Kapi is a super-premium 6 Puttonyos wine produced from a single parcel (the first ‘Grand Cru’ site identified and vinified separately by Disznókő) in very limited quantities. It is only produced in exceptional vintages. Planted on the upper part of the southern slopes of Disznókő, this plot has slightly lighter and more mineral soil than elsewhere on the estate and has come to be identified for the delicacy and precision of its wines. Not only are these single-vineyard wines but they are also single-variety wines; Kapi is 100% Furmint. With diamond-like precision, these are truly amazing wines, balancing staggering depth with the trademark, zesty, mixed citrus freshness of Disznókő wines.



Disznóko Aszu 6 Puttonyos Kapi 2015

Reviews

“The 2015 vintage boasts white pepper-spiced mango, marmalade and apricot on the nose. Very sweet (residual sugar at 187 g/l, much higher than its predecessors, 2011 and 2005) and pure on the palate but by no means lack of elegance. The crushed stone minerality and solid acidity (7.65 g/l) refresh the ripe yellow fruits. Candied orange peel flavours last till the long finish. Aged in 25% new oak barrels for 2 years.”
95 points, Sylvia Wu, Decanter
“This gold-flecked, amber-colored Hungarian sweet wine is made from 100% Furmint grapes harvested from the Kapi Vineyard. It has aromas of ripe peach, honeysuckle, white flowers and pear. In the mouth it is velvety smooth, with flavors of apricot preserves, honeycomb, peach and pear. Luscious sweetness is offset by bracing acidity, making this an elegant example of a Tokaji Aszu.”
