Michele Chiarlo Gavi di Gavi 'Rovereto' 2016

Italy, Piedmont, 2016

Michele Chiarlo is one of Piedmont's truly great winemakers. The family owns 60 hectares of vineyard in three of the classic growing areas. Michele has insisted on total quality since his first vintage in 1956, an ethos which his sons Stefano and Alberto adopt today. The Chiarlo style is highly elegant, they make complex wines that can age for decades but above all reflect their provenance - some of the finest vineyard sites in Piedmont.

Madeleine Angevine, Knightor Winery

Cornwall, England, 2015

The Madeleine Angevine grapes are gently whole bunch pressed to achieve as fine a juice as possible. A slow, cool fermentation retains freshness and delicacy. The wine is very elegant with subtle gooseberry, nettle and elderflower aromas, with some floral and passion fruit notes. The palate is fine and restrained with gentle acidity and good balance. A great match with a variety of seafood and foraged ingredients such as samphire and nettles.

Cousino Macul Dona Isadora Riesling

Maipo Valley, Chile, 2013

A wine with an interesting past..! In the 19th Century Luis Cousino and his wife Isidora brought some Riesling vine grafts back from Germany from which the vines found in the Vineyards today are descended. This is a true Riesling with a touch of the Chilean sun; Fresh green apple, lime and hints of guava in the bouquet mingle with aromatic notes of spice and candied fruit. Crisp and fruity on the palate with steely mineral tones and a fine structure which carries through the citrus and melon flavours and slight hint of ginger to the long finish. A superb food wine, the Isidora Riesling is a great partner for Asiatic cuisine such as Thai and Chinese where it compliments the sweet & sour and spicy elements of these dishes beautifully. This wine also works brilliantly with traditional pork dishes, oysters, seafood dishes and paté.

Barrandica Pinot Noir

Uco Valley, Mendoza Province, Argentina, 2013

100% Pinot Noir grapes, aged for 3 months in French oak barrels, prior to resting in bottle for at least 6 months . An expressive and fruity Pinot Noir from the Valle de Uco, with ripe red fruit, nuts and lilac floral notes. Compared to French Pinot Noir, the Barrandica is fuller and fruitier. It nonetheless manages to maintain all the finesse one expects from a good Pinot Noir. It was once declared that “God made Cabernet Sauvignon, whereas the devil made Pinot Noir.” Our friends at Bodega Antucura have not only managed to tame this mischievous vine, but have produced a Pinot Noir that should make the producers in Burgundy want to up their game!

Feudi di San Gregorio, Cutizzi, Greco di Tufo

Italy, Campania, 2017

A vibrant wine with beautiful clarity and layers of classic pear, peach and green plum fruit. Full bodied and bright on the palate, with a lively acidity and a sharp, defined minerality, very typical of the region.

Champagne Collet Brut Art Déco NV

Champagne, France, 2006

A swirl of very fine bubbles is reflected in a creamy style of Champagne with developed biscuity notes from extended ageing on the lees and a lovely long and savoury finish. This wine is full of charm.
