Product Notes

The Royal Tokaji Blue Label 5 Puttonyos is a splendid Hungarian wine brimming with heightened depth. Displaying luminous golden hue, it proffers opulent aromas of honey, peach and marmalade, layered with hints of toasted almond and vanilla. With appealing intensity, the wine showcases an exquisite balance between rich sweetness and refreshing acidity. This luxurious tipple smoothly takes over the palate unveiling complex flavours of dried apricot, caramel and spices. The lingering finish evokes further notes of citrus and oak. A five puttonyos rating confirms its high sugar content, making it an indulgent dessert wine, perfect for accompanying your dearest blue-vein cheese or dipped fruit.
