Wine
Pietradolce 2022 Etna Bianco
Lemon verbena, sage and salted pistachio create a delicate, distinctly volcanic aroma. The palate is sleek and bone-dry, driven by racy acidity and a firm linear precision that keeps the citrus and herbal notes finely drawn. Mineral and quietly savoury through the finish, it is a polished match for oysters, lobster salad or simply grilled fish.
Rigour & Whimsy 2021 Bite of the Dragon Riesling
Bright and focused, with a dry, high-acid profile built for the table. Whole-cluster pressing preserves clarity, while barrel fermentation and four months in seasoned oak add measured texture without obscuring the wine's energy. The finish is firm, clean and persistent, making the wine especially suited to bold, savoury flavours.
St. Supéry 2016 Napa Valley Estate Oak Free Chardonnay
Dried apricot, cantaloupe and pear open the nose, with a subtle note of orange marmalade adding warmth.

Bright and fruit-driven, with no oak weight, it is a polished match for roast chicken, grilled prawns, creamy pasta, soft cheeses or simply prepared white fish.
Les Capriades 2019 Pet-Sec Pétillant Naturel
Lychee, white flowers and bright citrus rise over pear, apricot and a gentle yeasty note. The palate is dry and electric, with fine savoury bubbles carrying ripe melon and orchard fruit. A crunchy mineral backbone brings tension to the creamy texture, leaving the finish clean, vivid and lightly saline.
Clos Lentiscus Blanc Brut Nature
Venturini Baldini NV T.E.R.S. Ancestrale Lambrusco Emilia IGP

Crunchy red fruit returns through the persistent finish, keeping the wine energetic and balanced.
Haywire Merlot Pouch 1.5 L
Ripe blackberry and plum lead into subtle herbal and savoury notes in this medium-bodied Merlot. The palate is smooth and dry, with juicy dark fruit, soft tannins and a clean, fresh finish. Its practical larger format makes it an easy choice for burgers, pizza or weeknight pasta, while the wine remains polished and approachable.
Wesbert 2020 Wise Guy Red Blend
Ripe cherry and dried fig open a polished red, with dark chocolate, oak smoke and leather adding quiet savoury depth.

Koerner 2018 Rolle
Vasques de Carvalho 2015 Oxum Tinto

A soft, composed finish makes this an easy table red. Serve with braised beef, roast lamb, game or slow-cooked stews.
Casa Mariol Vermut Blanc 750 mL
Pale and aromatic, this white vermouth brings green herbs, fennel and anise together with bitter citrus and a subtle vanilla note.

Serve well chilled over ice with lemon, top with soda, or pair with anchovies, shellfish, salted almonds and young cheese.
Le Cecche 2017 Fiammingo Langhe
A structured Langhe red with cherry, dried raspberry and plum set against cedar, tobacco and earthy spice.

Domaine des Escaravailles 2019 Le Ventabren Cairanne
Redcurrant and mixed berries lead, followed by black cherry, liquorice, menthol and white pepper.

A savoury thread of dried herbs and earth carries the powerful fruit into a long, composed finish.
Château du Hureau 2020 Saumur Blanc Argile
Apricot and Anjou pear lead, followed by white flowers and fresh citrus. The palate is succulent yet focused, with bright acidity shaping ripe white and exotic fruit into a clean, tonic line. A subtle mineral grip adds texture and precision, carrying the wine through a long, layered and gently floral finish.
Scali 2016 Pinotage Voor-Paardeberg WO
Seductive ripe red berries lead, layered with warm spice and a stony mineral note.

Gentle savoury oak and fresh acidity bring definition before a smooth, lingering and quietly spicy finish.
Scali 2016 Syrah
A dark-fruited Syrah with ripe plum and blackberry, joined by violet, black pepper, fennel and local herbal notes. The palate is balanced and savoury, with firm tannins, steady acidity and a clear mineral thread supporting the fruit.

Karthäuserhof 2019 Eitelsbacher Karthäuserhofberg Kabinett Grosse Lage Riesling
Feather-light yet piercing, with pure layers of Mirabelle plum and gooseberry carried by a steely, electric spine. Green florals add perfume, while a restrained touch of sweetness softens the wine's vivid edges. Pulsing, precise and thirst-quenching, it closes with the same clean energy that shapes the palate.
Santa Vittoria 2017 Barolo DOCG
Clear garnet with a brick-toned rim, opening on dried cherry, rose petal and tar, followed by leather, sweet tobacco, forest floor and anise.
