Description

The name Disznóko meaning “the rock of the wild boar” was first recorded in 1413 and refers to a large rock atop a small hill overlooking the vineyards. Listed as a “first growth” as far back as 1732, this 150ha vineyard in the south west of the Tokaji region has long been regarded as one of the region’s finest. As with much of Tokaji, Disznóko’s fortunes suffered under nationalization during the Communist era. But, in 1992, it was purchased by AXA Millésimes (owners of Château Pichon Longueville and Quinta do Noval, amongst others) who have reinvigorated Disznóko and put in the love and investment required to return it to the top rank of Tokaji estates.

Additional information

Weight 2 lbs
Maturing

The different lots were blended in November and the wine was aged on its fine lees in stainless steel vats for 4 months. Bottled in March 2024 in 750 ml Tokaji bottle with glass stoppers.

Vinification

The fruits of the different plots were vinified separately. The grapes were full bunch pressed (directly without destemming), allowed to settle for a night and then fermented in stainless steel vats at a temperature controlled between 16-18°C (61-64 F). No malolactic fermentation.

Harvest

Manual harvest of fully ripened, healthy bunches in small boxes of 20 kg (44 lbs) between the 13th and 22nd of September. Many different plots of the Disznókő vineyard were harvested and vinified separately.

Characteristics of the vintage

A great vintage. The year was warm but not excessively so, and relatively wet, unlike 2022. Mild winter, cool and wet spring followed by a capricious summer weather with more rain than usual. It led to a perfect ripening at mid- September. We have some very fine dry white wines that are fruit-driven, fresh and well-balanced, as well as rich and complex Aszú wines produced by excellent botrytisation.
