Domdechant Werner 2017 Hochheim Guts Trocken Riesling
Ripe yellow peach and a touch of honey lead into brisk lemon and lime. Dry and light-footed, the palate is driven by lively acidity and a distinct mineral edge, keeping the richer fruit clean and refreshing. The finish is bright, precise and gently savoury rather than sweet. Serve well chilled with oysters, smoked trout, schnitzel, fresh cheeses or lightly spiced dishes.
Bischöfliche Weingüter Trier 2019 Piesporter Goldtröpfchen Riesling Kabinett
Guava, mango and tangerine open an aromatic Riesling, followed by peach and yellow cherry.

Light on its feet despite the ripe fruit, it suits spicy dishes, roast pork or salty cheeses.
Bischöfliche Weingüter Trier 2019 DOM Riesling
Bold aromas of grapefruit, blossom and tangerine give an immediate sense of lift.

Friedrich-Wilhelm-Gymnasium 2019 Fritz Willi Trocken Riesling
Tart pear and white grapefruit open with crisp definition, moving into lime and lemon across the palate.

Serve well chilled with shellfish or fresh cheeses.
Robert Weil 2018 Kiedrich Gräfenberg Riesling Auslese
Intense ripe apricot, peach and mango set a generous tone, but the palate stays remarkably precise.

Florian Beck-Hartweg 2019 Tout Naturellement Pétillant
Vibrant fruit sits beneath beautifully fine bubbles, with a firm spine giving this rosé pét-nat welcome shape.

Unusual but highly approachable, it is an excellent aperitif and works well with chickpea fritters or crisp salads.
Trimbach 2023 Sylvaner Weinbaum
Nutty apple and delicate herbs lead a generous, quietly distinctive nose. The palate is medium-bodied, concentrated and elegant, with a cool, dry herbal line carrying through the long finish.

Trimbach 2016 Reserve Pinot Gris
Ripe Mirabelle plum and pear shape the nose, giving a generous first impression without excess sweetness.

Taut and clean from entry to finish, it carries its weight with poise and closes with whistle-clean precision.
Domaine Ostertag 2018 Clos Mathis Riesling
Focused and finely sculpted, with bright citrus framed by a cool, stony mineral character.

Jean-Paul Mauler 2016 Riesling Grand Cru Schoenenbourg
Deep gold in tone, with an enveloping, complex nose of pear, lime, grapefruit and bergamot over mineral, lightly smoky notes and a savoury herbal edge. The palate is full and powerful, its generous texture held in shape by clear, wrapping acidity. Concentrated and persistent, with the balance to continue developing.
Domaine Ferret 2022 Pouilly-Fuisse
Citrus and fresh almond lead a polished, mineral Chardonnay, with ripe orchard fruit and a subtle floral lift adding breadth. The palate is rounded and generous, yet limestone-derived saltiness and a fine granitic line keep it poised. Supple through the middle and clean on the finish, it pairs naturally with roast chicken, shellfish or creamy cheeses.
Remoissenet Pere & Fils 2019 Chassagne-Montrachet
Vanilla, light oak and cream frame ripe pineapple, stone fruit and white peach. The palate is broad and polished, then tightened by bright acidity that keeps the richness in check. A long finish brings caramel and vanilla back into focus without losing freshness. Give it a little air and serve with roast poultry, lobster, creamy seafood or firm alpine cheeses.
Remoissenet 2019 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru

A gently savoury mineral note brings definition to the clean, composed finish.
Remoissenet Pere & Fils 2019 Beaune Montagne Saint-Desire
White flowers and lemon zest lead into a clean line of crushed-stone minerality. The palate is concentrated yet finely drawn, with a silky texture and enough freshness to keep the shape precise.

Billaud-Simon 2020 Chablis Grand Cru Bougros
Intense mineral notes meet candied fruit on the nose, leading into a rich, unctuous palate with a measured gingerbread warmth.

Serve with oysters, grilled fish, scallops or poultry in a light cream sauce, allowing a little air before pouring.
Domaine Etienne Sauzet 2019 Bourgogne Blanc
Fresh pear, crisp apple and lemon-lime open with a light floral lift. The palate is silky and gently rounded, but a clear mineral line and mouthwatering acidity keep the Chardonnay precise.
