Mád Cuvée, Tokaj – 2010 – 93 points, Best Buy – Wine & Spirits
93 points

“It rained so much in 2010 — nearly half of the harvest season — that Royal Tokaji didn’t produce any Aszu wines at all. What healthy, late-harvest grapes they did manage to collect went into the Mad Cuvee (Called Ats Cuvee in Hungary, after the former winemaker who developed it). It’s dynamic, and totally Tokaji in character, though it’s not particularly sweet — ‘I could drink a whole bottle of this myself,’ said one taster, remarking on its balance and deliciousness. The fruit feels full but weightless, all burnt orange marmalade and sweet peach; the acidity and minerality keep it edgy and buoyant, and allow it to finish clean.”
