With the Edition Bee, Timo Dienhart and Andreas Thran want to make their mark in the field of top Rieslings from the Mosel. Pure pleasure from outstanding steep-slope Riesling, organic cultivation and, to top it all, active protection of creation – making their vineyards a refuge for bees. The idea was born in the unique location of “Honigberg”, the Honey Mountain, when, while walking through the especially greened vineyards, they noticed the buzzing of the bees underneath the heavily laden vines.
This Riesling Trocken is a classic, fresh Riesling with elegant fragrance and a great balance between sweetness and acidity.

Disznókö is one of the most famous producers of sweet Tokaji in the world.
The estate owns only one large vineyard of about 250 acres, classified in 1772 and planted only with local indigenous grape, in particular Furmint. These wines are considered among the best sweet wines in the world, classified in puttonyos according to their residual sugar levels that express at their best the Hungarian tradition and terroir.
1413 is the year the Disznókő vineyard was first mentioned in a land register. So an apt name for this modern interpretation of Édes (sweet) Szamorodni, a traditional Tokaji wine. The name comes from the Polish meaning “as it comes”: the bunches come as they are from vineyard to cellar. The grapes are not selected one by one (harvesting method for making Aszú wines), but picked in whole bunches with many shrivelled and botrytised grapes.

”The wines of 2010 remind me of walking down into a Tokaj cellar after a hot day out in the vineyard. A refreshing vintage with vivacious, almost cool acidity and wonderful aromas!” – László Mészáros

Nestled on the heights of the village of Montagnac, a few kilometers from the historic town of Pézénas, the Domaine de la Clapière is ideally located in the Languedoc region, thanks to its Mediterranean coast, its wild and authentic landscapes and its exceptionally mild climate.
The history of the estate dates back to the Gallo-Roman era, located as it was on the Via Domitia, the Roman road linking Italy to Spain, where there is already a vineyard.
A few centuries later, the place will become a famous and welcoming relay for the pilgrims of the Routes of Compostela. And that is ultimately at the XVII th century that the Domain Clapière find his name under the influence of Francis Clapier, wealthy merchant and owner of the time. Since 2006, the estate is operated and inhabited by Sophie and Xavier who make this heritage live with the help of a great team. And if a new page made of enthusiasm and modernity is written for the field, history is never far.
Sweet and aromatic on its citrus notes, Figuerette proudly expresses the race of the Côtes des Blancs nearby: Chardonnay takes the power; Viognier draws elegance and vinification, half-tank, half-barrel gives it this persistent balance.
