Hungary
The wines of Hungary have a long and rich history, dating back over a thousand years. The country's unique climate and geography, combined with its winemaking traditions, have resulted in a range of distinctive wines that are gaining recognition worldwide.
One of the most famous Hungarian wines is Tokaji, a sweet wine made from grapes affected by botrytis, a beneficial mould that concentrates the grapes' sugars. Tokaji is known for its rich, honeyed flavors and is often compared to Sauternes from Bordeaux.
Hungary also produces high-quality dry white wines, including Furmint and Hárslevelű. These wines are known for their crisp acidity and mineral flavors and are often compared to the wines of Austria and Germany.
Hungarian winemakers are known for their use of traditional winemaking techniques, including aging wines in oak barrels and using indigenous grape varieties. This approach results in wines with unique flavors and aromas that are distinctive to the region. Leading producers in this country include Kiralyudvar, Oremus and Royal Tokaji, all of which produce a range of exceptional dry wine and noble rot sweet wine.

Wine Advocate (97)The latest release, the 2008 Tokaji Essencia from the Royal Tokaji Wine Company, was tasted over a period of three days. It is clearly cut from a different cloth to the 2007, disproving the idea that wines of such extraordinary sweetness conform to type. It is lighter on the nose than the 2007, with freshly cut tangerines, apricot and orange zest. There is a brightness here, a sense of energy. The palate is founded upon energy and tension, a silver thread of acidity that cuts through the layer upon layer of orange zest, Japanese yuzu, tangerine and honey. This is an elegant and you might argue, more reserved Essencia compared to the 2007. The alcohol is slightly higher at a whopping 4%, a relatively easier Essencia to consume compared to the unctuous previous vintage. While it might not achieve the concentration of the 2007, the 2008 Essencia remains an otherworldly feat of nature. I actually shared the remaining bottle with winemakers from Argentina and Portugal in Hong Kong and they became wide-eyed with amazement. That's the magic of Essencia. It might constitute blasphemy, but the freshness means you can enjoy this now, or as my drinking window suggests, wait another 100 years, as temporally fantastical as that sounds. |
