Wine Description
The first perfect, 100-point score ever bestowed by Wine & Spirits Magazine.
New, it has whiplash flavors and off-the-chart acidity that can catch in your throat. As it mellows, it casts an almighty deposit, it turns a wonderful bright mahogany color and weaves an astonishing tapestry of flavors of apricots, quinces, marmalade, butterscot Chateau.. 'So different from other wines' said one critic, 'that it is like seeing a new primary color'.
The first vintage of the "true" Royal Tokaji Essencia since the celebrated 1993, the 1999 Essencia is offered in a stately brass-hinged wooden box carved from Hungarian oak, lined with velvet and containing a hedonistic first the indulgent Royal Tokaji Hungarian crystal sipping spoon. The spoon was designed exclusively for Royal Tokaji, enabling 33 sips per bottle or 66 if you share your spoonful with a loved one. The back label bears the number of each bottle produced.
