95 points James Suckling: "This is a great introduction to Tokaji Aszu at the beginning of its (very long) ideal drinking window. Stunning nose of lemon curd, dried peach and candied pineapple. Rich and creamy with a touch of marzipan character, but more importantly bright acidity and fine tannins that makes this so invigorating. Spot-on balance through the very long and bright finish. A blend of 75% furmint, 15% zeta and 10% harslevelu. Sustainable. Drink or hold. (4/3/22)"
94 points VertdeVin: "The wine shows a bright, vivid golden colour. The nose is rich and honeyed, with notes of quince, honeysuckle, fresh and raisined grapes, dried apricots and candied mango. The palate is very elegant and ethereal, despite the level of sweetness, with crisp, piercing acidity and delicate notes of ginger and orange peel. The lingering finish shows a light smokiness and bitterness, adding to the overall freshness and finesse."
93 points Wine Spectator: "Round and creamy, with hints of praline and vanilla-infused pastry cream enriching the poached apricot, glazed clementine and candied ginger flavors. Features a citrus peel acidity that keeps this well-balanced and refreshed on the spiced finish. Drink now through 2028. (3/31/22)"
