Selection
Clos Cibonne 2022 Cuvée Tradition Rouge
Dark ruby in colour, with blackberry, blackcurrant and dried herbs supported by peppery spice. The palate is full-bodied and generous, yet mellow tannins keep the texture composed rather than heavy. A subtle coastal freshness lifts the dark fruit, while time in large cask brings savoury breadth to the finish. Serve with lamb, grilled mushrooms or slow-cooked beef.
Clos Cibonne 2024 Cuvee Tradition Tibouren Rose
Delicate strawberry and citrus open with a chalky mineral note. Bone dry and finely textured, the palate brings bright red fruit together with vibrant acidity and a subtle herbal edge. Saline minerality carries the clean, lingering finish, giving this structured rosé real presence at the table. Serve with grilled fish, Niçoise salad, scallops or goat cheese.
Champalou 2022 Vouvray Les Fondraux
Ripe Chenin Blanc fruit opens with gentle honeyed roundness, giving the palate concentration and fullness without heaviness. White-flower freshness and flinty minerality keep the sweetness precise, while a velvety texture carries cleanly into a brisk finish. Elegant and versatile, it works beautifully with pâté, mild curry or creamy cheeses.
Cantina Tollo 2024 Montepulciano d’Abruzzo
Black fruit, prune, liquorice and spice lead a generous, dry red with a distinctly savoury edge. Present acidity keeps the medium body in balance, while smooth texture carries the dark fruit through a clean, warming finish. Straightforward but composed, it is well suited to duck confit, grilled pork, pizza or tomato-rich pasta.
Pirramimma 2021 Petit Verdot
A delicate nose gives way to a full-bodied rush of dark berry fruit. The palate is bold and hearty, with concentrated flavour and a firm structural line that suits robust food. Richness drives the centre, while the grape's naturally assertive character gives the finish weight and persistence. A confident red for braised beef, grilled lamb or slow-cooked tomato dishes.
Chatelet 2018 Hautes Cotes De Nuits
A savoury red Burgundy with strawberry, red cherry, violet and a quiet thread of spice. The palate is medium-bodied and finely textured, with gentle tannins and refreshing acidity giving the fruit clarity and lift. It has the balance to drink well on its own, though roast poultry, mushroom dishes and simply prepared pork bring out its earthy, understated side.
Mulderbosch 2023 Chenin Blanc Stellenbosch
Green apple and white peach develop into pear and ripe melon, with a subtle savoury note beneath the fruit. Partial maturation in neutral wood adds breadth without obvious oak flavour. Fresh, textured and dry, the palate finishes with orchard fruit and a light mineral edge. Pair with roast chicken, seafood or creamy vegetable dishes.
Ricco Bambino 2017 Viognier
Golden-hued and full-bodied, with honeysuckle, orange blossom and jasmine opening into ripe apricot and white peach. Citrus zest keeps the creamy texture fresh, giving the palate balance without losing its generous feel. The finish is floral, rounded and quietly persistent. Serve well chilled with roast chicken, seared scallops, lightly spiced curries or creamy vegetable dishes.
Liberty Wines Shiners 2015 No Shiner Pinot Noir
Fresh red cherry leads, with a light touch of nutmeg and gently integrated oak adding warmth and shape.

A subtle savoury note brings balance to the clean finish, making this an inviting, relaxed red for the table.
Real Agrado 2024 Rioja Garnacha
Raspberry and red cherry open with bramble, boysenberry and violet, while a floral, herbal edge adds lift. Just below medium weight, the palate is fresh, restrained and savoury, with a fine dusty texture and a quiet touch of cola. The finish runs long and composed. Serve with tapas, grilled pork, lamb or charcuterie.
Les Deesses Muettes 2024 Chardonnay
Pale yellow with golden highlights, opening on fresh flowers and ripe exotic fruit. The palate is fleshy but composed, with rounded fruit held in balance by a clear line of freshness. Harmonious and approachable rather than overtly rich, it finishes clean and gently aromatic. Serve well chilled as an aperitif or with shellfish, grilled fish and simply dressed seafood.
Ricco Bambino Sparkling Rose
A playful sparkling rosé with fresh strawberry, raspberry and delicate floral notes. The palate balances fruity sweetness with crisp acidity, creating a refreshing, lively character and an easy finish. Keep the bottle well chilled and open it carefully, preferably over a sink, as this natural sparkling wine can be especially energetic when released.
Château des Gravières 2022 Graves Rouge
A lightly woody, toasted nose opens with prune and licorice. Fleshy and robust on the palate, the wine carries its depth with measured balance and a generous, structured feel. The finish is firm and long, keeping the profile classic and composed. Serve with roast beef, lamb shoulder, grilled mushrooms or a slow-cooked lentil dish.
Claude Lafond 2022 Pinot Noir
Fresh red fruit leads with sour cherry, red currant and blackcurrant, followed by cracked pepper and a light woodland note. The palate is harmonious and supple, carried by smooth tannins and bright acidity. Lightly perfumed and gently spicy, it finishes clean and fresh, with an elegant mineral undertone.
D’Esclans 2024 Whispering Angel Rosé
Pale and polished, with perfumed strawberry, raspberry and rose petal at the centre. The palate stays dry and silky, layering red berries with citrus freshness and a restrained touch of spice. Smooth texture gives the wine presence without weight, while the long, clean finish keeps it composed. Serve well chilled with shellfish, salads or light Mediterranean dishes.
Aydie 2019 Madiran Ode d’Aydie
Dark, concentrated fruit leads, framed by firm grip and a measured touch of oak. The palate is full and warmly structured, with the depth of a ripe vintage kept in check by clear, savoury tension. A persistent finish carries the fruit and tannic shape together. Serve with roast beef, duck or slow-cooked dishes.
Real Agrado 2024 Rioja Blanco
Tropical fruit, peach skin and orange blossom open with a quiet herbal accent. Fresh and crisp on the palate, the wine carries subtle citrus notes through balanced acidity and a clean, persistent finish. The profile is bright, precise and distinctly dry. Serve with grilled prawns, white fish, light salads or soft cheeses.
Guillaume Vrignaud 2023 Petit Chablis
Fresh citrus aromas set a clean, energetic tone, with ripe fruit adding gentle breadth. The palate is full-bodied yet lively, carrying its fruit with clarity and a crisp, composed finish. Straightforward and refreshing without feeling austere, it works equally well as an aperitif or alongside shellfish, grilled fish and lighter summer dishes.
Nicol Bouche Cidre Bretagne
A powerful nose of baked apple, honey and a hint of cinnamon. A beautiful bitterness on the palate without being excessive. This is a very sophisticated Summer cider!
It shows remarkable depth, the result of a slow, traditional method of fermentation lasting up to six months. Nicol’s bittersweet apples are the key to this fermentation, providing the perfect tannin-to-acid balance.
