Dom Pérignon 2010 Vintage Brut Champagne Magnum
Green mango, melon and pineapple lead, opening into orange zest, crisp apple and white peach. The palate is full-bodied yet focused, with bright acidity and fine mineral drive balancing pie crust, bread dough and a smoky iodine note. Grapefruit, white pepper and toasted nuances linger through a long, energetic finish.
Bénédicte & Stéphane Tissot NV Crémant du Jura Magnum
Baked apple and tangy yellow fruit open with hints of fennel, ginger and fresh herbs. Crisp acidity gives the palate lift, while fine bubbles carry a broad, juicy orchard-fruit core. A light savoury edge and clean mineral tone add definition, leading to a dry, persistent finish that feels energetic, textured and quietly complex.
Pierre Gimonnet & Fils 2015 Special Club Champagne
Juicy citrus and tart green apple frame a cool, lean palate built around chalk and saline minerality. The mousse is fine and energetic, while delicate floral notes give the wine lift without softening its serious, tightly drawn structure. The finish is long, dry and precise. Excellent with oysters, sole meuniere, aged Comte or a simple roast chicken.
Verrier & Fils NV Tradition Mg
A robust Champagne with almond, cherry, darker berries and pastry on the nose. The palate is lively and effervescent, with firm structure balanced by bright acidity and notes of grapefruit and apple. Full-flavoured but composed through the lingering finish, it works well as an aperitif or with fried seafood, roast poultry and aged cheese.

Ferran 2019 Pessac-Leognan
A fresh Bordeaux red with a full, versatile palate and an easy sense of balance. Merlot brings rounded fruit and breadth, while Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot add structure and savoury definition. The finish is composed rather than heavy, making it a dependable match for roast beef, grilled lamb, mushrooms or firm cheeses.
Chateau Le Doyenne 2019 Cadillac Cotes de Bordeaux
Spice and blackcurrant lead the nose, with a lightly earthy, savoury edge. The palate is medium-bodied and direct, centred on firm, dry structure and bright red-plum fruit. Juicy acidity lifts the wine through the finish, keeping its ripe fruit focused and giving the close a fresh, lightly herbal turn.
Château Langoa Barton 2019 Saint-Julien
Dense and layered, with blackberry and other dark berries framed by mild spice, liquorice and discreet toasted notes. The palate is sappy and well structured, combining crisp fruit with ripe, firm tannins, a silky core and convincing length. Balanced but still youthful, it benefits from about two hours in a decanter before serving with beef or lamb.
Château Montrose 2011 Saint-Estephe
Dark-fruited and classically structured, with blackcurrant, blackberry, plum and dark cherry joined by cedar, tobacco, licorice, fine herbs and damp earth. Full-bodied but controlled, the palate combines firm, well-integrated tannins with fresh acidity and a mineral-saline edge. The finish is spicy, savoury and persistent; decant before serving with beef, venison or slow-roasted lamb.
Vaudon Fins Bois Double Cask 10 Year Old Cognac
Apricot and cooked banana lead with vanilla, white fruit and a lightly creamy note. The palate is rounded and composed, balancing ripe orchard fruit with toasted coconut and a gentle caramelised edge. Oak adds warmth without obscuring the fruit. The finish is smooth and measured, leaving vanilla, baked apple and a quiet touch of spice.
Domaine de Trevallon 2011 IGP Alpilles
Lush dark fruit meets dried herbs, black pepper and a cool stony note in a deeply savoury expression. The palate has generous ripeness but remains energetic, carried by juicy acidity, chalky minerality and ripe, well-integrated tannins. Earth and pepper return on the structured finish. Decant for an hour and serve with lamb, grilled meats or lentils.
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.
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.
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.
Domaine de l’Enclos 2023 Chablis Premier Cru La Fourchaume
Ripe orchard fruit opens with an inviting sense of richness. Full and softly enveloping on the palate, it carries its fruit with measured weight while a clear mineral line keeps the profile composed. The texture is generous without becoming heavy, and the flavours linger through a persistent, harmonious finish. A poised match for scallops, lobster, roast poultry or creamy mushroom dishes.
Remoissenet Père & Fils 2018 Meursault Premier Cru Poruzots
Pear, orange oil and white flowers lead with a restrained note of clear honey. The palate is medium-full and layered, combining ripe orchard fruit with cool mineral detail and a subtle touch of oak. Fresh citrus keeps the structure poised, carrying the Chardonnay through a long, complex and quietly generous finish.
Fauvin 2019 Chenas Cuvee Selene Magnum
Redcurrant, vanilla and peony meet in an intense, silky red with enough structure to carry its generous fruit. Partial ageing in new oak brings polish and complexity without obscuring the freshness of Gamay. Drink now or hold for several years, and serve with pigeon, feathered game, roast duck, mushroom dishes or a red-fruit tart for a more unexpected pairing.
