Disznoko Tokaji 1413 Szamorodni Edes 2018
$65.00This traditional style of sweet wine has been produced in Tokaj for centuries, and 1413 is the year the Disznókő vineyard was first mentioned in a land register. The name Szamorodni comes from the Polish meaning ‘as it comes’ or ‘the way it was grown’, and so the bunches come as they are from vineyard to cellar. […]

Disznoko Tokaji Late Harvest Furmint 2019
$45.00László Mészáros makes this late harvest wine from mainly botrytised Furmint grapes (along with 6% Zéta and 6% Hárslevelu), which have shrivelled to around half of their original volume. Termed Késói Szüretelésú in Hungarian, there was no berry-by-berry selection here as there is for Aszú wines. Instead, selected bunches of botrytised clusters and part-clusters were […]

Fritz Haag Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese 2020
$80.00Out of Stock
One of the great Spatlese vineyards, this is richer, deeper and more exotic than the cooler Juffer. Ripe fruits of paw paw, apricot, yellow peach lime, white flowers, and dried herbs. Super fine palate, slender and tender, but with waves of decadent fruit. Woven acidity that is always present, but plays a support act to […]

Akutain Cosecha Rioja 2019
$40.00Aged in neutral oak, this is brimming with bright fruit, but you can still see some tertiary notes, denoting traditional Rioja. Fruit driven and medium bodied with blackberry, plum, raspberry, tobacco, aniseed and cut flowers. The fruit is sweet and tangy, buoyed by sandy, grippy tannins and mouthwatering acidity. An absolute delight to drink. One […]

Disznoko Tokaji Aszu 6 Puttonyos 2016 (500ml)
$200.00This golden-colored Tokaji has aromas of raw honey, apricot blossom, pear and baked apple tart. Silky smooth upon entry, it offers flavors of baked apples, wildflower honey, canned pears and apricot. The acidity is nicely balanced so as not to be too cloyingly sweet. 97 points, Jeff Jenssen, Wine Enthusiast

Disznoko Tokaji Aszu 5 Puttonyos 2012
$125.00Out of Stock
Straw-colored with gold reflections, this wine offers aromas of apricot, peach and pear. In the mouth, flavors include honeycomb, Bartlett pear and canned peaches. It finishes with sweetness that is balanced by the ample acidity. 95 points, Jeff Jenssen, Wine Enthusiast Although nowadays the puttonyos number corresponds to a minimum amount of residual sugar […]

Fritz Haag Brauneberger Juffer Riesling Spätlese 2020
$60.00From the upper storeys ,and therefore cooler, of the Brauneberger Juffer. Fine and tense palate with gorgeous stone and citrus fruits, gardenia and bergamot.

Tokaji Oremus Late Harvest 2019
$68.00Out of Stock
Late harvest usually usually implies a desert wine, which is true in this case. However, similar to a German Spatlese riesling, you could match this with richer savoury dishes too. Fermented slowly, through late Autumn and into winter, stopping naturally when the winery is covered in snow and is too cold to carry on. Star […]

Peter Lauer Ayler Riesling Fass 6 Senior 2020
$55.00A richer feinherb than most of us would, with greater depth and texture than most of us would be used to. Medium to full bodied, rippling with juicy ripe fruits, saltbush, mint and lemon preserve. Just off-dry, the depth of the palate is offset by subtle sweetness and the Saar’s rapier acidity. Remarkable wine. Waters […]

Condado De Haza Ribera del Duero Crianza 2018
$50.00Perhaps a little less plush than than the Pesquera Crianza’s, with more earth and ferrous notes. It’s not rustic, a little less fine perhaps, but I love it’s burliness. Spice laden, dark fruits, some crunchy red ones too, lavender wood, smoke and bay leaf. Presence of chew, the tannins a rougher velvet and a vibrancy […]

Very complex flavours and texture with preserved lime, honey, ginger, orange zest, yellow peach, jasmine and caramelised hazelnut. Luscious and creamy with a gorgeous fluffy texture, closing […]

Tokaji Oremus Mandolas Dry Furmint 2019
$55.00Aged in small traditional 136 litre barrels and picked golden ripe, I cannot think of any wine that is full bodied yet so abundantly fresh, tangy and full zingy drive. Citrus and stone fruits, cherry, plum, marzipan, beeswax, cinnamon, creamy apple and salty minerality. Very broad, yet precise flavours and a terrific match for roast […]

Luciano Sandrone Barolo Aleste 2017
$295.00Considering some of the casks spent up to 2 months on skins, this is remarkably pure with extremely fine tannins. Compelling aromas of cassis, tar, cherry cola, leather polish, nutmeg, liquorice, cigar box, roses, cherry and violet. Tighter than the Le Vigne, and I prefer this in 2017, although usually Le Vigne gets my nod. […]
