Somlo Muscat Ottonel 1983

Wonderful old Muskat-Ottonel from Somló (Pieroth bottling). Golden with streaks of Amber; strong scents of candied pineapple, orange zest, mango (skin, flesh, and stone), with hints of pear brandy, marzipan, and honey blossom; well balanced sweetness and acidity but lacking a bit of a backbone (like a sweetish auslese). Still, it's keeping remarkably well. Will probably run for a few decades more before it starts diving! — 10 years ago

Fekete Pince Juhfark 2011

From an obscure, nearly extinct grape variety, Juhfark translated literally means "sheep's tail" so named because tightly clustered bunches have a distinctive curve at the tip. Found only in the Somló region of Hungary, this non-aromatic variety is typically aged in large oak barriques. Meyer lemon zest, cling peaches, chamomile, and white flowers round out the nose. It's a broad-shouldered white with a coursing vein of acidity, along with a mineral upwelling that showcases an ashy, volcanic soil type. Sample — 10 years ago

Nagy "A Nászéjszakák Bora" Somlói Juhfark

Selection Juhfark 2013

Juhfark from the Somló area of Balaton, this delightful floral white has nice acidity, honey on the nose and palate, good minerality -- reminds me of wet white marble. Reminiscent of an Italian Falanghina or Fiano. — 10 years ago
