Vermouth, Non Vintage
Antica Formula - Francesco Cinzano
This striking bottle of Cinzano Antica Formula dates from the 1960s–1970s, a period when Cinzano was proudly showcasing its deep historical roots. The parchment-style label, adorned with ornate scrolls, coats of arms, and the red wax capsule, evokes an old-world apothecary aesthetic, mirroring Carpano’s own heritage style. The bold “Antica Formula” title links it directly to Cinzano’s earliest vermouth recipes, originally created in 1757 by Giovanni Giacomo and Carlo Stefano Cinzano in Turin.
By the 1960s, vermouth was at the height of its popularity across Europe and beyond, embraced both as an aperitivo and a cocktail essential. …

Chateau d'Yquem, 2002
Sauternes 1er Cru Classe - Half Bottle
Chateau d`Yquem is often described as the greatest sweet wine in the world. After centuries of family ownership, Yquem was finally sold in acrimonious circumstances to Louis Vuitton-Moët-Hennessy in 1999. However, its former owner and director Alexandre de Lur-Saluce remains in charge. Yquem is located on the highest hill in Sauternes and enjoys the best growing conditions in the whole appellation. The 110-hectare vineyard is planted with 80% Sémillon and 20% Sauvignon Blanc. Only fully botrytized fruit is picked by the 150 highly skilled pickers and yields are so low that each vine produces only one glass of wine. …

Chateau d'Yquem, 2000
Sauternes 1er Cru Classe
Only 25,000 bottles of Yquem were made in this very tough Sauternes vintage. A truly valiant effort from this fine property.
"The millennial 2000 Chateau d’Yquem is a valiant effort in one of the most challenging Sauternes vintages in recent memory. The 2000 is quite deep in colour. The nose is crisp and well-defined but not the most complex, as you would expect from a truly challenging growing season in Sauternes. It is pleasant in its own way with delicate scents of tangerine, yellow flowers and Mirabelle. The palate is well-balanced with marmalade tinged opening. I like the acidity here, an Yquem with good race, although it does feel a little tapered toward the finish. …

Chateau Lamothe Guignard, 1996
Sauternes
The 1996 Château Lamothe-Guignard from Sauternes is a beautiful representation of a classic sweet Bordeaux, known for its balance of sweetness, acidity, and rich flavors. This vintage saw favorable weather conditions that allowed for the development of noble rot (Botrytis cinerea), essential for creating the complex, honeyed character that Sauternes wines are celebrated for.
In the glass, this 1996 Lamothe-Guignard shows a rich golden hue, which has deepened over the years. On the nose, it opens with aromas of ripe apricot, honey, and tropical fruit, layered with notes of vanilla, almond, and a hint of spice. …

Elderton, 1996
Golden Semillon
Colour:
Deep golden amber from both botrytis/late-harvest richness and age.
Nose:
Ripe, sweet aromas of melted butter, tangerine, orange liqueur, honey, and candied citrus with hints of marmalade and apricot. Exceptional purity with a rich, luscious perfume.
Palate:
Sweet and unctuous, with thick fruit and sweetness balanced by vibrant acidity — marmalade, honeyed citrus, dried pear and apricot flavours. The acidity prevents the wine from being cloying and gives it structure even in maturity.
Finish:
Long, juicy and perfumed, with lingering marmalade and candied citrus notes.

Old Penola Estate, 1996
Gewurztraminer Botrytis
Produced by Old Penola Estate in Coonawarra, South Australia, this 1996 Gewurztraminer was made in a botrytised dessert-wine style, an uncommon expression for the region better known for Cabernet Sauvignon. Sourced from cool-climate vineyards, it reflects a small-production, experimental approach typical of boutique Coonawarra producers in the 1990s. A rare surviving example of mature Australian botrytis wine.
Deep golden amber in colour. Intensely aromatic, showing classic Gewurztraminer notes of lychee, rose petal and spice, layered with botrytis-driven honey, marmalade and dried apricot. …

Tokaji, 1993
Tokaji Royal Aszu Essencia
(Half litre, 50cl), Hungary
Situated along the southern slopes of the Zemplén Mountains, Tokaj is characterized by late springs and short growing seasons. The average temperatures are generally cool, with long, sunny summers and dry autumns. Tokaj’s soil is largely clay or loess with a volcanic substratum; vines are approximately 20 years old. The meeting of the Tisza and Bodrog rivers in Tokaj creates a mist similar to that of the fog in Sauternes. The mist encourages “botrytis cinerea,” or “noble rot,” which dries and shrivels the Furmint, Hárslevelü and Muscat grape varieties that comprise Tokaji wines, and concentrates the sugars. …

Tasting Notes:
Betsek Vineyard: This wine exhibits a bright orange-gold color with a complex nose of smoke, honey, dates, and dried apricots.

