Remoissenet Père et Fils Clos Vougeot Gc
Deeply coloured Pinot Noir with violet, rose, blackberry, raspberry and a hint of wild mint, moving toward liquorice and truffle with age. Rich, succulent and mellow, the palate balances meaty fullness with elegance, finishing long and composed. A cellar-worthy Burgundy for braised lamb, roast veal, game birds or washed-rind cheese.
Remoissenet Pere et Fils 2020 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru
Floral and expansive, with honeysuckle and gardenia leading into pear, poached apple, ginger and lightly grilled pineapple. The palate is silky and generous, balanced by enough freshness to keep the richness precise. Creamy vanilla lingers through a polished finish. This grand cru white rewards a short decant and pairs naturally with seared scallops, lobster, roast chicken or soft-ripened cheese.
Verrier & Fils NV Pinot Noir Champagne
Vaudon Pineau des Charentes Blanc
Golden amber in the glass, with a rich, rounded bouquet of dried fig, vine blossom and vanilla. Floral notes, honeyed sweetness and almond shape the smooth palate, while a gentle freshness keeps the finish balanced and composed. Serve well chilled as an aperitif, with fruit-based desserts or alongside blue cheese.
Coquard 2020 Saint-Veran
Fragrant orchard blossom and juicy white peach lead, followed by fresh citrus and a rounded mineral note. The palate is elegant and bright, with enough softness to feel generous and a subtle almond nuance on the finish. Serve lightly chilled with fresh seafood, roast chicken, creamy risotto, soft cheeses or simply prepared vegetables; the balance is polished and quietly expressive.
Lavau 2022 Tavel Rose
Candied cherry, cassis and frozen raspberry lead a vivid, fruit-forward rose, with pepper and spice adding lift. Creamy yet vibrant, the medium-bodied palate carries good volume and intensity without losing focus. A generous, structured style with a clean, spicy finish, it suits grilled salmon, tomato-based dishes or charcuterie served slightly chilled.
D’Esclans 2024 Whispering Angel Rosé
Pale and polished, with perfumed strawberry, raspberry and rose petal at the centre. The palate stays dry and silky, layering red berries with citrus freshness and a restrained touch of spice. Smooth texture gives the wine presence without weight, while the long, clean finish keeps it composed. Serve well chilled with shellfish, salads or light Mediterranean dishes.
Chant Des Sirenes 2025 Gris De Sauvignon Rose
Red berries, citrus and gentle spice form a bright, aromatic nose. The palate is crisp and intense, with clean minerality bringing definition to the fresh fruit and a lively, dry finish. Its combination of delicacy and energy works equally well as an aperitif or alongside shellfish, Mediterranean salads, baked fish, Thai curry or tagine.
Clos Fornelli 2021 Sciaccarellu Rosé
Wild strawberry, red cherry and blood orange rise from the glass with lavender, botanical herbs and a peppery mineral note. The palate is dry and silky, with bright acidity giving definition to the ripe fruit and gentle spice. A subtle saline edge keeps the finish fresh, savoury and quietly persistent.
Mirabeau NV Prêt-à-Porter Rosé Single Can
Clos Cibonne 2020 Cuvée Tradition Tibouren Rosé Magnum
Blood orange, tangerine and clementine lead an expressive nose, joined by rose petals, sweet spice and white pepper. The palate is round and layered yet remains vibrant, with ripe citrus, gentle herbal notes and a subtle coastal salinity. A supple, savoury finish gives this structured rosé unusual breadth and composure.
Claude Lafond 2023 Gris Rose La Grande Piece
Pale and delicately salmon-hued, with fresh red berries, citrus and a subtle mineral lift. The palate is fine-boned and refreshing, balancing gentle roundness with lively acidity and a clean, persistent finish. Made entirely from Pinot Gris in Reuilly, it is a polished, understated rose rather than an overtly fruity one. Serve well chilled with grilled fish, charcuterie, summer salads or fresh goat cheese.
Domaine des Baumard 2021 Rosé de Loire
Bright strawberry and raspberry lead a fresh, dry rosé, with a subtle peppery note giving the fruit definition. The palate is light and balanced, its clean acidity keeping the berry character lively from start to finish. Straightforward and food-friendly, it works well with charcuterie, grilled vegetables, salmon or lightly spiced dishes.
Chateau Maucoil 2019 Chateauneuf-du-Pape
Sun-warmed strawberry and red cherry lead, sharpened by cassis and blackberry and layered with brambly herbs. The palate is richly concentrated and penetrating, yet zesty and vibrant, with dark fruit, spice and savoury depth held by fine, tautly composed tannins. Generous in scale but balanced, finishing with freshness and precision.
Mas Gabinele 2021 Carignan
Ruby-red and generously aromatic, with crushed strawberry and Ente plum joined by black pepper and liquorice. The palate has real depth and body without losing its sense of freshness, carrying the ripe red fruit and savoury spice through a long, fragrant finish. Bold enough for grilled foods, yet polished and easy to enjoy.
Château de La Liquière 2021 Les Amandiers Blanc Faugères
White flowers, bright citrus and fresh orchard fruit lead with an open, charming fragrance. The palate is delicate and clean, keeping its white-fruit core lively and gratifying rather than weighty. Early-morning hand harvesting and tank ageing preserve the vivid, pure profile, while the high, schist-grown site lends the finish a precise sense of place.
La Liquiere 2019 Les Amandiers Rouge
A generous Languedoc red with redcurrant, strawberry and blackcurrant, layered with spice and garrigue. The palate is full and fruit-forward, though aromatic freshness and silky tannins keep it balanced. Smooth through the finish, it is an easy match for grilled meat, ratatouille, stuffed vegetables, herbed sausages or other robust Mediterranean dishes.
Dupre 2020 Morgon Cote De Py
A lively Morgon with wild strawberry and raspberry, accented by white pepper, agave and dried herbs. The fresh, medium-bodied palate is framed by silky, polished tannins that coat without weighing down the fruit. Juicy and vibrant through the finish, it leaves a savoury herbal note and suits charcuterie, roast poultry, grilled pork or mushrooms.
Domaine A.F. Gros 2021 Vosne-Romanée Les Chalandins
A distinctive floral perfume leads into a direct, finely shaped palate. Silky texture gives the red fruit a graceful flow, while a subtle extra depth develops through the middle. The finish is notably long and detailed, with a flicker of complexity that keeps the wine lively rather than heavy. Elegant now, with the poise to reward careful cellaring.
