  • 2019 Vintage Brut, Chateau Dereszla Champagne & Sparkling Wine

    2019 Vintage Brut, Chateau Dereszla

    £2150

    This Tokaji Vintage Brut is made in the traditional Champagne way and is an elegant white sparkling wine, created from a blend of typical Hungarian varieties – Furmint and Harslevelu.

    The average age of vines growing on loess soils is 35 years. Harvested by hand, after sorting, passing through a press and primary vinification, the wine is subjected to secondary fermentation in bottles according to the traditional method of producing sparkling wines. The wine is on the lees for 14 months.

    Situated in the heart of the Tokaj region, the origins of Chateau Dereszla can be traced back to the 18th century. The Estate owns 27 hectares spread across the designated “Grand Cru” area, and the large diversity of soils throughout these vineyard holdings is a crucial factor in the complexity of their wines. The historic cellars were fully renovated in 2003 and equipped with state-of-the-art winemaking technology.

  • 2000 Tokaji Aszu Eszencia ‘Imperium’, Chateau Dereszla, 375ml Wine Republic Heros Dessert Wine, Port & Dessert Wine

    2000 Tokaji Aszu Eszencia ‘Imperium’, Chateau Dereszla, 375ml

    £12000

    Château Dereszla is world-renowned for its sweet wines made from grapes affected by Botrytis cinerea, also known as “noble rot”. The wine is made from hand-picked grapes from Chateau Dereszla’s finest plots and made into a paste, which is then added to a base wine for fermentation for 14 days.  The wine is then aged in French oak for more than 2 years prior to bottling.  The elegant label replicates a design created by Carl Faberge for Dereszla’s centenary in 1907.

    This is a sensational Tokaji Aszu Eszencia from Dereszla.  Only produced in the very finest years, (made twice by Dereszla in the last 22 years), and now a defunct classification, this is a very rare slice of history in a bottle.  Incredibly sweet yet with perfectly poised acidity, the wine has a complex apricot and Seville orange marmalade fruit character mingled with spice and gingerbread notes. With an impressive 252 grams per litre of sugar, it is no wonder the wine is syrupy and very rich, but the constant freshness provided by the acidity keeps the wine balanced and makes it a wonderful match to dark chocolate desserts, good quality cheeseboards and rich pates.
