CHAMPAGNEOne of the most northern wine producing regions in the world, Champagne is located 90 miles

north-east of Paris with 34,000 hectares of vines. Surrounding the Champagne hubs of Epernay and Reims, the region produces around a million bottles of Champagne a day.

A technique said to have been invented by Dom Pérignon in 1688, Champagne is made using the

traditional method, when a second fermentation is induced in the bottle, producing CO2 and resulting

in a sparkling wine. Champagne style wines are now replicated all over the world.

These premium wines are usually made from a blend of grapes: Chardonnay to add fruit and elegance;

the red grapes, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, for body and backbone.

Billecart-Salmon Brut Rosé

NV

93ptsWine Spectator

‘A lovely rosé in an almost vinous style, with mouthwatering acidity and a

fine, lacy mousse carrying appealing flavors of ripe raspberry, white cherry

fruit, star anise, mandarin orange peel and honeysuckle. Lightly chalky on the

lasting finish.’

Dom Péringnon2006

97ptsVinous

‘The 2006 Dom Perignon is a beautifully blanaced, harmonious Dom Perignon

that strikes an incredibly appealing stylistic middle ground. Rich, volumtous

and creamy, the 2006 shows off fabulous intensity in a style that brings

together the ripeness of 2002 with the great sense of verve and overall freshness that is such a signature of

the 2004.’

BILLECART-SALMONStill family run, the small house of Billecart-Salmon offers a range of black-grape dominated Champagnes with bright, complex fruit flavours resulting from a long, slow, cool fermentation process. Particularly well known for its elegant Rosé, Billecart-Salmon is a Champagne house for wine lovers: many who discover it drink few other Champagnes thereafter.

DOM PERIGNONDom Pérignon, owned by Moët & Chandon, is an exclusively vintage prestige cuvée Champagne. It is made from roughly equal quantities (varying slightly according to the vintage) of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, grown only in the best vineyard sites in Champagne. During production, the wine sees no oak and is protected from oxidation as much as possible making it one of Champagne’s most reductive, minerally styles with an overarching elegance, harmony and completeness. It is one of the most classic, famous, and eye-catching of all wines and consistently tastes as good as its reputation suggests it will.

Dom Pérignon Rosé 2004/5 €315.00

LAURENT-PERRIERChardonnay forms the core of most of Laurent-Perrier’s cuvées giving the wines a fresh, elegant style. The exception to this is their Cuvée Rosé, for which the house is best known. Made from 100% Pinot Noir, it is unusual in that it is made by the tricky ‘saignée’ method. This is the technique by which the pink colour is obtained through maceration of the skins rather than the addition of red wine (the way most rosé Champagnes are made) and gives Laurent-Perrier Rosé its remarkable flavour.

CHAMPAGNE SPARKLING

Sparkling wine is arguably the most technical style of wine in the world. Not only do these wines have to undergo a first fermentation in order to make alcohol, but also a second fermentation to produce the carbon dioxide giving the wine its fizz. Either made in the same way as Champagne,

where the second fermentation takes place in the bottle, or by using the tank method where it takes place in a sealed tank.

Produced all around the world, sparkling wine comes in a huge range of styles,

from bone dry to perfumed and floral.

Their philosophy and tagline is: “Cava with soul,” something sceptics might smirk at, at least until they taste them. All fruit is sourced from Penedes from organically cultivated vines and they concentrate upon Reserva and Gran Reserva only.” The Wine Advocate.

ALTA ALELLAOrganic grapes produce a dry base wine which is then fermented according to the traditional method, as used in Champagne. Aged a minimum of 15 months on its yeast lees to impart a delicate bready flavour and released without any dosage making it the refreshing ultra-brut style. Unusually, no sulphites or other products are added in the whole process.

Roederer is the largest owner of organically-farmed (and increasingly, biodynamically-farmed) vineyards in Champagne. The wines are distinguished by their superb balance, finesse and elegance and their fine, creamy mousse.

35,200 bottles produced.’



CHAMPAGNE

Rosé is produced in a variety of styles around the world, although perhaps the best known are those from Provence. Not only is this France’s oldest wine region, having

been making wine for over 2,600 years, but it is also the only one to focus on rosé.

