We have sourced them from some of our clients' private cellars, our friends in Europe, direct from the domaine or through our other trusted networks. On each product you will note an estimated time of arrival. Understand that these are only estimates, and to ensure that your wine arrives safely it may be longer. Utilizing this method allows us to offer some amazing wines and gives you the opportunity to secure them earlier. Upon arrival at TWC you will receive a notification and we will ship the wines to you.

From the Pergentsknopp, the 2019 Scharzhofberger P Riesling GG opens very intense and flinty on the lemon-scented nose, and it is even more straight and challenging than the generic Scharzhofberger, with lemon leaf aromas and vulnerable stony aromas of wet crushed slate and quartzite. Piquant and fresh on the palate, this is a lean, tight, dry, grippy and persistently salty but also dense and juicy Pergentsknopp that lacks a couple of years of bottle age to shine fully bright, but this is melting pot with loads of perfectly ripe Riesling grapes. The acidity is fresh and piquant yet ripe, and the textural composition is still more edgy and rough compared to the generic Scharzhofberger. However, this makes the 2019 a tight and tensioned, very fresh and even juicy "P" whose true potential will be revealed only in 5-10 years from now. The finish, however, is spectacularly long, refined, juicy and very intense. To buy or not to buy? Certainly yes, if you have the right storage capacity. However, I'd buy the generic "Scharz" as well, and drink it first. Tasted from AP 21 20 in March 2021.

The 2019 Riesling Scharzhofberger Pergentsknopp Grosses Gewächs is hauntingly herbal and floral as well as mouthwateringly suggestive of sea breeze and marine creatures. There is a custardy sense of textural richness here that is more in keeping with typical vintage character than are the firmer feels of other Van Volxem 2019 Grosse Gewächse that I tasted alongside. Yet there is also a delightful sense of buoyancy more familiar from the estate’s 2020s. Marjoram and moss lend smoky herbal accents, while crab and oyster innards trigger the salivary glands on a penetratingly persistent, vibrant finish enlivened and lent refreshment by lime and grapefruit.
