Il va encore gagner des points avec le temps. Le sucre commence à être bien fondu, équilibre atteint, il va prendre encore en complexité mais on a déjà de l'écorce d'orange et de l'abricot. À attendre.

Hazy notes from a few days ago. A very nice Tokaji, fairly rich in style, with apricots and jam, but enough acidity to keep the fruit fresh. Not a great deal of complexity yet, but quite tasty (A-).

Seems extremely ypung and does not appear to be heavily influenced by boytritis. More fresh than dry fruit and honey. Very concentrated and sweet, with good acidity to (almost) balance this out. Long finish.

Tokaji is one of my favourite dessert wine regions, if not my absolute favourite so I’m abit biased. I think this wine offers excellent balance between sweetness and acidity, and the apricot and bright fruit flavours come through clearly. Can age

Pale golden. Broad, silky and creamy with a wonderful nose of peach & tropical fruits. Apricot notes appear with citrus in the mouth. Very smooth Aszú with a lower acidity than we usually expect.. Lovely lingering finish

Very light and pale in colour for a five putts wine. Citrus, honeysuckle and orange blossom. Very light, precise but beautifully balanced sweetness cut through with good acidity. Lovely, and a superb match with the mango millefeuille. Very elegant and with a weightlessness unusual in Tokaji. ****

Nose: marmalade, hints of vanilla, very intense and flows from the glass
Palate: sweet and full, yet light as a feather and dances across your tongue to leave you impressed by the long finish that has hints of honey. very nice. Would buy again.

Glorious balanced nose. Light fresh apricots & even lighter & fresher honey. One of Lightest Tokaji I can recall Super fresh palate. Really light. Very elegant. Sweet but the absolute opposite of cloying.

Clean developing nose with a medium(+) intensity. There are well-defined notes of dried apricot, dried pineapple, and marmalade. Swirling reveals a honey aroma.
The wine is sweet with medium(+) acidity, medium(-) alcohol, and medium body. The flavours have a medium intensity and follow the nose with notes of marmalade, apricot, and subtle pineapple. The palate shows notes that were not detected on the nose: peaches, subtle vanilla, and a butter note that develops on the finish as the marmalade fades. The finish has a medium(+) length.
This is a very good quality wine. The flavours are very concentrated and have a great balance with the acidity and the alcohol. The sweetness has an amazing balance with the acidity, and provides an interesting textural dimension that complements the flavour profile. The wine shows complexity with primary, secondary, and tertiary characters. The subtle oak treatment allows the primary and tertiary notes to be fully expressed. The wine is very enjoyable and has a finish with great length.
This wine drinks well now, and is suitable for further ageing.

Un classique. Toujours bon et bien fait. Bel équilibre, belles saveurs de pêches, de miel, de fleurs blanches et d`épices douces. Finale longue et salivante. Très bon.

Bouche liquoreuse et salivante (acidité) d'abricot, de pêches et de vanille sur un fond discret de vieilles noix.
Encore très jeune, ce vin encore frais n'est pas très complexe en ce moment, on devra lui donner encore du temps...

A private celebratory dinner, 'bring your own' (28-50 Marylebone, London): From halves. Like drinking pineapple, with dried apricots and peach. Still clean and fresh. Good.