It even has a research institute dedicated to the style. Dry, crisp and refreshing, these wines

are a blend of regional varieties such as Grenache, Carignan and Syrah.

Château d’Esclans Rock Angel Rosé

2015

91ptsVinous

‘Light orange. Ripe red berries, candied flowers and succulent herbs on the perfumed nose. Supple and fleshy,

offering juicy raspberry and tangerine flavors that spread out slowly on the

back half. Hefty, as pink wines go, but not at all lacking for vivacity. Finishes

long and juicy, repeating the floral and tangerine notes.’

Château Minuty Rosé et Or

2015

93ptsThe Wine Enthusiast

‘An ageworthy medley of red fruits and peach is sharpened by acidity and a peppery edge. It does have a lighter

touch with its poised crisp texture and its juicy aftertaste. However it will be

even better from the end of 2016.’

GRAMONAGramona is one of the very finest Cava producers of all, and this wine - aged for five whole years before release - is part of the reason why!.

FRANCE

France produces 7-8 billion bottles of wine every year, second only to Italy in terms of volume. A key part of French culture,

with 27 billion hectolitres being drunk in France annually, wine is produced throughout the country in every style.

France’s long-standing wine heritage gave birth to the appellation

system, designed to preserve regional wine styles, which has been

emulated all over Europe.

France is also the source of many international grape varieties such

as Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, Syrah, Sauvignon Blanc and

Chardonnay.

JOSE LUIS FERRERJosé Luis Ferrer started his winery in 1931 when viticulture on the island was in serious decline and practically all gone. Soon thereafter, the Spanish Civil War and the ensuing reign of Franco made commerce more challenging and tested Ferrer’s resolve. He refused to give in and continued to produce wine despite the odds. His hard work was rewarded in 1990 when the region was given DO status. Mallorca is now righty regarded as one of the greatest places in Spain to make wine.

FRANCE WHITE ALSACEProtected by the Vosges Mountains, Alsace is one of the driest regions in France and with its northern latitude also has very long hours of sunshine during the growing season, producing some of the world’s finest white wines.

The wines from Alsace are produced from noble varieties such as Riesling, Pinot Gris and

Gewurztraminer which uniquely for France must appear on the label. The best vineyard sites have

been given Grand Cru status.

Located between the centre and north of France, the Loire valley stretches 600 miles east to west and accounts for 8% of the country’s vineyards including the famous appellations of

Sancerre, Pouilly-Fumé, Muscadet and Vouvray. Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé are situated at the far eastern end of the Loire valley and arguably produce the world’s greatest expressions

of Sauvignon Blanc. Sancerre also produces high quality reds and rosés from Pinot Noir.

The Loire is considered to be France’s most diverse wine region given the different climates and soil

types such a large region offers, and as such, produces wines in every style.

BURGUNDY WHITE

Burgundy, or Bourgogne, is the source of the most majestic Grand Cru and Premier Cru wines in the world. The polar opposite of Bordeaux with its grand Châteaux, this is a complex region of small holders with over 3,000 vineyard owners. 15 million cases are produced annually from 100 different appellations spanning 26,000 hectares.

Reds made from Pinot Noir and whites from Chardonnay, these wines are not

only long lived, but also some of the most exceptional on the market.

The region is split into 5 sub-regions:

Chablis, Côte de Nuits, Côte de Beaune, Côte Chalonnaise and Mâconnais.

The most significant of these for the production of white wines are

Chablis, the Côte de Beaune and the Mâconnais.

BURGUNDY RED

COTE DE NUITSThe Côte de Nuits is a 20km stretch forming the northern part of the

Côte d’Or, Burgundy’s ‘golden slope’, and it is here that most of the world’s finest examples of Pinot Noir are produced.

Named after the region’s largest village, Nuits-Saint-Georges, 22 out of Burgundy’s 23 red

Grands Crus are located here, expressing a variety of styles. They tend to be weightier and

deeper coloured than the Pinots produced on the Côte de Beaune.

Gevrey-Chambertin, Vougeot and Nuits-Saints-Georges are known for their robust style of

wine, whilst Chambolle-Musigny and Vosne-Romanée display finesse and elegance.

COTE DE BEAUNEDespite the Côte de Beaune being well-known for its white wines,

there is actually more red wine produced in the region.

