TOKAJ-HEGYALJA VINTAGE INFORMATION

Vintage information is available on all the recent vintages for back to 1988. This is important since we can only expect a good quality vintage three times a decade. When buying Tokaji it is advised to go for the best vintages. The Crown Estates Szarvas single vineyard wines come from the best vineyard in the region. This means that in years which are unexceptional elsewhere such as 1994, Szarvas has been able to produce exceptional quality wine like the 1994 - 6 puttonyos.
