Eszencia (2013)
Think of the most expensive watch, the most exotic trip, the biggest life experience you may come across. The Eszencia is one of these luxuries, bottled in a half-litre package. Like a time-machine from the 18th century to the 21st, every sip of this iconic wine transports you to an era when this nectar was only consumed in spoonfuls, instead of glasses - that’s how rare it was. A wine which Greek merchants based in Hungary exported to every corner of this planet, this desirable wine is now very much a product of its day. We wouldn’t accuse you if you couldn’t bring yourself to open it - after all, the Eszencia is at the top of the list of wine collectors and they can be found at wine auctions. But just admit it: wouldn’t you be tempted to sneak a taste of our Icon?