The Pinot Noirs from this southern half of the Côte d’Or show softness and finesse with the

best examples coming from Beaune, Pommard and Volnay as well as the exceptionally

powerful Grand Cru of Corton.

France’s most important wine region and the centre of the fine wine world, Bordeaux has 120,000 hectares under vine and produces over 900 million bottles a year.

With 57 different appellations and 10,000 producers,

Bordeaux is home to some of the world’s finest Châteaux,

producing long-lasting wines of exceptional quality.

BORDEAUX

88% of the production of Bordeaux is red wine, or Claret as it is known in the UK, made from Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot. Bordeaux is also the source of some of the world’s longest-lived sweet wines from

Sauternes and dry whites made from Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon.

The wines of Bordeaux were classified in 1855 with only 5 receiving first growth status - Château Lafite, Château Mouton

Rothschild, Château Latour, Château Margaux and Château Haut Brion. Those Châteaux that made it into any of the five tiers

of this classification will have Grand Cru Classé on the label.

Bordeaux

LEFT BANKMEDOCHome to many of the biggest names in

Bordeaux, the Médoc is the most famous red

wine region in the world and includes the

renowned appellations of St Estèphe, Pauillac,

St Julien and Margaux. Situated on the Left

Bank of the Gironde estuary, the best vineyard

sites are located on gravelly outcrops close

to the river. The Left Bank is well suited to the

production of Cabernet Sauvignon and the

wines produced here will generally have this

as the dominant grape in the blend.

ST ESTEPHEThis is the most northern of the important

communes of the Médoc. The wines here take

on a rustic style given the high proportion

of clay in the soil. As a result they can seem

austere in their youth, however they display

good acidity and colour and are exceptionally

long-lived.

PAUILLACConsidering that Pauillac is a small region

of only 23km², three of the five First Growth

Châteaux are located here – Château

Latour, Château Lafite and Château

Mouton Rothschild – with Grands Crus

Classés representing 84% of the rest of the

production. Fine, deep and gravelly soils

mean that the vine roots reach a greater

depth here than anywhere else in the Médoc.

The resulting wines are intense and display

great complexity.

ST JULIENSt Julien is the smallest of the well-known

Médoc communes at only 700ha with a

uniform style thanks to the gravelly soils.

Despite having no First Growth properties,

St Julien is considered to offer the most

consistent wines across the board, with

impressive offerings year after year.

MARGAUXThe largest commune in the Médoc, and

home to First Growth Château Margaux,

Margaux is famous for producing the

most elegant and alluring wines of the

Left Bank. With the lightest and most

gravelly soils in the Médoc, the finest

examples of Margaux are intensely

perfumed whilst also subtle and refined.

PESSAC-LEOGNAN/GRAVESPessac-Léognan was a new district

created in 1986 within Graves due to

pressure from the vignerons who wanted

to disassociate themselves from growers

further south where the soils were

much sandier. Pessac-Léognan is home

to Châteaux Haut Brion, the only First

Growth property outside of the Médoc.

RIGHT BANKPOMEROLPomerol is the smallest of the prestigious Bordeaux appellations

with around only 150 producers and 740 hectares of vineyards.

Demand and prices for these wines are high given that many of these

are boutique growers making circa 1,000 cases a year. Pomerol is

dominated by Merlot, producing rich and smooth wines. Château

Pétrus is considered to be one of the best producers in Pomerol.

ST EMILIONLocated on the right bank of the Dordogne, St Emilion is one of the

most important Bordeaux appellations in terms of both quality and

quantity. Merlot is the predominant grape variety and is perfectly

suited to the clay and chalk-rich soils here. Cabernet Franc and

Cabernet Sauvignon are also grown. Given the high proportion of

Merlot, these wines are much more approachable in youth than the

more astringent examples produced on the left bank.

Château Tour St Bonnet

CHATEAU CAMENSACThe Camensac vineyards are on a gravelly elevation in the commune of Saint-Laurent-Médoc, and the excellent drainage afforded by the deep, stony soil is augmented by a system of field drains. The various plots, all entitled to the Haut-Médoc appellation, are cared for on an individual basis. Attractive ripe cherry and blackcurrant fruit intermixed with hints of damp earth, spice and new wood from this charming Médoc property.

