In 2021, a remarkable 100-liter French oak cask was commissioned at Hoeve de Bies, sourced from Wijndomein Mergelsberg.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis vessel carries considerable provenance, having previously matured Cabernet Sauvignon and Pinot Noir under the stewardship of winemakers Peter and Steyn Mergelsberg, whose expertise and terroir knowledge remain imprinted within its grain. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis spirit benefits from the nuanced aromatic character the cask imparts – subtle tannin structures and vinous undertones that have accumulated within the oak's cellular matrix over years of wine maturation. The resulting distillate presents remarkable complexity and depth, bearing the unmistakable influence of both domains. It represents a thoughtful exploration of the intersection between wine and spirits, embodying the shared vision and craftsmanship of two dedicated producers who understand that exceptional spirits begin with exceptional wood. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduced by Stookery Norbeck | 50 cl | 41% alc.\/vol.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2025 ed\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eYou receive a bottle now (2025 release).\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2025 + 2028 ed\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eYou receive a bottle now (2025 release).\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eYou pre-purchase the 2028 edition (aged 3 extra years) and receive access to the release party + HDB’s 10-year anniversary.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wijndomein Mergelsberg","offers":[{"title":"2025 ed","offer_id":56672630604158,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"2025 ed + 2028 ed","offer_id":56672630636926,"sku":null,"price":139.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/8455\/8206\/files\/Noorbeek-www.guyhouben.com_hoevedebies-1.jpg?v=1764935077","url":"https:\/\/hdbshop.be\/products\/noor-beek","provider":"Hoevedebies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
