Domaine Joseph Burrier 2017 Chiroubles Saint Roch
Deep ruby and lifted, opening with ripe cherry, blackberry and redcurrant over a subtle peppery spice.

Serve lightly cool with roast chicken, charcuterie or mushroom dishes.
Château du Hureau 2013 Saumur Blanc Argile
Château Beaumont 2019 Haut-Médoc
Blackberry, cassis and plum meet briar, light tobacco and a restrained touch of sandalwood. Medium to full-bodied, the palate balances ripe fruit with grainy, well-shaped tannins and fresh acidity. Black coffee and subtle spice add savoury depth before a charming, composed finish. A classic partner for roast beef or hard cheese.
Croix Mouton 2019 Bordeaux Superieur
Smoky plum and blackberry form a dense, dark-fruited core, with subtle spice, cocoa and liquorice adding savoury depth. Full and rounded on the palate, the mainly Merlot blend carries ripe fruit through tannins that are beginning to soften. The finish remains earthy and generous. Pair with braised beef, lamb or grilled mushrooms.
Guillaume Vrignaud 2023 Chablis
White flowers, green apple and lemongrass lead a bright, finely drawn profile. The palate is silken, with subtle lees texture set over a cool river-stone mineral line. Freshness carries the wine cleanly, giving the finish a snappy, lifted feel rather than weight. Precise and food-friendly, it pairs naturally with oysters, white fish, roast poultry or fresh goat cheese.
Bodegas Gaintza 2025 Txakoli Rose
Lemon, strawberry and raspberry rise from a bright salmon-pink glass, edged by a distinct sea-spray minerality. Crisp acidity and a delicate effervescence give the palate a lively, mouth-watering feel, while the red fruit stays clear and restrained. The finish is clean, salty and refreshing. Serve with oysters, ceviche or fried fish.
Collemattoni 2023 Rosso di Montalcino
Red fruit opens with violet and almond, leading into a firmly structured palate. The tannins are still youthful, but concentrated cherry carries through the finish and gives the wine a clear sense of promise. Savoury and composed, it has enough depth for roast pork, grilled mushrooms or tomato-rich pasta, and will reward a little air before serving.
Mas Gabinele 2015 Belandes Minervois
Medicinal herbs, liquorice and dark forest berries shape a savoury, distinctly southern French nose. The palate is juicy and well composed, with ripe balsamic tannins supporting Grenache and Syrah fruit rather than weighing it down. Dark berry depth, herbal freshness and a gently resinous note carry into a charming, persistent finish. Serve with lamb, cassoulet, grilled sausages or aged cheese.
Domaine Pelle 2019 Menetou-Salon Morogues Blanc
White flowers and citrus lead into ripe peach, lime zest and a gentle herbal note. The palate is fuller than many Loire Sauvignon Blancs, but remains racy and clear, with refreshing acidity and a saline mineral line carrying the finish. Its balance of richness and precision works well with goat cheese, asparagus, shellfish or herb-roasted chicken.
Real Agrado 2019 Rioja Reserva
A rounded Rioja Reserva with ripe red berries, fig and prune, accented by vanilla, cocoa and a light balsamic note. The palate is structured yet velvety, with fresh acidity and gentle tannins holding the mature fruit in balance. Its long, harmonious finish makes it a natural partner for stews, braised legumes, roast lamb or cured cheese.
La Rivolta 2021 Aglianico del Taburno
Wild cassis, fleshy raspberry and juicy blackberry lead, with sweet pepper, tobacco, cumin and clove adding savoury depth. Concentrated yet precise, the palate keeps the dark fruit focused while spice builds through the finish. Give it a brief decant and serve with braised beef, roast lamb or grilled mushrooms.
Champalou 2023 Vouvray Sec
White acacia blossom opens into green apple, pear and quince, with a quiet note of honeyed wax and dried herbs. The palate is medium-bodied and dry, balancing fruit expression with fresh acidity and a long, clean finish. Detailed yet unforced, it works equally well as an aperitif or alongside grilled trout, pork, rice dishes or fresh cheeses.
Viña Montes 2009 Montes Alpha M Colchagua Valley 750 mL
Dark wild-berry confit, ripe cherry and herbal savouriness lead the documented profile, joined by eucalyptus and cocoa. The palate is juicy and complex, with vivid, integrated tannins carrying the wine through a fruit-led finish. The recorded blend is predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon, supported by Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Deep colour and pronounced acidity are also recorded.
Domaine Yves Cuilleron 2023 Syrah Les Vignes d’à Côté IGP Collines Rhodaniennes 750 mL
Bright ruby in colour, the documented profile is perfumed and fruit-led, with raspberry, cherry, violet and a subtle spicy note. The palate is described as light and pleasant, supported by soft tannins and vibrant freshness. Juicy red fruit, black pepper and a mineral hint complete the record, keeping the style direct, expressive and clearly defined.
Les Cortis 2019 Mérune 750 mL
Green apple and melon lead, followed by lemon peel and a broader citrus note. The profile moves from orchard fruit toward a more pithy citrus register, giving the wine a clear progression across the palate. Chardonnay provides a familiar frame, but the fruit remains individual and finely detailed. The finish is compact and fruit-led, with lemon peel lingering after the softer melon note recedes.
Joie 2023 En Famille Reserve Chardonnay
Lemon curd, exotic peach and ripe mango open a broad, expressive palate. Creamy texture brings hints of crème brûlée and oatmeal, while citrus and mineral detail temper the richness and keep the layers in balance. Generous without becoming heavy, this Chardonnay combines depth, polish and enough freshness to carry the finish with quiet confidence.
Maculan 2020 Torcolato Breganze
Deep gold opens with acacia honey, dried apricot, candied fig and orange peel. Saffron, toasted almond and a touch of salty toffee add depth. Full-bodied and silky, the palate is rich without becoming syrupy, as bright acidity keeps the fruit sharply defined. Zesty lime and papaya carry the long, clean finish.
Masi Angelorum Recioto della Valpolicella Classico
Cooked cherry and preserved red fruit lead an intense, deeply coloured profile, with sweet spice and a subtle balsamic edge adding complexity. The palate is rich and generous, balancing natural sweetness with lively acidity and soft tannins. Ripe cherry carries through the long, persistent finish. Pair with blue cheese, fruit tart or traditional panettone.
Anthony Buchanan 2023 Ashlyn Pinot Noir
Bright red fruit and delicate florals lead, followed by a lightly earthy, savoury note. The palate is supple and precise, with whole berries and ambient fermentation preserving freshness and fine aromatic detail. Gentle French oak and concrete ageing add shape without heaviness, while measured acidity carries the fruit through a clean, softly textured and composed finish.
Ursa Major 2023 Chapter V Gamay Vin Gris
Whole-cluster pressed without maceration, this pale Gamay was fermented naturally in neutral barrels and puncheons, then rested on its lees for five months. Volcanic rock, sandy loam and clay at the West Kelowna site frame a precise, lightly textured vin gris. Hand-bottled unfined and unfiltered, it finishes with quiet savoury detail and gentle breadth.
