Wine
Real Agrado 2020 Rioja Crianza
Antonio Scala 2022 Ciro Rosato
One of the most interesting pink wines we’ve come across. 100% Gaglioppo from 30 year old vineyard located in Cirò (Crotone district), with a south/south-east exposure – sand and clay soil. Juicy, spicy and ripe, it offers a delightful nose of red cherry, raspberry and aromatic herbs. Finishes long and mineral with a mouth-watering a sweet and sour tang.
An outstanding Rosato showcasing just how suited Gaglioppo is to making pink wines.
Antonio Scala 2022 Ciro Blanco
100% Greco, from a 2 hectare vineyard located in Cirò (Crotone district). Spicy, fresh aromas of peach, quince and honeysuckle hold much allure. The palate is white spice, salty, fresh and focused. This is an irresistible example of the native Greco grape.
"I think greco bianco (unrelated to Campania’s greco di Tufo) is potentially one of Italy’s best native grape varieties." - Ian d’Agata
Li Veli 2023 Torremossa Fiano
Lugny 2018 Cremant De Bourgogne
50% Chardonnay, 50% Pinot Noir. This exceptionally priced Burgundian sparkler offers a terrific chance to try a relatively rare commodity in our market. This Gold Medal-winning bubbly (Concours des Vins Burgondia) has suggestions of toasted bread and nuts on both the nose and palate, with tangy citrus and a hint of tea. Well-balanced, crisp and refreshing.
Cailleteau Bergeron 2020 Blaye Cotes de Bordeaux Prestige
Rousselle 2018 Cotes de Bourg
75% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Malbec, 2% Cabernet Franc.
A ripe, fleshy style delivers toasty spice and tobacco notes up front, followed by dark cocoa, crushed plum and blackberry fruit flavours. Creamy and concentrated on the palate with alluring dark fruit and a long, velvety finish. A graphite edge cuts underneath, adding length and definition.
Coquard 2019 Chiroubles 2019
100% Gamay from the Chiroubles appellation in Beaujolais. This is one of the smallest appellations and also one of the most elevated, with some vineyards rising over 450m above sea level.
The 2019 presents lovely purple florals and crisp red fruit. Imagine fresh picked cherry meets a lavender bloom. These aromas are folded into a soft bed of silky fine tannins. Enjoy this wine young or let it develop up to 2029.
Coquard 2019 Julienas ‘Jules Cesar’
Baumard 2022 ‘La Caleche’
Low yields, hand harvesting and farmed according to organic principles. 9 months in vats on fine lees.
Aromas of pears, lemons, peaches and honey with floral and mineral hints. Great tension on the palate, which is pure with persistence and incredible precision. An easy wine to drink with well-balanced acidity and great structure.