Vouvray, 1989
Le Haut-Lieu, Moelleux, Premiere Trie, Domaine Huet, Loire, Domaine Gaston Huet

Nobly elegant and perfectly balanced raisin fruit with precise aromas of dried apricots and ripe peaches intertwined with subtly spicy, mineral and chalky notes on the nose.

Vouvray, 1988
Domaine Huet Vouvray Clos du Bourg Moelleux
Domain Huet is one of the top producers of this fabulous sweet wine. The 1988 displays a brilliantly intense and very aromatic, quite floral, Gewurztraminer-like bouquet of ripe fruits (white fleshed stone fruits, apricots, quince confiture), rose petals, spicy and some stony flavors; it shows up very precise and complex and much younger than you might expect from a 30+ year old Chenin. Rich, intense, fresh, powerful and just slightly sweet on the palate due to the vibrant acidity and the tight and grippy tannins, this very mineral Chenin reveals a great tension and a compact, persistent and slightly drying finish, but a lingering salinity. …

Chateau d'Yquem, 1982
Sauternes 1er Grand Cru Classe
Sweet White Wine
Yquem is indisputedly the best wine in Sauternes and may well be the finest sweet wine in the world.
92 Points, Neal Martin, The Wine Advocate, 26th Jun 2014
Served from an ex-chateau bottle. Sauternes only produced two exceptional wines in 1982: Suduiraut and Yquem. Although I have encountered the 1982 Chateau d’Yquem on three occasions, this is the finest bottle. It was an early vintage, physiological ripeness reached on September 16. Rainfall interrupted the harvest that really could not start in earnest until November 2, for just four days. It has a lucid amber color, and a fully mature bouquet with mandarin and marmalade aromas that are pure and well-delineated. …

Recioto, 1974
Valpantena, Sweet Red Wine
"Recioto," as in "Recioto della Valpolicella," refers to a dessert wine made from grapes that were dried on mats after picking. This process turns the grapes closer to raisins, concentrating the flavors. The wines are lovely and taste how you'd expect raisins-turned-wine to taste, rich and sweet.

Szamarodni - Monimpex (Half Litre, 50cl)
Hungary’s most famous dessert wine is Tokaji the legendary sweet elixir. It can only be spoken in the superlative about this wine, as it is a medicine, a real nectar. The name Tokaji (which is of Protected Designation of Origin) is used for labeling wines from this wine district. The location of the region has a unique climate, beneficial to this particular viniculture, due to the protection of the nearby mountains, long warm autumns and mists that come in from the River Bodrog, creating perfect conditions for noble rot. Creating the botrytised ('aszú') grapes for which the region is famous. A wonderful sweet wine from this renowned producer. …

Chateau Climens, 1969
1er Cru Classe Barsac
The 1969 Château Climens is a compelling example of Barsac's Premier Cru Classé, offering insight into the estate's resilience during a less heralded vintage. Despite the challenges of the 1969 harvest, this wine showcases Climens' dedication to quality and its unique terroir.
In the glass, the 1969 Climens presents a deep amber hue, indicative of its age and the oxidative development characteristic of mature Sauternes. The nose reveals aromas of Satsuma, apricot, and a touch of brown sugar, suggesting a wine that has retained its vibrancy over time. On the palate, it offers citrus freshness with notes of dried peaches and apricot, culminating in a tangy finish. …

*** 99/100 Points -Lisa Perrotti-Brown for the Wine Advocate, 30th Aug 2019 ***
Displaying a gorgeous deep amber-gold color, the 1967 d'Yquem slips sensuously out of the glass with a profound perfume of dried mandarin peel, allspice, praline, cinnamon toast and orange blossoms plus hints of gingerbread and accents of lemon butter. The palate is simply electric with citrus and spice-sparked energy, delivering youthfully vibrant notes with a tantalizing floral undercurrent. Superb freshness knit inseparably with the complex sweetness makes this seem like a deceptively delicate, …
