Selection
Marisco 2023 The Ned Sauvignon Blanc
Gooseberry, citrus peel and white tropical fruit open with a lively herbal lift. The palate is juicy and expressive, combining mango and passion fruit with a clear mineral line and bright acidity. Fresh citrus and white flowers carry the long finish, making this an easy match for goat cheese, green vegetables or simply prepared seafood.
Mark Haisma 2023 Bourgogne Aligoté
Meyer lemon, nectarine and honeysuckle open with a cool, stony lift. The palate is refined and textural, carrying ripe citrus and orchard fruit through a clean mineral frame. There is enough breadth to feel generous, but the finish remains composed, precise and quietly energetic. A polished white for shellfish, roast chicken or firm Alpine cheese.
Mark Haisma La Croix des Champs 2009 Gevrey-Chambertin 750 mL
Ripe cherry and strawberry lead a generous, mature profile, with liquorice, beetroot and gentle vanilla adding depth. Savoury notes of meat, forest floor and cedar sit behind the fruit rather than dominating it. The palate is round and elegant, shaped by light tannins and a fine peppery edge. A touch of earthy root vegetable appears toward the close, followed by a composed, lightly astringent finish.
Markus Altenburger 2019 Neuburger betont.
Delicately cloudy orange-gold in the glass, with candied tangerine zest, fresh white tropical fruit and a touch of acacia honey. The palate is fine and mineral, balancing vivid acidity with a gently saline line and a long, composed finish. An expressive, textural white for roast squash, pork or firm cheeses.
Marques De Murrieta 2012/13 Dalmau Rioja
Powerful yet refined, with aromas of blackberry, plum and cassis layered with dark chocolate, spice and subtle mineral notes. Full-bodied and richly textured, the palate is balanced by fresh acidity and polished tannins, leading to a long, elegant finish. A modern and age-worthy expression of Rioja.
Marques de Murrieta Castillo Ygay Gran Reserva Especial 2010 Rioja
Exceptional and highly complex, showing layered aromas of black cherry, cassis and plum alongside dried flowers, cedar, tobacco and subtle balsamic and mineral notes. The palate is elegant yet powerful, with finely etched tannins, vibrant acidity and remarkable depth. Long ageing brings tertiary nuances of leather, spice and tea leaf, leading to a poised, endlessly persistent finish. A benchmark Rioja of outstanding finesse, structure and longevity.
Marrow Arancio Vermouth
Lush and fruit-led, with skin-contact Pinot Gris bringing ripe orchard fruit, gentle grip and an amber-toned depth. Lavender and chamomile add soft floral lift, while rhubarb root, yarrow, sweet cicely, bitter orange and kola nut build a layered herbal bitterness beneath measured sweetness. The finish is textured, fragrant and complex. Serve chilled over ice with a lemon slice, or use it to give a Negroni or spritz a distinctly botanical edge.
Martell Blue Swift Spirit
Banana and caramelized pear lead a generous, fruit-forward aroma, followed by vanilla, coconut and warm spice. The palate is full and smooth, with ginger and candied fruit giving lift to the sweeter notes. Toasted oak brings structure and a gently warming edge to the long finish. Serve neat, over a large cube, or in a spirit-forward cocktail.
Martin Ray 2021 Concrete Dutton Ranch Chardonnay Russian River Valley
Jonagold apple and Bartlett pear lead, with honeycomb, quince and a fresh squeeze of lemon adding detail. Bright acidity keeps the weighty mid-palate focused, while citrus and bergamot bring lift and aromatic clarity. Clean and linear through the finish, the Chardonnay balances ripe orchard fruit with freshness and a fine mineral edge.
Martin Woods 2021 Jessie James Vineyard Pinot Noir 750 mL
Sweet early-season strawberry, pomegranate and wild raspberry lead, followed by rose petals, pine bough and a quiet woodland note. The palate is bright and sappy, bringing black and red berry fruit together with black tea and layered earth. Fine tannins and crisp acidity give the wine a firm, graceful frame. The finish is focused and persistent, retaining floral lift, savoury detail and clear red-fruit energy.
Martin Woods 2021 Koosah Vineyard Chardonnay 750 mL
Yellow pear and honeyed apple open with white grapefruit, honeysuckle and a cool sea-breeze freshness. The palate is vivid and finely drawn, layering tangerine, lime zest and green apple over a stony mineral core. Cedary herbs and a light celery-seed savouriness bring detail through the middle. Juicy acidity keeps the texture bright and focused, leading to a long, clean finish with lingering citrus and orchard fruit.
Martin Woods 2021 Koosah Vineyard Pinot Noir 750 mL
Red berry compote and dark cherry lead, accented by dried herbs, tangerine peel and a measured note of leather. The palate is supple and sleek, with darker fruit giving the wine depth while vivid acidity keeps it lifted. Fine tannins and a polished texture hold the savoury detail in balance. The finish is persistent and energetic, carrying red fruit, citrus peel and gentle earthy spice.
Martin Woods 2021 Yamhill Valley Vineyard Chardonnay 750 mL
Grilled peach and yellow apple lead, joined by honeycomb, white flowers and a gentle note of ginger. The palate is deep and expressive, with ripe orchard fruit balanced by a clear mineral line and fresh, measured acidity. Hints of mushroom, pollen and candle smoke add savoury complexity without weighing down the fruit. The finish is long and composed, carrying white peach, sweet spice and a quiet saline edge.
Martin’s Lane 2016 Dehart Vineyard Pinot Noir (Magnum)
Ripe black cherry leads a rich, full-bodied palate, framed by savoury undertones and a fresh entry. The texture is polished and precise, with refined tannins carrying the wine toward a cool, spicy finish. Generous in scale yet composed in its details, it balances depth and presence with the lift and definition expected from Pinot Noir.
Martin’s Lane 2016 Fritzi’s Vineyard Riesling
Starfruit, pomelo, mango and guava form an expressive, ripe-fruited nose. The palate is fuller and rounder than a lean style, yet crisp acidity keeps the generous texture in balance. A tactile, gravelly mineral note builds through the middle and carries into a vibrant, powerful finish with excellent definition.
Martin’s Lane 2020 Naramata Ranch Vineyard Pinot Noir
A perfumed nose has matured toward earth, mushrooms, minerals and wet stone. Rich black cherry and liquorice remain at the core, gradually giving way to a more savoury, mineral expression across a long, persistent finish. Freshness keeps the developing layers in balance, making this Pinot Noir compelling now while retaining clear shape and energy.
Martin’s Lane 2020 Simes Vineyard Pinot Noir Mg
Martini & Rossi Extra Dry Vermouth 500 mL
Pale and highly aromatic, with citrus peel, dried herbs and delicate floral notes leading the nose. Ginger and a faint raspberry nuance add complexity, while a clear thread of bitterness keeps the palate crisp and composed. The finish is dry, clean and gently botanical. Serve thoroughly chilled with a lemon twist, lengthen with tonic, or use in a classic gin or vodka cocktail alongside olives, almonds or light seafood.
