Philippe Perreault rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

This dessert wine is mainly made of Furmint.
Deep golden color with notes of ripe peach, honeydew, white flower, honey and orange peel.

Pair it with an orange sorbet.
Serve it at 8-10 degrees.
Enjoyable now but can still be aged 10-15 years.

Jon Steeves rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

Ripe peaches, mandarin orange, candied ginger root, with a hint of slight minerality. Well balanced, juicy rich densely concentrated fruit. Full bodied and luscious. Pair with slightly sweet deserts, with stone fruit or apple. Tasted Dec 2016 - rated 91/100. Great value.

Natalie's Review

Puklus Cellar 3 Puttonyos Tokaji Aszu 2012, Tokaj-Hegyalja, Hungary: Splendid! Rich apricot, clementine unfolds on the palate enveloped by layers of ripe peach goodness. Supremely great dessert wine! Hungary's Tokaji region is renowned for making the "king of wines" - the sweet wine Tokaji Aszù. The more “Puttonyos,” which range from 3 to 6, the sweeter the wine. This lovely dessert elixir finishes with apricot preserves, pear, and clementine. The acidity and moderate sweetness makes it very balanced and suitable for nuts, cheeses and fruit-based desserts. Drink: 2016-2020. 980805 13.50% S 500 mL $20.95 Score: 93/100. December 30, 2016 Top Rated Dessert Wine. Divine Dessert Wine Full Review
