Selection
Bruno Paillard NV Rosé Première Cuvée Champagne
Copper-rose in colour, with fine bubbles and a vivid nose of redcurrant, sour cherry, wild strawberry and violet. A discreet lemon note brings lift. The palate is lively and chalky, capturing ripe red fruit without heaviness, then narrowing into a fresh, refined and gently saline finish. Excellent with sushi, cured ham or roast poultry.
Louis Jadot 2021 Puligny-Montrachet
Exotic flowers and citrus open a supple, softly textured white. Subtle acidity brings energy through the middle, while partial malolactic fermentation and measured barrel ageing add breadth without dulling the lively character. Polished and composed through the finish, it suits grilled fish, scallops or lobster with butter sauce.
Champagne Lancelot-Pienne NV Accord Majeur Extra Brut 1.5L (Magnum)
Ripe fruit and gentle spice lead, framed by a golden colour and sustained, delicate bubbles. The palate is full and balanced, with a creamy, generous core sharpened by freshness and tension. Spicy roasted notes emerge through the resonant finish, while four years of cellar ageing adds depth and harmony.
Charles Heidsieck 2012 Brut Millésimé Champagne
Gold in the glass with a fine, persistent mousse. Candied citrus, baked apple and white flowers lead into toasted brioche, roasted hazelnut and a touch of clear honey. The palate is broad and creamy yet held taut by lemony acidity and mineral freshness. A long, saline finish brings almond, smoke and quiet spice.
Don Fulano Añejo Tequila
Cooked agave leads a deep, composed aroma with cardamom, dried peach, roasted macadamia and clove. The palate is rich yet measured, carrying dried fruit and warm spice over a polished oak frame. Tobacco adds savoury depth while a light menthol note lifts the weight. The finish is long and fresh, leaving agave, toasted nuts, spice and gentle wood.
Laurent Ponsot 2017 Bourgogne Rouge Cuvée des Peupliers Magnum
Cherry, blackcurrant and blackberry open with pomegranate, peony and a gentle earthy edge. The palate is supple and finely textured, carrying pulpy red fruit through delicate tannins and bright freshness. A light savoury note appears with air, while the finish remains graceful, clean and quietly persistent. The larger format should benefit from time in a decanter; serve with roast chicken, duck, charcuterie or mushroom dishes.
Laurent Ponsot Bourgogne Blanc Cuvée du Perce-Neige Magnum
Hawthorn blossom, lemon and fresh pear lead into warmer notes of honeysuckle, brioche and toasted almond. The palate is fleshy yet lifted, with ripe orchard fruit balanced by a saline, finely drawn finish. Hints of marzipan and pineapple add breadth without making it heavy, while lively freshness keeps the texture poised. Serve slightly cool with roast fish, gougères, mushroom ravioli or vegetables baked with feta.
Cavallotto 2010 Barolo Riserva Vignolo 750 mL
Rose and violet rise over ripe black cherry, crushed raspberry, dried herbs and a mineral edge. The palate is concentrated and finely layered, with firm yet velvety tannins carrying anise, liquorice, tobacco and savoury earth. Its structure is powerful but precise, gradually opening to balsamic herbs and warm spice. The finish is long and persistent, balancing depth with classical Nebbiolo lift.
Piero Busso Gallina 2020 Barbaresco 750 mL
Clear ruby in colour, with cranberry, pomegranate and rosewood forming a vivid, finely drawn bouquet. The palate is juicy and energetic, its red-berry fruit carried by fresh acidity and finely woven tannins. A light saline note adds precision as the wine expands across the tongue. The structure is firm but polished, allowing the fruit to remain clear. It finishes long and savoury, with red berries, mineral detail and measured grip.
Paolo Bea Rosso de Véo 2015 Umbria Rosso 750 mL
Plum, black cherry and mixed bramble berries lead a concentrated, generous profile. Floral lift keeps the ripe fruit fresh, while earth, balsamic detail, espresso and dark spice add savoury complexity.

The finish remains lifted and persistent, carrying dark fruit, earth and spice.
Salicutti Piaggione 2019 Brunello di Montalcino 750 mL
Pomegranate, red cherry and cherry skin lead a vivid, finely layered bouquet. Violet, lavender and underbrush add lift, while fennel, cumin and balsamic herbs bring savoury depth. The palate is taut and energetic, with racy acidity and powdery tannins shaping the ripe fruit. Graphite and mineral detail build through the middle. Long and focused, it closes with red berries, herbs, spice and a measured dry grip.
Masi Mazzano 2015 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico 750 mL
Baked black cherry, dark plum and fig lead a powerful, mature bouquet. Wild berry compote, dried herbs and leather add savoury breadth, while mocha, dark chocolate and warm spice bring richness.

Egly-Ouriet NV Les Vignes de Vrigny Premier Cru Extra Brut Champagne 750 mL

Cavallotto 2019 Barolo Bricco Boschis
Earthy and smoky at first, opening into dark cherry, blood orange and dried fruit. Firm acidity and tightly knit tannins give the palate a powerful, classical frame, while concentrated fruit carries through the middle and into a focused, persistent finish. Still youthful and structured, this will reward decanting or further cellar time. Serve with braised beef, game, truffle dishes or aged cheese.
Mauro Sebaste 2016 Ghè Barolo Riserva DOCG
Intense ruby in the glass, with rose and violet opening onto spice, leather and tobacco. The palate is dry, powerful and persistent, supported by firm, well-judged tannins. Floral detail and savoury depth remain closely knit through a long, structured finish that shows both authority and measured restraint.
Conti Costanti 2019 Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 750 mL
Wild red berries lead with chestnut, sweet earth, anise and a touch of orange. The palate is sculpted and stately, combining firm structure with vivid acidity and a gracious, controlled flow. Savoury and earthy details bring depth without obscuring the fruit. The finish is long and resonant, returning to red berries, spice and a refined mineral tension.
Sebastiani Cherryblock 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon 750 mL
Crème de cassis, black cherry and baked plum open a deep, polished bouquet. Allspice, graphite, mint and toasted oak add savoury definition, with crushed walnut and liquorice emerging in the glass.

Balanced and velvety through the middle, it closes long and dry with blackcurrant, cedar, cocoa and a measured earthy note.
Vaudon XO Cognac
Violet and subtle fruit lead a delicate, composed aroma, followed by mango, walnut and candied orange peel.

Pair with duck, roast chicken, mushrooms or herb-roasted pork.
Inama 2003 Oracolo Veneto Rosso IGT

Rich fruit and savoury spice build through a polished finish, suggesting both depth and substantial ageing potential.
