This wine's name comes from the old way of referring to the vineyard from where it comes. Mandolas is one of the Oremus vineyards and it is only planted with Furmint, the noblest variety of the region. During the weeks leading up to the harvest, the state of ripening of the grape is systematically checked and the golden yellow, health and ripe bunches are picked. A must with great density is obtained using a delicate and gentle pressing. Fermentation is in new wood barrels, which are carefully prepared, and takes between 8 and 12 days. The wine is aged in 136-litre small barrels, which are typical of the region.

Tokaj, the wine of kings and king of wines" is how Louis XIV described it when he tasted it and the legend of the Tokaj has steadily grown over its more than four hundred year history. The Oremus vineyard was first mentioned in 1630 and today it enjoys the highest universal recognition. Having fallen into disrepute during the communist era, Tokaj’s fortunes were revived in the 1990’s with the arrival of dynamic Western European producers bringing investment and know-how. One of the first was Bodegas Vega Sicilia, indisputably Spain's greatest estate, which in 1993 acquired one of Tokay's most highly-regarded properties in the top-rated village of Tolcsva, at the region's heart. Rechristened Bodegas Oremus, the winery boasts 115 hectares of "first growth" vineyard plus several kilometers -- and five levels -- of underground cellars hand hewn into volcanic rock. Wines have been ageing there under perfect conditions since the 12th century, in locally made, 136-liter Gonci and 220-liter Szerednyei oak casks.
