Tokaji 1413 Sweet Szamorodni – Disznókő
Disznókő’s 1413 Sweet Szamorodni is named after the year that the winery’s name was first recorded in writing. This sweet wine has a medium golden color with a spicy, fruity nose displaying blood orange, tangerine, honey and sandalwood aromas. The palate is rich and structured with some light tannins on the long finish. This Szamorodni was made from Furmint (93 percent) and Hárslevelű grapes. The clusters were destemmed followed by a short skin contact before pressing. Most of the wine was fermented in stainless steel vats, with a small portion in used oak barrels. The wine was aged for 12 months in the traditional underground cellar of Tokaj in 225-liter oak barrels. This makes for an outstanding aperitif! It’s the perfect partner to foie gras. You can also try it with seafood dishes made with creamy sauce and lemon, duck dishes with fruit sauce, and mixed plates with fruit, nuts, and cheese.

In 1700 Tokaj developed one of the world’s earliest vineyard classification systems, and Tokaj is most famous for being the birthplace of Tokaji Aszú—one of the world’s oldest sweet wines.
Located in northeastern Hungary—which historically has been the crossroads of Central Europe—the region is framed by natural borders: the town of Tokaj in the southwest corner where the Bodrog and the Tisza rivers meet, the Bodrog river to the southeast, and the Zemplén hills to the northwest. The Tokaj region has 5,500 hectares of vineyards and 27 towns and villages. Wines from the different vineyards can all be quite different, and winemakers here love to experiment with single vineyard wines.
On top of its long and fascinating history, the Tokaj region has so much for wine-lover’s to discover. It is rich in a variety of volcanic soils; has a microclimate ideal for bringing on noble rot (botrytis); grows some really interesting indigenous grape varieties; and has a truly enchanting subterranean labyrinth of mould-covered cellars where the wines age. Though Tokaj is best known for its sweet Aszú wines, which are made from botrytized grapes, more than half of the wine it produces is dry.
Six official grape varieties grow in Tokaj. The superstars are the indigenous varieties Furmint and Hárslevelű, with Furmint being the high profile grape that tends to steal the show. Other varieties grown in smaller quantities are Sárga Muskotály, Kövérszölö, Zéta (a crossing of Furmint and Bouvier), and Kabar (a crossing of Hárslevelű and Bouvier). All of these wines are being increasingly made in dry styles, which winemakers are embracing because they are more marketable.
But it’s the sweet wines which make the region so unlike any other. They rely on the development of botrytis, which comes with the right weather conditions. The harvest here is a long, labor-intensive process which starts with the dry wine harvests, and continues with the harvesting of the botrytized grapes, which is done by hand.
In addition to Aszú (which is made with botryized grapes which are selectively harvested by hand, one berry at a time), other styles include late harvest wines, sweet and dry versions of Szamorodni (made with whole clusters of grapes containing a mixture of both botrytized and healthy grapes), Forditás (made from the second pressing after Aszú is made), Máslás (made from the second pressing after Aszú is made), and Eszencia (made from the free-run juice of Aszú berries, so thick and concentrated that it only reaches about four percent alcohol).
Disznókő Winery is one of the Tokaj region’s largest privately owned wineries. László Mészáros has been running the estate for a few decades now, and under his supervision Disznókő has developed a unique style of Aszú wines. They are made in a less oxidative style, with less oak aging, sharper acidity, and a fresher mouthfeel. Disznókő was arguably the pioneer in the production of this style of lighter, easier-to-drink sweet Aszú wines. Disznókő is one of Tokaj’s most important wineries. Since it was established in the early 1990s by the French company AXA Millesime , Disznókő has been focused on producing balanced, easy to drink sweet wines, which spend a shorter period aging in barrels.
