Halves Mixed Case

With intense and vibrant black-fruit perfume, this is a classic Beaujolais-Villages with good balance and a ripe yet fresh palate. A versatile wine that tastes particularly good slightly chilled. Beaujolais has always been an ideal bistro wine and goes brilliantly with a wide variety of dishes, from charcuterie to fish, fowl and roasted vegetables.

Produced for us from nero d'Avola grapes grown in the Ragusa and Agrigento regions of Sicily. Here the Mediterranean climate, tempered by a cooling coastal breeze, produces full-bodied red wines. Partly aged in French-oak barrels, this juicy raspberry and cherry-scented wine has a rounded, spicy finish.

Delightful expression of Loire cabernet franc to serve on the cooler side, pure and light on nose and palate, with succulent red fruit and a smooth finish.

2024 was a cooler year. This has an attractive melony flavoured palate with a fresh finish. The grapes are cool fermented in stainless-steel tanks and kept on their fine yeast lees for added complexity.

Crisp and refreshing in the new vintage, with Muscadet's typical saline note that makes it such a good match for seafood and especially shellfish. This wine has been sourced for nearly 40 years from the impeccable family firm of Chéreau-Carré. Just before the river Loire spills into the Atlantic, it is joined by the Sèvre and Maine rivers. The vineyards around their confluence produce the best Muscadet, whose distinctive tangy flavour is enhanced by prolonged contact with the yeast lees produced during fermentation (sur Lie).

A smooth, rich and oaky Rioja, made in the traditional style from 100% tempranillo aged in American and French oak for over two years (meaning it could qualify as a reserva). The fruit comes from vineyards in Rioja's Alavesa region which is renowned for the quality of tempranillo.

Merlot-based fruity and unoaked claret supplied for over a quarter of a century by family-owned Maison Sichel. Deliciously ripe and appealing with supple texture and a fresh finish.

Rocco Pasetti was an early champion of the excellent white pecorino grape, and he's now an expert. With green-apple scent and lemon-rind and mineral notes on the linear, refreshing palate, this pairs well with fresh salads, seafood or herb-roasted chicken.

This mouthwatering Bordeaux blend of sauvignon blanc and semillon has a touch of muscadelle for added character and depth of flavour. A refreshing and consistent performer year after year, made by the Despagne family.

A fine and refreshing white from Gascony made from a blend of grape varieties that includes chenin and gros manseng for touches of tropical fruit and a flash of mouthwatering citrus.

A blend of grenache blanc, roussanne, viognier, clairette and bourboulenc, this white Rhône is made by a highly regarded grower, Chapoutier, producing high-quality wines with incredible consistency. An accessible wine with lots of freshness and energy. Expect blossom, white peach with white pepper spice. It pairs well with roast chicken, Asian spices or enjoyed solo.
