Château La Varière, Bonnezeaux Les Melleresses, - 50cl 2009
The Château La Varière Bonnezeaux Les Melleresses boasts a beautifully ripe and concentrated nose, intertwining aromas of citrus, tropical fruits, and sweet spices. On the palate, it offers remarkable richness and harmony, with a luscious, weighty texture and a youthful restraint that promises great aging potential. Flavours of candied peel, dried apricot, and quince take center stage, balanced by a vibrant and refreshing acidity that offsets its sweetness. Deliciously indulgent now, this wine will continue to evolve, offering even greater complexity and enjoyment in the years to come.
Clemens Busch, Marienburg Auslese Riesling 2023
The Marienburg vineyard sits in the Mosel, with steep, south-facing slopes that maximise sunlight in a cool climate. Its blue and grey slate soils store heat and reflect it back to the vines, allowing grapes to ripen slowly while preserving the region’s signature acidity and mineral tension. An Auslese is made from individually selected, very ripe bunches, often with a touch of noble botrytis. This careful hand-harvesting concentrates flavour and sweetness, while Mosel’s cool conditions keep the wine fresh and precise — resulting in a sweet Riesling that is rich yet beautifully balanced, with vivid fruit, lift and crystalline clarity.