Food pairing suggestion A perfect match with Asian dishes and hearty fish courses such as tuna.

CHATEAU CANTEMERLEThis prestigious property in the Médoc is most noted for featuring a high percentage of Merlot, making for an approachable, forward wine style which is drinkable in relative youth. A Grand Cru (classed growth) in the prestigious 1855 classification, the wines are something of a steal in terms of value.

CHATEAU CHASSE-SPLEENThe unusual name of this property, undoubtedly the finest estate in Moulis, means (loosely) to chase away the blues, and how appropriate for such a great wine at a reasonable price. Had this property been considered for inclusion in the 1855 classification it surely would have been awarded high classed growth status, and would fetch vastly higher prices these days.

Château Chasse-Spleen Moulis 1995 €70.00



CHATEAU POUJEAUXThe wines from Château Poujeaux in Moulis are often amongst the finest value on offer from the Médoc. Cabernet Sauvignon (50%) with the balance a mixture of Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, this is a classically-styled Bordeaux. The vibrant flavours of cassis, damson and spice are intermingled with cedary oak and vanilla.

‘Dense purple, with classic notes of cedar and lead pencil shavings as well as gobs of black currants and licorice, the wine has a full-bodied mouthfeel

ripe and well-integrated.’

Château Laftie-Rothschild

1998


‘This opaque purple-colored 1998 is close to perfection. The spectacular

nose of lead pencil, smoky, mineral, and black currant fruit soars majestically

of Lafite’s character. The finish is sweet, super-rich, yet impeccably balanced

and long.’

Château Latour1990

100ptsWine Spectator

‘This is one of my favorite wines ever. Full-bodied, with layers of silky fruit and

masses of currant, mineral and berry character. Amazing. It’s a wine with

perfect structure, perfect strength. It’s 1961 Latour in modern clothes. It’s hard

not to drink it now.’

Château Mouton Rothschild

2005


‘Blessed with a sensational nose that comes racing out of the blocks with audacious scents of

black fruit, cedar, smoke and pencil box. There is a sense of bravura here, of aristocracy. The

palate is medium-bodied with sumptuous black fruit, perhaps beginning to soften in texture, one

or two years off its plateau.’

CHATEAU CALON-SEGUROnce part of the mighty Ségur estate, which at various times included Lafite and Mouton Rothschild, the Marquis de Ségur was very fond of Calon, and no account of Calon-Ségur is complete without reporting his assertion that “I make my wine at Lafite and Latour but my heart is in Calon”. Doubtless this is the reason why Calon-Ségur features a heart motif on its label, and throughout the exquisite château buildings.

CHATEAU LATOURLatour is considered one of the most powerful, dense Pauillacs to be found and it needs to age. A very high percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon (sometimes as much as 94%) lends the wine huge power and structure. Tasting notes include leather and spice, enhanced by intense blackcurrant fruit.

Château Latour 1er Cru Classé 1990 €1,090.00



CHATEAU LYNCH BAGESAlways something of a relative bargain, Lynch Bages was awarded a derisory Fifth Growth status in 1855, perhaps the greatest travesty in the whole classification, as the property regularly performs at ‘super second’ level. For many people, Lynch Bages epitomises the style of Pauillac with its cedary pencil shaving aromas and densely packed cassis fruit.

Château Lynch Bages 5ème Cru Classé 1989 €385.00



CHATEAU MOUTON ROTHSCHILDChâteau Mouton Rothschild is the only Château to achieve reclassification since1855 when the wines from Bordeaux were sorted into 5 tiers according to the prices they were fetching on the market at the time. This unique recategorisation took place in 1973 when Mouton Rothschild entered into the realm of the top five Châteaux (Premiers Grands Crus Classés). The bottles from this vineyard are famous not only for the powerful yet deceptively smooth wine inside, but also for the colourful labels brought out each year which are designed by a different artist for each vintage.

Château Giscours2010


‘The palate delivers, delivers and delivers brilliant delineation and poise,

Château Margaux2009


‘Abundant blueberry, cassis and acacia flower as well as hints of charcoal and

forest floor aromas that are almost Burgundian in their complexity are

generous and unusually approachable for such a young Margaux.’

