Maurer - Karom 2020 Serbia, Fruška Gora Blend of Bakator, Mézes Fehér (Medenac Beli) and Szerémi Zöld (Sremska Zelenika). Forgotten Central European gems saved by Oszkar Maurer, guardian of native grape varieties. With a short maceration of three days this is a rich and exhilarating white wine. Straw yellow in colour, slightly misty with pronounced aroma’s of green apple, pineapple, citrus fruit and fresh peaches. Giving it some time in the glass it shows spicy and resinous tones supported by a dry, flinty charge. Ripe pear, passion fruit and notes of nutmeg with cedar. 11 lunar phases in old oak barrels left a tender mark on this wine. The epilogue is savory, with gentle fresh acidity and almond spice cake in the background. >> more info about the grape varieties on our website. link in bio << #wine #wineshop #naturalwine #serbianwine #hungarianwine #instawine #winelover #gogoodwine #winelife #terroir #oszkarmaurer #vinnaturel #fruskagora #winetasting #maurerwinery #craftwine #amsterdamwineshop #wineshopamsterdam #amsterdam

™ Domaine Des Marnes Blanches Côtes Du Jura Trousseau 2018 France, Jura In the fresh red wine range, Jura, located between the Bourgogne and Switzerland, has a lot to offer to curious wine drinkers. Knowing that 2018 was a warm vintage, its pale colour reflects the gentle extraction, but the wine has quite some weight and grip. To some extent foggy in the glass, this outstanding red Jura hits the nose with brisk, fresh raspberry and pomegranate aromas, as light herbs and eucalyptus cut through the haze. There's an earthy, gravel-like grasp on the palate and fragrant aromas of violets, with blue- and black fruit adding complexity. Aromatic bouquet with rich texture, remarkably counterbalanced by fine minerality and resolute tannic structure reveal a great gastronomic wine that will combine perfectly with flavoursome dishes. Raclette, Comté cheese, game or mushroom pâtés and terrines, Morel Mushroom, Pork Sausage, Steak Tartare, Basque-style Tuna and Paella with Saffron and Smoked Paprika. #craftwine #naturalwine #DesMarnesBlanches #jurawine #jura #instawine #wineporn #frenchwine #amsterdamwineshop #wineshopamsterdam #amsterdam #wine #winestagram #amsterdamwine

™ Kristinus – Liquid SunDowner 2020 Hungary, Lake Balaton Sophisticated, layered and juicy orange wine made from Chardonnay, Pinot Gris, Olaszrizling (Welschriesling) and Tramini (Gewürztraminer). Grapes were fermented on the skin and aged on fine lees for 6 months in a combination of amphoras and oak barrels. You will be greeted with notes of juicy peaches, delicate white flowers and a fresh citrus whiff, encompassed with herbal braid of fennel, lavender and eucalyptus. The attack is friendly but firm and spicy, in the que: mandarin, orange zest, fresh stone fruit and traces of passion fruit. Finish is long, silky and smooth, very generous and focused. #orangewine #winetasting #hungarianwine #instawine #winelover #naturalwine #craftwine #amsterdamwineshop #wineshopamsterdam #instawine #gogoodwine #craftwine #winelife #authenticwine #terroir #wine #amberwine #biodynamicwine #kristinus #gewürztraminer #welschriesling #chardonnay #pinotgris #balaton

In Sancerre, the eastern part of the Loire valley, Sébastien Riffault makes one of the best Sauvignon Blanc wines by far. His traditional, low intervention approach, late harvest in combination with noble rot that most of sancerre wine makers condemned, results in a wine with a truly unique profile. The Akmèniné 2017 is a pure exploration of flavours. Aromatic, complex with notes of yellow apple, lime, pear and a light hint of caramel. It has a faint oxidative touch alongside a beautiful salty minerality. You would expect that its delightful color and great concentration is due to skin contact but Akmèniné is direct press wine - no skin contact. Magic happens in late summer, beginning of autumn when fungus Botrytis Cinerea infects the grape berries. Degradation of the wax layer on the grape skin creates small holes from which water escapes. The grape shrivels to about half its weight, resulting in a higher concentration of acids and sugars. Wine made of this grape will carry clearly noticeable notes of soft stone fruit, orange, honey, tea and christmas spices. Skill determines the right moment to harvest, waiting too long can destroy crops leaving you with a whole lot of rotten grapes. Work in the cellar is also risky, high sugar concentration will take much longer to ferment into dry wine, exposing the wine in the meantime to oxidation but not too much, otherwise the mighty juice could end up in vinegar instead of wine. Having all this in mind we can say that Sébastien mastered risk management. This wine is truly remarkable and uplifting. #craftwine #naturalwine #sebastienriffault #loirewine #sancerre #instawine #wineporn #amsterdamwineshop #wineshopamsterdam #amsterdam #wine #winestagram #amsterdamwine

Orion 2020 Serbia, Fruska Gora, Sremski Karlovci New vintage and new expression of Mezes Feher (Medenac Beli) grape by Oszkar Maurer Now blended and exalted with Riesling from the vineyard Veliki Karas next to the Danube river. Actually the vineyard we know from Totem 2017. Skin contact of 21 days and aging in old oak barrels. Deep orange color with golden hue and mysteriously fumy. Aroma dominated with apricot, dry fruits and traces of quince. After some time in the glass the wine will release a floral, hay and acacia honey resonance. Emerging pine resin in combination with salted caramel and candied orange zest creates an irresistible flavour wedlock. Bright, lively acidity with silky tannins that glide across the palate, frame this unique wine as one of the Wabi Sabi wonders. This time Orion is dangerously close to his prey. #wine #wineshop #naturalwine #serbianwine #hungarianwine #instawine #winelover #gogoodwine #winelife #terroir #oszkarmaurer #orangewine #amberwine #vinnaturel #fruskagora #winetasting #maurerwinery #nobelrot #craftwine #amsterdamwineshop #wineshopamsterdam #amsterdam
