These are the vineyards of the Tokai Region of Hungary. The region's wine-producing tradition has been passed down from medieval times. The underground cellars of Tokai are an interconnected labyrinth of tunnels. They have made "la pourriture noble" – noble rot wines for sixteen generations here. Louis XIV of France once said: "This is the wine of kings and the king of all wines."

The King of Wines, the Tokoi wine region historic cultural landscape. 00:00:00
These are the vineyards of the Tokoi region of Hungary. 00:00:09
The region's wine producing tradition has been passed down from medieval times. 00:00:12
The underground cellars of Tokoi are an interconnected labyrinth of tunnels. 00:00:18
They have made la pourriture noble, noble rot wines for 16 generations here. 00:00:24
Louis XIV of France from his palace in Versailles once said, 00:00:34
this is the wine of kings and the king of all wines. 00:00:38
But why are noble rot wines produced in this region? 00:00:46
It's due to the fog. 00:00:51
Two rivers converge in the Tokoi region 00:00:54
and a thick blanket of fog covers the area during the autumn and winter months. 00:00:57
The damp holds the secret to producing these special grapes. 00:01:03
The bottom of this bunch of grapes is rotting. 00:01:09
The mold is caused by high humidity. 00:01:11
The rotten grapes are known in French as la pourriture noble. 00:01:14
The rotting process concentrates the sugar content and makes the grapes incredibly sweet. 00:01:18
The combination of moisture and sunshine creates just the right environment 00:01:27
to produce grapes of perfect sweetness. 00:01:31
The noble rot spreads to the whole bunch within two weeks. 00:01:35
The grapes are then ready for harvesting. 00:01:38
Ottoman Turks invaded the Tokoi region in the 17th century 00:01:43
when farmers returned to the villages. 00:01:46
Grapes that had gone unharvested were found shriveled and rotting. 00:01:48
Left without a choice, the farmers went on to produce wine from them 00:01:56
and what they came up with had astonishing flavor. 00:02:00
But the winemaking process also requires more time and skill to create the taste. 00:02:05
At least three to four years is needed. 00:02:10
A vintage wine can take several decades to mature. 00:02:14
The scale shows 80% humidity. 00:02:20
The ceiling and walls are covered with fungus, a sign that the cellar is nice and humid. 00:02:24
The wine is maturing perfectly. 00:02:30