Château Pétrus2000


‘Extremely full-bodied, with great fruit purity, an unmistakable note of

underbrush, black truffle, intense black cherries, licorice, and mulberry, the wine seems to show no evidence of

oak whatsoever. It has a sumptuous, unctuous texture, plenty of tannin, but

also vibrancy and brightness.’

Château Ausone1995


‘Flower and berry character, with hints of clove and black pepper. Full-bodied

and very rich, with decadent flavors. Oozes with ripe fruit. Goes on and on.

Fabulous.’

Château Cheval Blanc2010


‘Dense purple in color, and a bigger, richer wine than usual, this is one

Cheval Blanc that will probably need a decade of cellaring. I like the description from the estate’s

administrator, Pierre Lurton, who said it tasted like “liquid cashmere,” a perfect

expression, despite the wine’s structure and intensity.’

Château La Couspaude

2000


‘Serious wine. Loads of chocolate, raspberry and cherry character. Full-

bodied, with lots of vanilla and reduced raspberry flavors. Long and caressing.

Modern and exciting. Best Couspaude I have ever tasted.’

Château Figeac2009


‘Distinctive, with atypical (for St.-Emilion) force and drive to the black currant, roasted cedar and maduro

tobacco flavors, which are supported by a dense, loam-tinged structure. Terrific

roasted espresso, ganache and fig paste notes wait in reserve. Very muscular,

but with the cut for balance.’

CHATEAU LA COUSPAUDELa Couspaude is one of the most famous ‘garagiste’ properties in St Emilion, although in this case the wine is made at a château and not in a garage! The production is tiny, and the awards are coming thick and fast - this is truly a wine estate in the ascendancy offering wonderful examples of concentrated, Merlot dominated wines.

PETRUSProbably the greatest and certainly the most famous red wine in all of Bordeaux, and perhaps the world. Because of their extraordinarily rigorous selection (sometimes they only use 50% of the crop), Pétrus consistently make the best possible wine every vintage.

FRANCE

The northern Rhône contains some of the oldest vineyards in France producing elegant wines

made from Syrah which are both powerful and have the capacity to age. Hermitage and Côte-Rôtie

are the stars of the north, needing at least a decade to show at their best. St Joseph and Cornas

produce more accessible examples whilst Crozes-Hermitage offers great value for money.

The valley floor opens out in the southern Rhône, with vines planted low to the ground in goblet

formation to protect them from the strong mistral winds. The soils here are made up of round stones

from the ancient river bed, which retain the warmth of the day, helping to fully ripen the grapes of

the heat-loving Grenache. The best wine villages of the Côtes du Rhône have been given their

own appellation such as Gigondas and the well-known Châteauneuf-du-Pape.

Following the Rhône River from north to south, this southern

French wine region is 250 km in length with

200 communes producing wine in a wide range of styles.

Côte-Rôtie La Turque E. Guigal

2009


‘The 2009 Cote Rotie la Turque is a flamboyant and sexy Cote Rotie that’s

loaded with notions of smoked meats, blackberries, blackcurrants, beef blood

and espresso roast. Thick, unctuous, hugely concentrated and long, it’s a

heavenly wine.’

Gigondas M.Chapoutier

‘The Grenache-dominated 2015 Gigondas reveals a healthy ruby/purple

richness, sweet tannin and a great finish.’

‘Mont Redon made a full-bodied, supple, beautifully pure 2007

Chateauneuf du Pape. Giving up lots of spice, dried cranberries, raspberries, garrigue and hints of flowers, it has lots

of sweet fruit on the palate, no hard edges and polished tannin.’



ITALY

Home to more than 2000 grape varieties and some of the oldest wine

regions in the world, Italy produces more wine than any other country with the 2016

harvest reaching 48.8 million hectolitres. Italy has over 1 million vineyards under

cultivation, producing wines from almost every region, renowned worldwide for their

broad variety.

Each region has its own style

with the most significant in terms of

both quantity and quality being Piedmont,

Tuscany and Veneto.

Italy’s best-known grapes are

Sangiovese, Nebbiolo, Pinot Grigio,

Barbera and Montepulciano alongside

international varietals, in particular

Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot.

