Quinta Do Vesuvio Vintage Port 2010
$125.00A combination of Tinta Barroca ( 25%) and Touriga Nacional ( 75%) only, this is an extremely impressive wine with a magnificent, dark, brooding colour. A classic nose of liquorice and chocolate and a rich palate, with dark cherry fruit, pepper and a finely tapered finish.

Disznoko Tokaji Aszu 5 Puttonyos 2012
$125.00Straw-colored with gold reflections, this wine offers aromas of apricot, peach and pear. In the mouth, flavors include honeycomb, Bartlett pear and canned peaches.

Disznoko Aszu Eszencia 2005
$270.00Aromas of citrus blossom, dried apricot and fresh fig transfer to the palate, where notes of freshly brewed coffee and toffee round out the complex flavor. This wine has lovely mouthfeel, with roundness on the palate and just the right amount of acidity to prevent this caramel-colored Eszencia from being too cloying. 97 points, Jeff […]

Fritz Haag Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr Auslese Gold Capsule 2019
$172.00A beauty close to perfection. It displays intense, perfectly ripe, healthy and refined raisin fruit on the nose along with tropical hints, herbal notes and dashes of lemon juice, while the stony/mineral expressions remain rather in the background but still add excitement and distinction. On the palate, this is an incredibly juicy, piquant, refined, salty […]

JJ Prum Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Auslese GOLDKAPSEL 2016
$205.00Slightly closed on the nose. Full, open palate. Juicy, lime, kiwifruit and spice. Luscious and full of energy. Waters Wine ’18. What a fantastic bouquet! The 2016 Graacher Himmelreich Auslese Gold Capsule is super deep, intense and precise on the nose where flinty/stony notes and very fine (and slightly spicy) raisin and grapefruit aromas are […]

Dagueneau Jurancon Les Jardins de Babylone Moelleux 2016
$385.00The 2016 is equally stunning but far more youthful and therefore, more delicate and discrete than the 2015. It’s a vibrantly racy wine with mixed citrus and fresh-cut apple notes and a juicy, vibrant close. Both vintages are Germanic in style, less so dessert wines but more for drinking throughout the meal (the way you […]

Quinta Do Noval Vintage Port 2014
$148.00Only in Port country is it considered eccentric to release a wine from a very good vintage! Quinta do Noval continue to follow the path less travelled with this small-batch declaration from 2014, becoming the only house (to our knowledge) to release a Vintage Port from this year. ‘The fundamental principle for us,’ explains Christian […]

Carl Loewen Riesling Maximin Herrenberg Auslese Goldcap 2020
$100.00As close to perfection as you could possibly hope for. Refined, bracing Auslsen, obviously sweet, but it’s the acidity and the ‘coolness’ that’s astonishing. Elements of green snake (the lolly!), spearmint, white peach, lime, cumquat and lychee, cut through by passionfruit. Most Goldcaps are more obviously sweet and silken in texture, but the chisel here […]

Clemens Busch Marienburg Spatlese Goldcap 2020
$120.00Tons of floral honey, ripe grapefruit and candied ginger make this concentrated and succulent riesling Spätlese really stand out of the crowd in this field. So much candied citrus on the rich yet cool and refined palate. The finish is both lush and very mineral. From biodynamically grown grapes with Respekt certification. Drink or hold. […]

Didier Dagueneau Jurancon Les Jardins de Babylone Moelleux 2015
$375.00The 2015 Les Jardins de Babylone is simply outstanding; layered and pulpy with ripe stone fruit shot through with crystalline grapefruit and orange rind freshness. Deep and yet somehow delicate and fresh, it is both a wine that will live for decades but a wonderful drink now! A release that easily justifies the claim, often […]

Quinta Do Vesuvio Vintage Port 2013
$125.00It’s an intense wine, with floral notes and blackcurrant/cassis and a powerful and attractive aroma resulting from the predominance of Touriga Nacional, combined with Alicante Bouschet. The presence of Touriga Franca and Sousão adds complexity and spices. This Vesuvius is full-bodied, with long, firm tannins and a powerful palate. It will age beautifully for decades. […]
