Elysium Black Muscat Quady (Half bottle) 2023
Quady Wines specialises in dessert wines and has built a worldwide reputation for producing elegant and expressive sweet wines. Founded by Andrew Quady, the winery’s expertise spans Portuguese varietals, Muscats, and inventive dessert wines. Vineyard The Black Muscat grapes are sourced from well-drained, alluvial soils in California. Originally destined for sacramental wine, these grapes were recognised for their exceptional ripeness and character. Winemaking The grapes are crushed, chilled, and macerated to extract delicate aromas and flavours. Fermentation is arrested with neutral grape brandy to preserve the fresh, ripe fruit character. The wine is then aged for three months in small French oak barrels, enhancing its aromatic complexity and texture. Tasting Notes Brilliant crimson-purple in colour, Elysium offers aromas of ripe berries, rose petals, strawberries, and lychee. Vibrant acidity balances the sweetness beautifully, making the wine refreshingly expressive and elegant. Food Pairing Perfect with desserts, fruit tarts, soft cheeses, or enjoyed on its own as a refreshing sweet wine.
Weingut Clemens Busch, Riesling Kabinett 2011
Clemens Busch crafts Riesling from the Mosel's steepest vineyards with a precision that makes other producers weep. This 2011 Kabinett comes from terraced sites so precipitous you'd need mountaineering gear to harvest them, and it shows in every sip. Fifteen years have turned what was once zippy youth into something altogether more serious. The fruit has retreated, leaving behind pure mineral expression and that famous Mosel tension that makes your mouth water before you've even swallowed. Drink until 2040 with anything that needs a sharp, clean counterpoint.