GERMANY & AUSTRIA

Germany has 102,000 hectares under vine and is the tenth largest wine producer in the world. Home to the world’s greatest Rieslings, white grapes make up 65% of all plantings.

The cool climate produces wines with incredible precision and focused fruit flavours balanced by finely tuned acidity.

Austrian wine recently came into its own following a wine scandal in 1985 which led to a complete

restructuring of the industry, making Austria one of the top countries in the world for production

standards. The wines display great elegance and acidity with delicate aromatics.

Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Kabinett Dr Loosen

2015


‘The 2015 Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Kabinett is clear and flinty on the nose

and delivers the typical ripe, lush and sensual fruit aromas of this famous

grand cru. Piquant and racy, but also lush and juicy on the palate, this is a

pure, fine and elegant but pretty sweet Kabinett.’

Grüner Veltliner Löss Jurtschitsch

PIEDMONTLocated in the north west of Italy, Piedmont has a continental

climate influenced by its proximity to both the Alps and the

Ligurian Apennines. Since Roman times, Piedmont has been

considered the fine wine capital of Italy and has the country’s

highest proportion of DOC and DOCG wines even though it only

accounts for 7% of its production.

Gavi DOCG is Piedmont’s best-known dry white wine made from

the Cortese grape grown around the town of Gavi itself. Whites

are also made from the indigenous Roero near the town of Arneis.

Nebbiolo is the king of red wine grapes in Piedmont and is

planted on all of the best sites. Nebbiolo, the variety behind

Barbaresco and Barolo, produces wines with pronounced aromas

of tar, roses and truffles which age fantastically needing at least

ten years before they come into their own.

Barbera and Dolcetto are grown around the towns of Asti and

Alba producing easier drinking styles that are more accessible

from a younger age.

BARBARESCOA third of the size of

neighbouring Barolo, and

50 years younger, Barbaresco

is renowned for producing

some of Italy’s finest wines.

Thanks largely to the efforts of

Angelo Gaja, the region has been

recognised for its real potential and it was

granted DOCG status is 1980.

BAROLOBarolo DOC was founded in 1966

and upgraded to DOCG status in

1980, which seems appropriate

given that this is not only Italy’s

most famous wine region, but is

also widely regarded to be its best.

Reds are made from 100% Nebbiolo

which capitalises on the long, warm

summers and the unique terroir, with

each village sitting upon its own hill

surrounded by vineyards.

TUSCANY Italy’s oldest wine region, Tuscany is also its 5th largest

producing the third highest amount of DOC/DOCG

quality wines despite only producing around 6% of the

country’s volume of wine. This is largely due to the region’s

poor soils which encourage producers to grow small yields

of high quality grapes.

Tuscany has a unique terrain with more than two thirds of

it being hilly which benefits the predominant grape variety,

Sangiovese, as it needs direct sunlight to ripen fully. Two of

Italy’s most famous wines are found in Tuscany – Chianti and

Brunello di Montalcino.

SUPER TUSCANThe term ‘Super Tuscan’ first emerged in the 1970s to describe

a new wave of wine being made outside of DOC/DOCG

regulations to a very high quality, and commanding high prices

to match. Many of these wines achieved a cult following and

as a result, the Italian classification system was

changed to give these DOC or DOCG

status. Some producers still prefer to

use IGP Toscana.

Since then the quantity has increased from the original 3,600 bottles and the Solaia vineyard now consists of 20ha. Solaia is only produced in the best vintages and truely reflects its terroir.

ITALY

Spain is the third largest producer of wines in the world with over a million acres under vine, more than any other country. Given the diversity of the country’s landscape and climates, and the fact that Spain is home to 60 regional DOs, it’s hardly surprising that it produces wines in a variety of styles.

From the fresh whites made from Albariño in Rías Baixas to top end

reds from Rioja and Ribera del Duero, there is a huge amount of exciting

wine available, offering fantastic value for money.

RIOJASpain’s most famous wine region, Rioja is situated in the north of the country

just south of the Cantabrian Mountains. The wines are normally a blend of grapes,

the majority being Tempranillo with some Garnacha and Graciano.

