Mönchhof (Monk’s House) is one of the oldest wine estates in the Mosel. It was formerly in the possession of the Kloster Himmerod, a Cisterian Abbey, and records exist dating it to 1177. Today the estate is run by the affable Robert Eymael Jr. and the holdings include superb sites in Ürziger Würzgarten, Erdener Treppchen, and Erdener Prälat. The 2010 vintage in the Mosel offers pure and truly refreshing wines that have firm acidity. They are simply delicious to drink in the spring.

Deliveries within the metropolitan Seattle area can be arranged for a fee, depending on the size of the delivery. Deliveries are made during business hours Monday through Friday, but cannot be time specific. An adult signature is required.
Shipping
Wines may be sold and delivered only to persons who are at least 21 years old. All wines are sold in Washington and title passes to the buyer in Washington. We make no representation to the legal rights of anyone to ship or import wines into any state outside of Washington. The buyer is solely responsible for shipment of wine. By placing an order to be shipped outside of Washington, you authorize us to act on your behalf to engage a common carrier to ship your order.
Because of the temperature sensitive nature of wine, we recommend not shipping in summer or winter months.

Gift Certificates
Gift certificates are available in any amount. Gift certificates for membership in the Vintage Select Buyer’s club are also available.
Seattle Wine Storage
Storing wine properly, in temperature and humidity controlled conditions, is of utmost importance for successful aging. However, many people don’t have the space for a traditional wine cellar or live in apartments or condominiums where such a thing is impossible. If you need offsite wine storage, we wholeheartedly recommend Seattle Wine Storage. SWS has been around for 15 years and provides storage for all manner of cellars from small to large. They can be reached at (206) 628-4802 or at http://seattlewinestorage.biz
