«The king of wines, the wine of kings»

King Louis XV of France remarked to his mistress, Madame de Pompadour, when he handed her a glass of Tokaji aszú: «This is the wine of kings and the king of wines». But he was not the first to say these apt words. The phrase had already appeared alongside the name of the wine on Louis XIV's court menu.

Tokaj-Hegyalja több mint bor - SeniorplusTo this day, the Latin equivalent of this phrase, 'Vinum regum, rex vinorum', is still used in recognition of the outstanding quality of Tokaj wines.

The Tokaj wine region, located in the north-east of Hungary, is a wine-growing area with a long tradition of winemaking, and has been listed as the world's first closed wine region since 1737. The Tokaj Wine Region comprises 27 municipalities and covers 5000 hectares of vineyards. Tokaj-Hegyalja was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2002.

Tokaj-Hegyalja produces the highest alcohol, sugar and acidity wines in the country. The secret of this wine is not to be found in the climate, location or soil conditions in particular, but in the combined effect of all of them.

It's no exaggeration to say that Tokaj is the best wine region in Hungary, and the best known in the world.
