2024
Stella 2024 Chianti Colli Senesi
Italian Red
Red cherry, strawberry and plum lead a fresh, savoury profile with light floral and dried-herb notes. The palate is medium-bodied and food-friendly, balancing lively acidity with moderate tannins and a gentle earthy finish. Give it a short breath before serving with tomato-based pasta, grilled sausages, pizza or roast vegetables.
Weingut Maier 2024 Riesling Feinherb 1L
German White
A finely off-dry white presented in a one-litre bottle. The style belongs to the winery's litre-bottle range, which the producer describes as straightforward classics for everyday drinking. The gently off-dry designation defines the style, and the larger bottle is central to the presentation. The estate is based in Schwaikheim, Germany, where the wine forms part of the everyday range.
Shaw and Smith 2024 Sauvignon Blanc
Australian White
A vibrant, polished Sauvignon Blanc with bright peach and citrus at the centre and delicate floral notes adding lift. The palate carries the same energetic fruit across a smooth, lightly creamy texture, avoiding overt green pungency in favour of clarity and balance. A long, refreshing finish keeps the wine poised and food-friendly. Serve well chilled with shellfish, fresh goat cheese or herb-led salads.
Bischöfliche Weingüter Trier 2024 DOM Riesling
German White
Bold aromas of grapefruit, blossom and tangerine give an immediate sense of lift. The palate is buoyantly fruity and subtly sweet, yet refreshingly balanced, with juicy citrus held in check by clean acidity. A clear mineral cut sharpens the finish, leaving the wine bright, lively and effortlessly approachable.
Friedrich-Wilhelm-Gymnasium 2024 Fritz Willi Trocken Riesling
German White
Tart pear and white grapefruit open with crisp definition, moving into lime and lemon across the palate. This is a dry, invigorating Riesling with bright, electric acidity and a cool mineral line of steel and slate. Smoke and a gentle tea-like grip linger on the clean finish. Serve well chilled with shellfish or fresh cheeses.
La Soeur Cadette 2024 Bourgogne Blanc
French White
Bright and light on its feet, with lemon pith, green apple and delicate apple blossom over a cool, stony backdrop. The palate is crisp and energetic, its clean Chardonnay fruit carried by a snappy line of acidity and a gently chalky finish. Fresh, versatile and quietly detailed, it works especially well with shellfish, salads or goat cheese.
Vilacetinho 2024 Grande Escolha V Verde
Portuguese White
A fresh Vinho Verde with citrus, peach and yellow plum, lifted by lemongrass and a clear mineral note. The palate layers stone fruit and restrained tropical tones over bright acidity, giving the wine both texture and drive. Clean and versatile on the finish, it is particularly good with oysters, goat’s cheese, grilled fish or gently spiced Thai dishes.
