Fattoria La Rivolta 2017 Terra di Rivolta Aglianico del Taburno Riserva
Champalou 2015 Vouvray La Moelleuse
Gently sweet and supple, this late-harvest Chenin carries generous orchard fruit through a rounded, silky palate. Mouthwatering acidity cuts cleanly through the richness, bringing freshness and balance to the lingering finish. Expressive without becoming heavy, it is well suited to fruit desserts, blue cheese, foie gras or a quiet glass after dinner.
La Rioja Alta Viña Ardanza 2012 Reserva
Graceful and classically styled, with ripe fruit, gentle smoke and polished oak forming a seamless aromatic line. The palate is medium-bodied and smooth, with oak warmth building around the fruit in a measured, savoury shape. Nothing feels excessive or heavy. The finish is composed and persistent, leaving soft smoke, mellow fruit and a quietly traditional Rioja character.
Carpineto 2010 Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Riserva
Violet and ripe fruit open the aroma, with polished wood adding a measured frame. The palate is dry and harmonious, carrying concentrated fruit through a velvety texture and firm, well-integrated structure. The wine stays composed as it develops. The finish is long and balanced, returning to violet, ripe fruit and gentle wood tones with an elegant, mature sense of proportion.
Voirin-Jumel NV L’Assemblage Tradition Brut
Ripe red fruit leads, followed by cherry biscuit, delicate pastry flakes, sea salt and chalky spice. The palate is vinous and generous rather than sharply linear, with equal parts Chardonnay and Pinot Noir bringing elegance and depth. Savoury, dry and lightly crunchy through the finish, it offers richness without losing its poised freshness.
Rhys Alesia 2018 Chardonnay Santa Cruz Mountains
Apple, pear and passion fruit emerge gradually from a reserved nose, joined by citrus blossom, fresh nutmeg and fine mineral detail. The palate opens with succulent fruit and a gentle touch of refined vanilla oak, then tightens into a chiseled, balanced close. Poised acidity keeps the Chardonnay precise and quietly energetic.
Forman 2020 Chardonnay Napa Valley
A restrained, fresh white whose fruit is framed by lively acidity and subtle lees-aged richness. Older barrels bring gentle texture rather than overt oak, allowing the clean fruit to remain central. The palate is composed and balanced, with quiet aromatic complexity and a precise, refreshing finish that favours clarity over weight.
Othello 2018 Red Blend Napa Valley
Blackcurrant and cedar lead with ripe raspberry, inky cassis, violet and wild strawberry. The palate is cool and focused, placing dense dark fruit inside a frame of fine, polished tannins. Bitter chocolate, peppery spice and a lift of fresh acidity add detail, while supple texture and cedary notes carry the wine into a poised finish.
La Valentina 2015 Bellovedere Montepulciano d’Abruzzo DOC Terre dei Vestini Riserva
Mentholated herbs, tobacco and anise frame a concentrated core of brandied cherry. The palate is medium-bodied, polished and bright, with red fruit folding neatly into measured barrel spice. Well-mannered tannins provide supportive structure, extending the fruit and savoury detail through an assured, composed, lingering finish.
Trinoro 2018 Le Cupole Toscana IGT
Bright garnet in the glass, with an intense nose of ripe damson, cherry and elderberry joined by subtle balsamic and savoury notes. The palate is lavish and juicy yet energetic, layering generous dark fruit over a balanced frame. Freshness carries the concentrated flavours into a poised, lingering finish.
Remoissenet Père et Fils 2019 Ladoix Blanc
Pale-gold Chardonnay with acacia, ripe apple, quince and spiced pear, underscored by a gentle buttery note. The palate balances generous texture with lively freshness and a firm, composed line, becoming rounder with time. A polished white Burgundy for shellfish, cooked seafood or softly spiced fish and prawn dishes.
Remoissenet Père et Fils 2019 Santenay Blanc
Remoissenet Père et Fils 2015 Santenay Blanc
Remoissenet 2019 Côte de Nuits-Villages
Dark berries and ripe cherry lead, lifted by a restrained thread of spice. The palate combines generous fruit and density with polished, finely woven tannins, keeping the wine elegant despite its depth. A lively sense of freshness carries into a long, powerful finish. Serve with duck, roast poultry or mushroom dishes.
Springfield Estate 2016 Méthode Ancienne Cabernet Sauvignon
A concentrated Cabernet Sauvignon, opening with blackcurrant, ripe plum, violet and dark chocolate around warm spice and toasted cedar. The full-bodied palate remains composed, its dense fruit held by firm, finely shaped tannins and the measured influence of French barriques. Freshness and savoury detail carry the wine through a long finish with ample depth and quiet authority.
Moulin Touchais Coteaux du Layon 2002
Bright gold and wonderfully lively, with peach, papaya and melon layered over lemon zest, white flowers, honey, apricot and spiced orange peel. The palate is ripe and creamy but never heavy, its sweetness held in check by vivid acidity and a clean mineral line. Persistent and refreshing on the finish, it pairs beautifully with foie gras, blue cheese or almond tart.
Grosbois 2020 Clos Du Noyer Chinon
A succulent Chinon with wild herbs and wormwood alongside ripe red fruit and a light floral note. The tannins are finely handled, coating the palate with a texture reminiscent of cocoa powder without overwhelming the fruit. Savoury, satisfying and well balanced through the finish, it suits roast poultry, grilled pork, mushrooms or herb-led dishes.
Serge Mathieu NV Brut Prestige
Firm and energetic, with white peach, pear and lime framed by chalk, stone and a subtle beeswax note. Fine bubbles and bright acidity give the palate precision, while the Pinot Noir-led blend adds breadth beneath the citrus fruit. The finish is dry, mineral and persistent. Serve as an aperitif or with oysters, fried seafood or aged hard cheese.
