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 […]

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.

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.

Seehof Morstein Riesling Beerenauslese 2017 (375ml)
$90.00It is difficult to describe, in decent terms, my salivation over a wine that is not only fabulous, but in relative terms, a ridiculous bargain. Extremely complex, yellow fruits, fresh citrus and preserved citrus. Lucid and creamy, the fruit pillowed if you like by soft, long acidity. Considering this is from Morstein, this is so […]

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 […]

Carl Loewen Riesling Ritsch Auslese 2019
$75.00Remarkably complex nose of yellow fruits, mango, starfruit, lime marmalade, peach and pear. Truthfully, this is very hard to describe, due to the level of complexity and detail, but I’ll try! Luscious and piquant, with ripe tropical fruits, cut through with citrus, cherry, honey and a faint dusting of herbs. Refined and detailed, the sweetness […]

Fritz Haag Brauneberger Juffer Riesling Auslese 2021
$88.00A great year for connoisseurs who favour cooler racier Ausleses. Indeed the Juffer and Juffer Sonnenuhr are better suited to savoury dishes over desserts. Bright and clear, with fresh mint, plum, lime, lemon zest and tropical notes. Linear and precise, with great purity and drive. Sleek, with a hint of tempering silk. Needs time. Give […]

Weiser-Kunstler Gaispfad “Grosse Eule” Riesling 2021
$100.00The 2020er Ellergrub, as it is referred to on the consumer label (the reference to Grosse Eule is left for the back label), has a restrained yet beautiful nose of minty herbs, thyme, yellow flowers, smoke, lozenge, spices, and blackberry. The wine proves slightly juicy and creamy on the mid-palate, yet there is quite some […]

Fritz Haag Brauneberger Juffer Riesling Spätlese 2021
$65.00Bright, intense and tingling with tang. Incredible focus of citrus, stone, orchard and tropical fruit. Fresh herbs from the garden, mint, marjoram and tarragon, mingled with jasmine. Incredible depth and power, the flavours layered and being so bright, bordering on hedonistic. Pure, clear, ethereal and elegant, brimming with energy, character and driving power. Remarkable wine, […]

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 […]

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. […]

$125.00A late ripening year with an ‘Aszú miracle’ appearing from mid-September onwards, giving beautifully concentrated Aszú berries with intense botrytis but also great acidity. It’s still a real baby, showing creamy vanilla aromas with ripe pear, acacia and peach. It’s luscious and silky with lovely purity and superb intensity of quince and honey, and fine […]