Traditional style Rioja is distinguished by long periods of barrel ageing, whereas the

modern style favours the fruit and freshness of Tempranillo. Rioja is only ever released

onto the market when it is ready to drink and as such, offers incredible value for money.

inviting aromas of fresh apple, citrus and mineral. It tastes of lemon-lime and

green apple, while a mineral quality carries onto the fresh and zesty finish.

Reserva2006


‘This is a dark, fully formed and impressive wine, one that’s 70%

Tempranillo and the rest Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Aromas of

mineral, spice, orange zest, bacon and black plum are integrated and lead to

a lively palate with flavors of raspberry, plum and herbal essence. Long and

spunky on the finish.’

Martúe Syrah2009


‘It has a boisterous, ripe, ostentatious bouquet with iodine-scented black

fruit. The palate is sweet and ripe on the entry with firm grip. Notes of

fruitcake, black currant, dark chocolate and tobacco inform the middle and

second half.’

Clos de l’Obac2008


‘It reveals a deeper color along with an inviting bouquet of pain grille, mineral, Asian spices, incense, blackberry, and

plum. Round and smooth on the palate, this is a surprisingly forward effort that

can be approached now, although it should easily last through 2020.’

Alvaro Palacios Finca Dofi

2013


‘2011 was not an easy act to follow as it produced what probably was the best

Dofí to date, yet the 2013 Finca Dofí is as good or even better! There are tannins, but the texture is completely different, more akin to a Barolo with earthiness that is coated by ripe fruit to create a

singular, unmistakable Priorat.’

CAMPO DE BORJABODEGAS ARAGONESASBodegas Aragonesas is the most famous name in Campo de Borja, in the hills around Zaragoza. Here the vineyards of old vines struggle to produce grapes against a backdrop of high altitude and an extremely arid climate. The consequence is incredible depth of flavours. The region has much history having produced wine since Roman times. Famously, the Borgia family who moved to Italy (and produced two Popes, amongst other claims to fame) originated in Borja, hence the name. These three red wines all capture the quality and heritage of the area.

PAGO DE LOS CAPELLANESIn the 13th and 14th centuries, a chapel existed in the nearby village of Pedrosa de Duero. The inhabitants of the village donated small parcels of land to the chaplains as a way to show their appreciation. The chaplains of Pedrosa came to have a sizeable landholding, but with the Mendizábal confiscation of 1855, the properties of the church and the clergy were given over to the Pedrosa city council. Despite this, the inhabitants of Pedrosa continued calling the area Pago de los Capellanes in honour of the chaplains.

AUSTRALIA REDLANGMEIL WINERYFamily owned and operated, Langmeil is the home of the Barossa and Australia’s oldest known surviving vineyard, planted to Shiraz in 1843, from where the iconic ‘Freedom 1843 Shiraz’ hails. Although it is only 20 vintages since the Lindner family re-established the abandoned winery, Langmeil has achieved considerable success and has been awarded five red stars in the James Halliday Australian Wine Companion for eleven consecutive years placing it in the top 10% of Australia’s premium producers.

PENFOLDS GRANGEGrange is Australia’s icon wine, and deservedly so. Richly textured, intensely concentrated and packed with fruit.

Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc has become synonymous with New Zealand and is now a brand in its own right. There is far more to the wine industry here than just Sauvignon

however - fantastic Pinot Noir from Central Otago, Syrah from Hawkes Bay and Chardonnay from Marlborough all displaying a purity of fruit unique to New Zealand.

Widely considered to be the most successful New World wine producer, largely due to building a brand around Shiraz, Australia produces wines in a large variety of styles.

Shiraz and Chardonnay make up 44% of total plantings, with increasing amounts of Cabernet Sauvignon and Pinot Noir being grown.

The wine regions vary hugely: from the Barossa, home to the oldest vines in Australia and producing top quality Shiraz; to Clare Valley, famous for some of the country’s richest Rieslings.

NEW ZEALAND

Shaw & Smith Sauvignon Blanc

2013


‘The 2013 Sauvignon Blanc is intensely scented of fresh grapefruit, lemon curd

and pineapple with a fragrant herbal undercurrent. Light-bodied with plenty

of zippy citrus and tropical flavors, it has a refreshing backbone of acidity

carrying the fruit to a long, steely finish.’

