This straw-coloured Pinot Grigio is rich and round with distinct floral notes on the nose. On the palate it shows honeyed, nutty flavours balanced by crisp, lemony acidity. Good weight and texture sets this apart from the majority of other Pinot Grigio's.

Crisp and clean, highly refreshing with gooseberry and grapefruit, flavours.

100% Cortese from Piemonte. Crisp, spicy and with a nice mineral edge - a steal of Gavi and a perfect antidote to insipid pinot grigio!

A suprisingly complex but easy drinking Chardonnay with plenty of typical melon and peach fruit flavours as well as pleasing fruit acidity and a nice, long finish.

This wine is very old world in style, reminiscent of northern rhone with savoury earthy character but good freshness and structure and a good dollop of spice and pepper. This wine needs to food but is a refreshing difference in style from Chile.

An expertly made white Rioja! The oaking has made this richer and fuller with a creamy vanilla edge to the rounded, fresh fruit.

This wine is from Nelson on the opposite tip of the South Island to Marlborough. Fresh grass, herb and gooseberry matched by a refreshing underlying acidity in the typical full and upfront New Zealand style.
|
|
Everything you expect from the “terra rossa” soils of Coonawarra. Deep, dark concentrated Cabernet showing bundles of blackcurrant and cassis fruit with an underlying eucalyptus character.
|
|
An unusual blend of 50% Rousanne, 25% Vermintino & 25% Bourboulenc producing a rich full flavoured wine which will match a variety of foods with stronger flavours.

Single varietal Roussanne is not a common wine but this is a tribute to good wine making. Showing the kind of weight you might expect from this southern rhone grape together with the creamy ripe melon character it still has wonderful freshness and amazing balance. Enjoy with scalops and foods involving rich creamy sauces.

Top quality organic merlot showing wonderful ripe cherry & plum fruit and fine tannins with refreshing acidity.

Made from the "Godello" grape in the Galicia region of spain. Light straw in colour, this wine has ripe stone-fruit flavours, a nice mouth-feel and a lovely crisp acidity. Nicely versitle it would match a wide range of foods, from seafood to chicken or lighter meats. Think Viognier with a bit more weight.

From the iconic Mas De Dumas Gassac comes this amazing little white. Despite its modest price this great blend of Marsanne and Viognier really shows real class and structure.
|
|
Bold tropical friut aromas.Notes of sweet lychee and spice on the palate. Would be a perfect match for Green curries and other asian foods
|
|
About the only thing I'm ever likely to afford from lake Garda- a real juicy livewire bursting with fresh cherry fruits. If you like Valpolicella, you'll love this.

From an Englishman producing wonderful wine near Provence in southern France, comes this wonderful light/medium bodied red that has hints of savoury red berry & red currant fruit with a slight spicyness on the palate. Amazingly silky and smooth with great balance & length of finish!
