Sweet with lightening zing like apricot jam hurled in a thunderbolt.Olly Smith, The Mail on Sunday (Dec 2017)

Aszú grapes 75% Furmint, 15% Zéta, 10% Hárslevelű. Current vintage. Especially good for savoury dishes. Lots of light rain so lots of botrytis and very soft berries requiring very gentle skin contact. RS 132 g/l, TA 7.2 g/l. Dark gold. Very round and nicely balanced already. Lovely now. Lime marmalade. No excess sugar or acid. Precocious. Satin texture. Very flattering. Drinking range: 2015 - 2030 Rating: 17++ Jancis Robinson OBE MW - www.JancisRobinson.com (Dec 2016)

Tasted at the Disznóko vertical in London, the 2007 Tokaji Aszu 5 Puttonyos is a blend of 75% Furmint, 15% Zéta and 10% Hárslevelu. It delivers 132 grams per liter of residual sugar. It had a difficult task following the superlative 2008, consequently the aromatics felt a little flatter at first and needed more encouragement from the glass. There is a touch of dried honey, custard, yellow flowers and honeysuckle. The palate is crisp and fresh on the entry, nicely structure with lemon peel, honey and dried orange peel, however, it just lacks some persistence on the finish and leaves you wanting more. Give this another 2-3 years in bottle. Tasted September 2016. Drinking range: 2018 - 2038 Rating: 90 Neal Martin, www.vinous.com (Oct 2016)

Disznókő

The name Disznókő - the rock of the wild boar - was first recorded in 1413 and refers to a large rock sat atop a small hill overlooking the vineyards. Listed as a "first growth" as far back as 1732, this 150ha vineyard in the south west of the Tokaji region has long been regarded as one of the region's finest.

As with much of Tokaji, Disznókő's fortunes suffered under nationalisation during the Communist era. But, in 1992, it was purchased by AXA Millésimes (owners of Château Pichon Longueville and Quinta do Noval, amongst others) who have reinvigorated Disznókő and put in the love and investment required to return it to the top rank of Tokaji estates.
