Campbells NV Isabella Rare Tokay (Rutherglen)

  • Cellar Selection
  1. $97
Top 100 Cellar Selections 2011 Score Chasers: NZ & AU 2011
Dark amber in color and going greenish at the rim, the basis of this wine is clearly old stocks going back well over 60 years. It’s full-bodied, unctuous and superrich, oozing with molasses and rancio character, but balanced by citrusy notes. The finish is incredibly sweet and long, coating the mouth with coffee-like essences that linger for minutes.  — J.C.  (2/1/2011)

R.L. Buller & Son NV Calliope Rare Tokay (Rutherglen)

  • Editors' Choice
  1. $86
Just a tiny serving of this dark nectar will last a long time. The malty, porter-ish aromas intrigue, followed by incredibly rich and syrupy flavors accompanied by mouthwatering acids and enormous peristence. Layers of complexity gradually unfold in the glass, revealing hints of honey, caramel and beguiling rancio notes.  — J.C.  (12/15/2007)

Kracher 2008 Zwischen den Seen Nummer 9 Trockenbeerenauslese Welschriesling (Burgenland)

Opulent honey and lemon aromas waft from the glass in this superrich but so balanced wine. The acidity is an essential element, cutting through the sweet orange, honey and ginger flavors. A gorgeous wine.  — R.V.  (10/1/2011)

Kracher 2005 Zwischen den Steen Nummer 8 Trockenbeerenauslese Welschriesling (Burgenland)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $103
The intensity of the acidity, piercing through the sweetness, is what is astonishing about this wine. It gives the wine an ethereal quality, a lightness to go with the concentration of the dried fruits and orange zest flavors. The essence of TBA.  — R.V.  (3/1/2009)

A beautiful wine that is almost like nectar. It has extreme freshness, while the acidity is a wonderful contrast. Such concentrated orange flavors and a smooth texture while there is a great citrus edge.  — R.V.  (10/1/2011)

Kracher 2004 Zwischen den Seen Trockenbeerenauslese Nummer 10 Scheurebe (Neusiedlersee)

  • Cellar Selection
  1. $90
The most complex of Kracher’s 2004 TBAs, as well as the richest in residual sugar. It has mandarin orange, peaches and crystallized fruits. There is freshness, despite its sweetness. It should age magnificently.  — R.V.  (2/1/2007)

Campbells NV Isabella Rare Tokay (Rutherglen)

  • Editors' Choice
  1. $85
Campbells utilizes a modified solera system, so small portions of this blend are 60 or more years of age, imparting an incredibly elegant note of rancio. Luscious raisins and toffee bring intensely concentrated, sweet flavors, impeccably balanced. This is not in the immense blockbuster style, instead showing great harmony and purity, with all its pieces in nearly…  — J.C.  (12/15/2007)

Kracher 2005 Zwischen den Steen Nummer 9 Trockenbeerenauslese Scheurebe (Burgenland)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $103
As the Kracher wines gain in intensity, so they diminish in alcohol. The overwhelming richness is held in check by life-giving freshness. The fruit flavors are just a part of the wine, because the botrytis and density are just as important. The finish of honey lingers long.  — R.V.  (3/1/2009)
