“As the soil, however rich it may be, cannot be productive without cultivation, so the mind without culture can never produce good fruit.” – Seneca
On the nose, fresh medlar dominates the scent with Williams pear compote and a hint of sage. On the palate, apricot jam leads the experience, with notes of mandarin and fig.

The winter was mild and poor of rain and snow, which made a well-paced pruning possible but the soil could not absorb enough water for the upcoming growing season. Spring arrived late with low temperatures (lasted till the end of April), so budding took place 2 weeks later than usual. Thanks to the dry and warm weather in May, the plant could catch up, and blooming started on time. After that, we experienced the driest and hottest summer of the last century which urged an early harvest of our dry wines. The amount of rainfall in September was 3 times higher than the average of the previous years. Sugar levels were declining, humidity constantly diluted the berries, and grape skin became thicker due to the extreme summer weather, so botrytis rose slowly. These conditions made us delay our sweet harvest for three weeks and we started harvesting our aszú berries only on the 19th of October ensuring the HOLDVÖLGY quality for our flagship wine. The harvest period ended on the 4th of November in the Becsek and Király vineyards. The heavy drought not only resulted in lower yields but caused trouble during the winemaking process as well (less juice, difficult pressing). Thanks to the careful, creative work of our winemaker, we will present a diverse portfolio this year.
A tokaji aszú wine is unique and limited. It is about unrepeatable and exceptional
uniqueness just like the most important moments of your life. Furthermore, a premium quality aszú wine preserves its value even for a century. This allows us to recall our most cherished memories with just a sip, using bottles made from fruit harvested in the year as the event.
Tokaj Aszú wines are released eight years after the harvest. Based on Holdvölgy’s experience, this is the optimal time for the wines to reach the maturity needed for exploration. To ensure customers can enjoy wines from significant vintages for themselves or their loved ones, these wines can be purchased before their official release year.

Our Tokaji Aszú wines can retain their quality and enjoyment for over 50 years when stored under ideal conditions.
