Oremus Tokaji Aszú 5 Puttonyos 1989
Tokaj, Hungary – Legendary Sweet Wine
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Description
Oremus Tokaji Aszú 5 Puttonyos 1989 is a legendary sweet wine from Hungary’s historic Tokaj region. Produced by the iconic Oremus estate — owned by the Vega Sicilia family since 1993 — this 1989 vintage was crafted under the former socialist regime, making it a rare collector’s item with both historical and enological value.
An extraordinary botrytised dessert wine with exceptional concentration, vibrant acidity, and nearly eternal ageing potential.

Tasting Notes
Deep amber colour with golden highlights. Complex bouquet of dried apricot, honey, candied orange peel, walnut, saffron, and black tea. On the palate: dense yet elegant, with sweetness perfectly balanced by vibrant acidity. The finish is endless, mineral, and layered — a true Tokaji masterpiece.
