Disznoko remains a premium producer of the Hungarian Tokaji style of sweet wines made from mix of botrytized and still Furmint and Harveslu grapes.
 
While I still find 1993 the best vintage, with 1999 and 1995 pretty good, this wine from 2000 has impressed me.
 
Golden in color, this wine of seville orange , olde english marmalade,and overripe lemon with a hint of butterscotch revels in glorious acidity to produce a tasty dessert.No shrinking violet at 18% EtOH, the residual appr3eciable sweeteness mingles with acidity to remove any astriginercny and harshness  alcohol might produce. This is better than the 1995 6 p, not as good as the 1993 5 or 6 p, but has a nice future ahead. 92-95 pts

That would be Hárslevelü, which with Furmint can also have Sárga Muscotály in the blend as well. The best I have enjoyed have been the Tokaji Aszú Essencia from Diznoko and Royal Tokaji with over 6 puttonyos (6 puttonnyos = 150g/l, so 200+g/l) the Essencia can be mighty sweet, yet great and seem relatively eternal just like eiswein can.
