Paangold is a small family business from Tolcsva in the south of the Hungarian Tokaj wine region. The company is led by owner and oenologist Antal Paulecz and his son. They make sweet Tokaj wines according to the centuries-old traditions of the region, but do a few things differently. They let the wines age much longer in oak barrels, and a large part of their wines - more than most other Tokaj winemakers - is made from the Muscat grape. Antal loves the distinctive aroma this grape gives his exclusive sweet wines.
A few years after the fall of the Wall, in 1998, Antal started making wine. Over time he acquired 28 hectares of vineyards, in Tokaj-Hegyalja, as the region is properly called. He grew up there in the town of Tolcsva, among the vines - winemaking was in his blood, since his father and grandfather made wine too. For Antal it was only natural that he would study oenology and become a winemaker as soon as the opportunity arose.
Six grape varieties are permitted for wines made under the region's appellation in Tokaj. The most commonly used are Furmint and Hárslevelű. Although Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains (called Sárgamuskotály in Tokaj) isn't an easy grape, Antal has planted it the most of all, on 13 of his 28 hectares. Muscat gives a distinctive and much-loved aroma to sweet Tokaj wines.
At Paangold they age the wines for a very long time in oak barrels - some for as long as twenty years. It's well known that sweet Tokaji Aszú wines age well, but we know no other producer who does it quite this way. It gives us the unique opportunity to drink old, developed Tokaji wines, which makes father and son Paulecz's wine business very special. We currently have seven wines from Paangold in our range.