Langmeil The 1843 Freedom Shiraz

2012


‘The 2012 Shiraz 1843 Freedom is profoundly scented of crushed blackberries, black cherries and

mulberries with suggestions of cedar, spice box, black pepper and licorice. .’

Penfolds Grange2000


‘Its dense ruby/purple color is followed by a big, sweet nose of blackberries, cherries, chocolate, and earth. With

decent acidity, ripe, silky tannin, superb intensity, wonderful equilibrium, and a more open-knit, softer, accessible style

than usual.’

Cloudy Bay Chardonnay

2015


‘The 2015 Chardonnay offers delicate grapefruit, white peach and orange

blossom notes with hints of brioche, marzipan and honeysuckle. The medium-bodied palate is finely

constructed with plenty of freshness to support the savory and stone fruit

flavors, finishing with satisfying length.’

Felton Road Pinot Noir

2014


‘Notes of ripe black cherries and currants with touches of forest floor,

aniseed and rose petals. The medium-bodied palate delivers softly textured

red and black berry flavors with lovely poise and some earthiness coming

through on the finish.’

CHATEAU RIEUSSECRieussec has long been considered the second greatest property in Sauternes after Yquem and with masterful performances year in, year out, it is not hard to taste why. It is presented in the full, rich, fruity, caramel, marmalade and smokey style, and yet manages to retain a degree of lemon zest freshness.

CHATEAU D’YQUEMA Château which has now acquired legendary status, thanks to its history (it was established in the 1500s, and came top of the sweet-wine producing estates in the 1855 Classification) and for its finesse and concentration. It can last, if stored correctly, for up to a century. Made, as are all sweet Bordeaux wines, from Sémillon and aged for four years in oak barrels.

EMILIO LUSTAU“Emilio Lustau is one of the better internationally known names in the Sherry world, which is quite remarkable, as they have never been a very big operation.

BODEGAS HIDALGO - LA GITANAFrom the charming fishing village of Sanlúcar de Barrameda on the Andalucian coast, where the sea breezes encourage the growth of an added layer of the famous ‘flor’ yeast that imparts such a distinctive and delicate flavour to the Manzanilla as it ages. The Amontillado and Oloroso are rich but dry wines with intense flavours. The Pedro is a sticky raisin wine - just perfect for ice cream.

PORTTAYLOR’S“This house must certainly be the Latour of Portugal. Their ports are remarkably backward yet still impressive when young.

Emilio Lustau Manzanilla Papirusa

NV


‘The NV Manzanilla Papirusa from Sanlucar de Barrameda has an intense

straw color with a smoky nose of roasted nuts. The palate is dry and light,

with clean, pungent flavors, showing finesse and good length.’

Gonzalez Byass Tio Pepe Fino

NV


‘Round and nutty, with mild floral and honey hints up front. The formula for Tio Pepe calls for a salty, crisp flavor

profile with just enough complexity to thrust it into the upper echelon of finos.

Slight mushroom and iodine notes appear on the finish.’

Taylor’s Vintage Quinta de Vergellas

2005


‘Fruity, lacking the power of some vintages of Vargellas, but more than making up with richness, sweetness

and delicious violet perfumes. There is some cranberry jelly flavor, an edge of

dryness and firmness in the fruit, but it’s more about ripeness.’

Château Rieussec2009


‘It has a rich and powerful bouquet that overshadows the 2010, decadent ripe

quince, peach and dried honey scents, a dab of beeswax developing with time.

The palate is wonderfully balanced with botrytis-rich fruit, a multilayered and opulent Rieussec that somehow

maintains quite brilliant balance towards the minerally finish.’

Château D’Yquem2010


‘However, there is fine minerality on the nose and great transparency.

The palate is fresh and harmonious, with a fine bead of citrus fruit and a penetrating, spicy finish that offers

white peach and honeysuckle notes, yet does not possess anything close to the peacock’s tail of the magnificent 2009.’

Cambells Rutherglen Muscat

NV


‘Medium amber-brown colored, the NV Classic Rutherglen Muscat gives

pronounced notes of dark brown sugar, plum pudding, roasted walnuts and

raisin cake with a whiff of coffee. Very, very sweet, full and unctuous in the

mouth, it has crisp balancing acid and a very long treacle and nut finish.’
