$35.95
The Aszú wines are the differentiating factor of the Tempos Vega Sicilia wines. They combine tradition, innovation and excellence, and become sublime wines with their roots in a unique terroir.
Oremus is the symbol and example of the rewarding of time, experience and knowledge, of the real expertise in the art of wine.
Mandolás is a surprising wine. Its essence is young, ground-breaking, revolutionary and not frightened to explore... and is able to enrich the winemaking tradition of a region as distinguished as Tokaj.
A different wine that has managed to break from the past, giving impetus to Tokaj's new present, where dry white wines, led by Mandolás, are proving to be ground-breaking.
This wine's name comes from the old way of referring to the vineyard from where it comes. Mandolás is one of the Oremus vineyards and it is only planted with Furmint, the noblest variety of the region.
During the weeks leading up to the harvest, the state of ripening of the grape is systematically checked and the golden yellow, health and ripe bunches are picked.
A must with great density is obtained using a delicate and gentle pressing. Fermentation is in new wood barrels, which are carefully prepared, and takes between 8 and 12 days.
The wine is aged in 136-litre small barrels, which are typical of the region.
"There's a waxy edge to the lush flavors of poached white peach and quince fruit, walnut oil and lemon curd, while rapierlike acidity provides definition and fine form. Offers an intriguing interplay, with hints of white blossoms and baking spices lingering on the salty finish. Drink now through 2027. 9,450 cases made, 926 cases imported." - 91 points, Wine Spectator
