is literally the pure liquid of the Aszu berries that run off naturally from the vats in which they are collected during harvest. The sugar concentration is enormous (residual sugar over 450g/l) and the alcohol level remains low (3.3%). Unlike any other wine, the Esszencia maintains its quality and drinkability for at least 200 years!

Dark amber color. The nose shows very complex aromas of fresh apricot, honey, acid drop candy, that come along with hints of candied ginger and Earl Grey tea. Luscious and full-bodied on the palate with notes of apricot tart, white peach and lemon, completed by cardamom flavours. Great balance on a long, creamy finish.

95 Points - Wine Spectator

This rich, mouthcoating sweetie shows impeccable balance, with tangy, citrus-laced acidity and a zesty hint of candied ginger providing support for the fine range of fleshy poached peach and raspberry fruit, spun honey, lemon thyme and ground cardamom flavors. Long and creamy on the mouthwatering finish.
