The sweet wine of kings and king of sweet wines. Stilton loves this. Jane MacQuitty, The Times (Dec 2024)

*Case price discount: Mix any 12 bottles of wine (or 9 litre equivalent) or 6 bottles of Champagne, Spirits, Sweet Wine or Fortified (4.5 litres) to get the discounted 'case price' for each bottle.

The 2014 Tokaji Aszú 5 Puttonyos undergoes 75% maceration with Aszú berries for half a day and is aged for 18 months in oak barrels. This has a very focused and more complex bouquet than the 2015. It's pure and conveys a greater sense of energy. The palate is medium-bodied with an engaging entry, sensual and vibrant. It displays an orange rind, mango and honey mixture, and the acidity effortlessly cuts through on the finish. It is one of the best vintages for the 5 Puttonyos, and comes highly recommended.

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.
