Narrative 2022 Rosé
Citra 2025 Pinot Grigio Terre d’Abruzzo
Fresh pear and lemon zest lead a light, crisp palate built for refreshment. The fruit is clean and direct, with dry acidity giving it shape and keeping the finish brisk. Easygoing without feeling thin, it closes neatly on citrus and pear. Serve well chilled with seafood, grilled fish, antipasti or a simple salad dressed with lemon and olive oil.
Calliope 2024 Pinot Gris
A bright Canadian Pinot Gris with juicy pear, honeysuckle and honeydew melon on the nose. The palate is medium-bodied and fresh, combining orchard fruit and nectarine with a crisp citrus edge and a light touch of honey. Lively through the zesty finish, it works well with salads, mild curries, roast chicken or simple seafood dishes.
Meyer Family 2024 Chardonnay Columbia River Plateau
Ripe orchard fruit and melon shape a soft, rounded palate with a gentle suggestion of sweetness. Stainless-steel fermentation preserves freshness, while neutral oak adds quiet texture without obvious wood flavour. Fuller and more relaxed than a taut cool-climate style, it finishes smooth and ready to enjoy with roast chicken, salmon or creamy vegetable dishes.
Pétrus 2004 Pomerol
Refined and structured, with black cherry, plum and cassis supported by earth, truffle, graphite, dark chocolate and gentle spice. Rich and full-bodied, the palate brings ripe black fruit, well-integrated tannins, balanced acidity and a smooth texture into a long, lingering finish. Give it about three hours in a decanter and serve with duck, roast lamb or mushrooms.
Ekho 2023 Aegean Islands Rose
Soft pink and quietly aromatic, led by floral notes rather than overt fruit. Pronounced acidity gives the palate a crisp, taut shape, while subtle spice, lees ageing and partial fermentation in acacia bring texture and complexity without heaviness. Light-bodied, dry and elegant, it finishes clean and restrained. Serve well chilled with shellfish, grilled vegetables, mezze or lightly spiced seafood.
Baettig 2020 Selección de Parcelas Los Primos Pinot Noir
Cherry, pomegranate and wild strawberry open with violets, lavender and a subtle tobacco note. The palate is poised and finely structured, combining ripe red fruit with fresh acidity and a restrained savoury edge. The texture feels silky but not soft, giving the fruit measured tension. The finish is long and composed, leaving red berries, tea leaf, floral lift and gentle spice.
Viña Costeira 2024 Meu Albariño Ribeiro
Citrus and Granny Smith apple lead, joined by melon and freshly cut herbs. Peach, crisp apple and orange blossom follow on a full, gently textured palate, with a cool mint note adding lift. Fresh acidity carries the fruit into a clean, persistent finish. A polished match for shellfish, grilled fish or herb-led salads.
Saint Desirat 2022 Syrah
A peppery Northern Rhône-style Syrah with blackberry, blueberry and violet over smoked meat and savoury herbs. The palate is juicy and medium-bodied, with fresh acidity and fine tannins carrying the dark fruit into a smooth, spice-led finish. It pairs naturally with grilled lamb, sausages, lentils or dishes seasoned with black pepper and rosemary.
Sacchetto NV Ribolla Gialla Brut
Remoissenet 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin 3L
Earth and dark berries lead the nose, with oak adding a restrained savoury frame. Firmly structured on the palate, the fruit has enough depth to balance the wine's steady grip and grounded character. The finish is composed, persistent and gently wooded. Give it air before serving with roast lamb, braised beef or wild mushrooms.
Domaine Bunan 2023 Moulin des Costes Bandol Blanc
White flowers, citrus peel and fennel lead, followed by pear, lemon and a subtle saline note. The palate is fresh and textural, with enough breadth to carry the fruit while a crisp mineral line keeps the finish precise. Elegant and food-friendly, it suits shellfish, grilled fish or fresh goat cheese.
Bunan 2023 Moulin Des Costes Rose
A pale Provence rosé with wild strawberry, peach and fragrant Mediterranean herbs. The palate is dry and mineral-driven, with bright acidity and subtle salinity bringing focus to the soft fruit and carrying the wine into a clean, savoury finish. Elegant and refreshing, it pairs naturally with shellfish, grilled fish, salads or vegetable dishes dressed with olive oil and herbs.
Ducru-Beaucaillou 1990 Saint-Julien
Preserved plum and kirsch sit at the centre of a mature, savoury bouquet, layered with incense, cigar box, leather, tobacco and tilled earth. Medium- to full-bodied, the palate is graceful and satiny, carrying dried red berry and exotic spice over a gently chewy structure. The finish is long, fragrant and tea-toned. Decant carefully and serve with roast lamb or aged cheese.
M. Chapoutier 2005 Banyuls Vin Doux Naturel
Dried fig, raisin and blackberry lead a generous fortified profile, joined by raspberry, cherry, mint, black pepper and a light truffle note. Sweetness is balanced by fresh acidity and soft tannins, keeping the palate lively rather than heavy. Silky and refined through the finish, it suits fruit desserts or firm cheese, while a slight chill brings extra definition.
Domaine Philippe Delesvaux 2004 Clos du Pavillon Coteaux du Layon Saint-Aubin
Fresh white pear leads into apricot, persimmon, fig and dried tangerine, with honey, candied apple and a light butterscotch note adding depth. The palate is fully sweet and generously textured, yet lacy acidity and a fine mineral spine keep it precise. Almond and honeysuckle emerge across the long, composed finish.
Seppelt NV DP 33 Muscat
Deep brown with an olive-green rim, opening on raisin, toffee and honey with a measured hint of marmalade. The palate is creamy and velvet-smooth, layering crushed raisin, caramel and warm spice over a rich, concentrated core. Balanced warmth carries the sweetness through a very long finish that remains expressive rather than heavy.
Buller NV Fine Old Muscat
Reddish amber and richly perfumed, with raisins, dried fig and dark chocolate leading into caramel, brown sugar, dates and molasses. The texture is dense and velvety, yet bright acidity keeps the sweetness composed and fresh. A long, warming finish makes this an excellent after-dinner pour, either alone or beside chocolate brownies and cream.
Château Gloria 2008 Saint-Julien
Intense dark red in colour, with generous currant, plum and bright red cherry framed by tobacco, earth and gentle spice. The palate is medium-bodied, supple and immediately inviting, bringing pure fruit together with fresh acidity and soft, settled tannins. Elegant and savoury through the finish, it is ready with a short decant and suits roast beef, duck or lamb.
Château Mouton Rothschild 1988 Pauillac
Classic and mature, with cassis, plum and red berry framed by cedar, walnut, pencil shavings, tobacco and earthy mineral notes. The palate is round and balanced, showing fresh acidity, ripe tannins, vanilla and a gently drying woody edge on the long finish. Bottle condition matters; stand upright, decant carefully for about two hours and serve with veal or roast lamb.
