Funkyness: Mild

Tasting Notes: The naturally low-acidity of Aspro Potamisi might trouble those used to sharper, chiseled whites from Greece, from varieties like Assyrtiko for example. Yet these very ripe grapes produced an original wine of smooth exotic aromas, the iodine finish and the puzzling bitterness adding complexity and contributing to create an "umami" wine, a characteristic emphasized by what could be perceived as a real "memory of sugar", an impression of native sweetness conveyed by the sun-roasted, rich old-vine Potamisi whose sugars were nonetheless almost totally reduced by its indigenous yeasts.

Tasting Notes:  This Grüner Veltliner is an other masterpiece from Mathias Warnung. It is incredibly profound and complex, yet it is so lively and youthful that you would never conclude that it is so mature. The oxidative ageing can be felt discreetly, but it expresses itself more with wax, pear and spicy aromas. The structure is vibrant, salty and intense, there is dense grip and also power, plus youthful freshness and terrific tension.

The tannins preserved due to the long maceration give an extra dimension to the wine in the mouth. Nice also the acidity that accompanies the wine in its long finish

Tasting Notes: After settling in the family barn belonging to his great-uncle, a farmer, Jérôme François created Uncle Charles' barn. The estate was thus born in early 2014 in Ostheim. No less than a dozen grape varieties to express, beyond the diversity of their character, the true identity of the terroir that gives them life: a rare Alsace white, with a complexity and minerality that appeals to wine lovers.

Tasting Notes: In the glass, it wows us with a deep, bright amber color, which is mainly due to the Pinot Noir extract. The consistency is dense. The nose is intense, reminiscent of dried fruit, where apple slices, dried apricots, quince, pineapple slices and papaya stand out. Candied citrus starts to open up with time; orange peel, lemon and then red grapefruit. Thyme introduces dried Mediterranean herbs, with wild mint and sage. Hay blends nicely with aromas of dried yellow flowers and black tea. Pine resin and graphite in between. Overall, well emphasized with caramel wood aromas, star anise, vanilla and licorice.
