The wine is made from two types of grapes by blending their juices: berries affected by noble rot (Botrytis cinerea) and overripe clusters harvested in late autumn. Its distinctive feature is that it is fermented and aged in oak barrels for 20 months under a yeast veil, which gives the wine notes of green walnuts and almonds, ripe tropical fruits, and honey aromas. Smooth, with refreshing acidity. Long finish.
Residual sugar content - 77.9 g/l. Acidity - 6.7 g/l.
Serve at 10–12 °C with desserts, cheeses or a tropical fruit platter.
Chateau Dereszla is steeped in rich history when the first mention of the name occurred in 1406 as a storage cellar of wines collected for tax levies for the then king of Hungary. The estate changed hands for many centuries as it moved from Hungarian to Turkish to Austrian rulers until 1945. After WW II, it became part of a Hungarian Cooperative. At the turn of the century, in 2000, the estate was purchased by the French d’Aulan family who quickly modernized and streamlined production to create world-renowned wines. Under this French ownership, the Chateau achieved international recognition and became renowned for their Tokaji Aszu wines. Modernization continued the evolution of the estate and it reached an important milestone when, in 2016, it became once again under Hungarian ownership.
