Hungarian Tokajis were historically among the most highly prized wines in the world. Long before Sauternes, they graced the tables of European elites and connoisseurs. In the summer of 1991, the late Jean-Michael Arcaute and Jean-Louis Laborde launched the Renaissance of Tokaji. They led a group of 12 wine lovers and acquired ChΓ’teau Pajzos, carrying out the same year the first βprivate enterpriseβ harvest and vinification.Β Today, the 100ha Domaine (55ha of vineyards) is under the sole ownership of the Laborde family, who also owns ChΓ’teau Clinet in Pomerol.
