94 points Wine Spectator: "Thick and dense yet never heavy, with aromas that flit from floral and vegetal to caramel and smoke and back again. There's noticeable sweetness matched by a brisk acidity that need time to integrate. Fine, lingering finish. Seems monolithic today, so be patient. Best from 2003 through 2015." 100 cases imported. –BS (Oct 31, 2001) Aszu Essencia is a blend of Nyulaszo and St Tamas vineyards.
