The character of the winemaking method does not win here, something for which orange wines are often blamed, saying that they have a uniform style regardless of their origin. Eastern Accents is a completely natural wine produced by Anna Maria Reka.Koncz with minimal sulfites ranging between 15mg/l. The wine is vinified in plastic glass tanks and relies on...
A blend of four different varieties that, with the exception of Furmint which makes up 60% of the wine, you have probably never heard of in your life. The winemaking for the Furmint that comes from Tokaj is done separately while the other three varieties from field blend vineyards are blended. Furmint is left in contact with its skins for 15 days. Wood...
Annamaria uses grapes from both the region she grew up in, that of Barabas, and from the village of Mad in Tokaj, where she buys from an organic grape producer, the famous Furmint. Robin is one of the producer's own favourite wines and as with all her wines everything is done manually and without the use of equipment. Even the removal of sediment from the...
Mad the village, Disorder the name of the wine, Annamaria carries the "madness" of her youth and never stops creating wines that are exciting and outside the norm. It may be that the "humble" non-denomination of origin 100% Furmint she produces cannot have the name of the variety on the label, as the law only allows it for wines of Hungarian origin, but...
Deiss himself describes it as an "iron fist" wrapped in a velvet glove to describe this combination of tannic power of Gruenspiel's lands and dense fruit, all culminating in a huge long finish. A wine that insistently demands food. Dry, tannic, firm yet dense at the same time with great extract. The wine evolves in a surprising way as it ages, with the...
A field blend vineyard with Riesling varieties, the different Pinots of Alsace and some Muscat and Chasselas. Organic and biodynamic farming as in all 26 hectares of Deiss vineyards with an also old-school approach to winemaking, a reference to Alsace's past. Pressing of blended grapes with whole bunches, spontaneous fermentation and maturation for 12...
Its name means the cradle of the fairies and is borrowed from the forest bordering the young vines of the Domaine aux Moines estate. The vines are grown organically and with biodynamic practices and the wine is produced with a perfectly gentle natural vinification, with indigenous yeasts and no added sulphites. The wine is vinified and matured in...

A wine from a continuous vineyard of twenty acres of dense planting, cultivated with mild techniques and with very low yields (only 4 to 5 bunches) per plant. Fermentation starts in stainless steel tanks and during the fermentation the wine is decanted into foudres and 500l demi-muids. Maturation takes place for 10 months in contact with fine lees and the...
From the steep slopes of the Pfersigberg and the fossil-rich limestone soils, the Riesling manages to combine amazing levels of ripeness and juicy character, with intense minerality and refreshing acidity. Citrus aromas, juicy white-fleshed fruit, honey and smoky mineral character lead to a rich, honeyed mouthfeel, with spicy notes and a persistent...
This particular Haute Densité, high density planting piece, is a small part of the 1er Cru vineyard "Derriere Chez Edouard" at its steepest and steepest point. So steep and densely planted that everything is done by hand. Scary when you consider the work required, as it's not just planting densities but Olivier applies all his vine-related "craziness"...
The name given to it is a reminder of the difficulty that the fruit and the vine face in the conditions of the year. The bunches selected for this micro-pressing were traditionally pressed by foot and then pressed in a vertical wooden press. In this process the must was in prolonged contact with oxygen which is reflected in the oxidative colour of the...
