Wine
Gymnasium Fritz Willi 2022 Kabinett
A fresh, aromatic Mosel Riesling with green apple, white peach and citrus. The palate is light-bodied and crisp, with bright acidity balancing a gentle touch of sweetness and keeping the fruit precise. Clean and refreshing through the finish, it makes an easy aperitif and pairs comfortably with lightly spiced food, simple seafood or soft, mild cheeses.
Moulin Borie 2015 Listrac Medoc
An elegant Listrac-Médoc with blackcurrant, blackberry and dark cherry, accented by subtle cedar and spice. The palate is medium- to full-bodied, with refined tannins and balanced acidity shaping the dark fruit without hardening it. Long and savoury through the finish, it is well matched with roast beef, lamb, mushrooms or mature hard cheese.
Mas Gabinele 2022 Faugeres
Ripe blackberry, plum and red cherry are layered with liquorice, pepper, tobacco and warm Mediterranean herbs. The palate is generous yet balanced, with supple tannins and enough freshness to keep the dark fruit clearly defined. Spice and a light savoury note carry the finish. Serve with grilled lamb, sausages or slow-cooked vegetables.
Cailleteau Bergeron 2012 Tradition
A rich, fruit-forward Bordeaux blend with ripe blackberry, plum and black cherry, complemented by subtle spice.

Approachable but composed, it is a natural match for roast beef, burgers, mushrooms or firm cheese.
Brague 2018 Bordeaux Superieur
A rounded Bordeaux blend with generous red fruit, pepper and licorice on the nose. The palate is balanced and supple, with the Cabernets adding shape and freshness while stewed fruit and chocolate deepen the finish. Smooth enough for a broad range of meals, it is especially comfortable with roast beef, burgers, mushrooms or firm cheese.
Brague Claire De Lune 2024 Bordeaux
A light, bright Bordeaux red with very gentle tannins and an easy, chilled-drinking style. The palate is fresh and luminous rather than heavily structured, making it unusually versatile at the table and especially comfortable with seafood, grilled fish or aromatic dishes. Serve it lightly chilled for aperitifs, summer lunches or any occasion calling for a softer red.
Caves São João Bruto
Caves São João 2023 Bairrada Red Brut Sparkling
Ruby-coloured and lively, with red fruit, balsamic lift, anise and peppery herbal notes. A delicate, fresh attack gives the palate energy, while moderate acidity keeps the texture poised and the savoury spice clearly defined. Persistent without feeling heavy, it suits fatty fish, grilled meats or well-seasoned rice dishes.
Casa Santos Lima 2025 Topo Rosé
L’Amaurigue 2024 Fleur Cotes De Provence
A delicate Provence rosé with grapefruit, white peach and fresh citrus on the nose. The palate is light-bodied and rounded, with bright acidity bringing clarity to the soft fruit and a clean, lingering finish. Refreshing and well balanced, it suits shellfish, salads, grilled vegetables or an unhurried glass on a warm afternoon.
Penfolds Cabernet Sauvignon Bin 407 2018
A polished South Australian Cabernet with cassis, blackberry, violet, bay leaf, tobacco, cedar and graphite. Carefully judged oak frames the fruit without crowding it, while the medium- to full-bodied palate balances concentration with freshness. Fine, persistent tannins lead into a savoury, chocolate-tinged finish. Serve it with grilled steak, roast lamb or a rich mushroom dish.
Grand Vin de Leoville du Marquis de las Cases 2010
A monumental Saint-Julien with deep cassis, blackcurrant and plum, joined by cedar, cigar box, graphite, clove and mineral notes. The full-bodied palate is tightly structured, layering powerful dark fruit over firm, finely grained tannins and vibrant acidity. Long and classical through the finish, it deserves a generous decant alongside prime beef, venison or lamb.
Chateau Haut Bailly Grand Cru Classe 2019
A refined Cabernet-led Pessac-Léognan with cassis, black cherry and plum, layered with violet, tobacco, cedar, graphite and crushed stone. The palate is medium- to full-bodied, yet sleek and composed, with fine tannins and fresh acidity carrying the fruit into a persistent mineral finish. Decant before serving with roast beef, lamb or duck.
Cune Imperial Rioja 2012
A mature, classical Rioja with blackberry, dried cherry, cedar, tobacco, vanilla, leather and warm spice. The palate brings ripe dark fruit together with savoury earth and a fresh mineral lift, supported by polished tannins and measured structure. Graceful rather than heavy through the persistent finish, it suits roasted meats, grilled lamb or aged hard cheeses.
Antinori Tignanello 2020
A benchmark Tuscan red led by Sangiovese, with ripe cherry, blackberry, violet, tobacco, cedar and sweet spice. The palate is concentrated yet energetic, layering dark fruit, cocoa and savoury herbs over vivid acidity, fine-grained tannins and integrated oak. Long and refined through the finish, it rewards air and pairs naturally with steak, lamb or richly flavoured Italian dishes.
Chateau de Beaucastel Chateau du Pape 2020
Château de Beaucastel Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2020 is a classic, Mourvèdre-led Southern Rhône red that shows the estate’s trademark depth and savoury complexity. Aromas of black cherry, blackberry, dried rose, lavender, liquorice, leather and garrigue lead into a layered palate of dark fruit, pepper, earth and warm spice.
Full-bodied and structured, it keeps its shape through fresh acidity, firm but polished tannins and a long mineral finish. A serious, ageworthy red for roast lamb, game or slow-braised meats.
Laronde 2014 Bordeaux Superieur
A mature Bordeaux blend with dried dark fruit, cedar and leather, shaped by dusty tannins and firm acidity. The palate is dry and savoury, showing restrained fruit and a graphite-like mineral line rather than overt richness. Clean and composed on the finish, it is well suited to roast beef, lamb, mushrooms or other quietly earthy dishes.
Kir-Yianni 2021 Xinomavro Ramnista
A firm, age-worthy Xinomavro with deep colour, pronounced acidity and powerful tannins. Its dark-fruited profile is framed by a complex aromatic character and a distinctly structured palate, giving the wine both freshness and the capacity to develop over time. Decanting will help it open; serve with braised beef, lamb, mushrooms or rich tomato-based dishes.
Majas 2025 Blanc Cotes Catalanes Organic
A youthful white blend with clear freshness and a mineral edge. Floral and fruity aromas lead into white peach and lemon zest, while lively acidity keeps the palate bright and focused through a clean finish. Easy to enjoy but neatly composed, it suits salads, grilled vegetables, light seafood or a simple plate of fresh cheese.
