Introduction to Fine Wine

There’s a reason this claret has been a Society favourite for decades, and the 2019 is superb: proper Médoc finesse, ripe yet fresh fruit and balance.

Ripe yet firm Chablis, broad and fresh. An unoaked blend from three excellent village vineyards, Pargues, Cartes and Bas de Chapelot.

From the same slopes that makes the Granites wine but from younger vines and different parts of the slope, this full of juicy fruit. The flavours are of ripe, juicy cherry and black olive with a lot of finesse. Ideal for early to mid-term drinking.

From a high-altitude vineyard in the heart of Classico country, this is fine and elegant with enchanting aromas of ripe red plum and cherry, leather, and dried spices. The palate shows a beautiful balance of fruit richness and finesse, with well-integrated, silky tannins and a juicy acidity. This finishes long and mineral.

A powerful yet classy reserva from the Muga family, with pristine, ripe fruit and softly rounded tannins. The 2022 is balanced and complex, capturing all the hallmarks of a fine Rioja, with plenty of sweet spice, and succulent dark-berry fruit. Based in the old railway quarter of Haro, Muga is a fine old bodega, with its own cooperage. Indeed we believe Muga is making some of the very best Rioja available today.

Sourced from vines entirely from the kimmeridgian marl soils from the cool 2024 vintage this is distinctly pure, flinty, and lightly aromatic – basically textbook Pouilly-Fumé. Part of the Jeannot family for over 200 years it's now run by Bertrand and his son Alexis (the 7th and 8th generation respectively) and they continue to produce mouthwatering yet affordable wines.
