Saladini Pilastro Falerio 2007 (Italy)

Price: £7.50

<font color = green > Château L'Hestrange Beaujolais Villages 2008 <br> (Beaujolais, France)

Château L'Hestrange Beaujolais Villages 2008
(Beaujolais, France)

 

Made at one of the highest estates in Burgundy the owner of this estate, Laurent Metge-Toppin (nick-named the ‘Mange-Tout’) has been described as “The flying wine-maker working in the clouds of Beaujolais.” If he was English he would also be politely described as ‘slightly eccentric’ as when not working on his own estate Laurent also consults at the Siam winery in Thailand where they harvest using both elephants and punt-like boats in the drainage ditches to carry grapes back to the winery for processing! In Thailand the current wine-vintage is 2553 as they use the Buddhist calendar.

A lovely silky, soft, fruit driven Beaujolais, with aromas of violets (and a hint of banana) and redfruit laden palate. Great served lightly chilled.

Price: £7.99

Chateau de l'Hestrange Bourgogne Chardonnay 2009
(Burgundy, France)

L'Hestrange respects the environment by promoting the use of natural fertiliser and keeping the use of weed killers to a minimum. Pruning and harvesting is done manually. In 2000 Laurent decided to plant on the east facing hills, vines of Chardonnay from Burgundy.The vines are situated between 450 to 550m high, on the steep hills facing South east and at the end of the summer they benefit from the hot days and cool nights which are perfect for maturation.

In Thailand the current wine-vintage is 2553 as they use the Buddhist calendar.

Made by rather more conventional methods this wine is left to ferment with its skins for three days before the now lightly tinted juice is separated from the colourful skins. This results in a delicately pale salmon -pink coloured rosé with blackberry and strawberry fruit aromas and more red berry and slightly plumy fruit on the palate. Best served chilled (8º-10º) as an aperitif. Unusually for a rose it will keep for a few years gaining a nice spicy roundness with time.

As well as being served as an aperitif the clean dry style and freshess of this wine and can be drunk with the local "cuisine lyonnaise" from the region it is made in (delicious but wickedly unhealthy cream and butter laden dishes) or some spicy oriental dishes.

Always one of the top selling wines at our Summer Wine Festival.

This sparkling wine is lively and elegant. Aromas of fresh fruit combine with the complexity and elegance of honey, white flowers and notes of yeast. A fresh palate, with good acidity, balanced and complex, this is an extremely elegant and delicate brut. To taste it is juicy, crispy, mineral and refreshing. An excellent choice for an aperitif.

<font color= green >Chateau Beauchene, Cotes du Rhone ,  Premier Terroir  2007<br> (Rhône, France)

Chateau Beauchene, Cotes du Rhone ," Premier Terroir" 2007
(Rhône, France)

 

From a vineyard immediately bordering the area of Chateauneuf-du-Pape's appellation, between the communes or Orange and Chateauneuf-du-Pape (all that separates this field and Chateauneuf-du-Pape is a main road.) Significantly it has the same Galet stones (large round potato sized pebbles) which give Chateauneuf its unique character as they absorb sunlight during the day and release heat at night bringing on the ripening of the grapes.

Beauchene isn't completely organic but practises "agriculture raisonnee", a philosophy of production that guarantees a top quality product whilst at the same time ensuring a better respect of the environment, through the use of traditional techniques; horse ploughing, hand harvesting and hand sorting by each grape-picker.

Deep ruby in colour with aromas of ripe red fruits and bilberries which continue as red fruit flavours on the palate that develop to hints of raspberries and blackcurrant.

A Silver Medal Winner at Decanter World Wine Awards May 2008 and Gold Medal at Concours General de Macon April 2008.

"It's a good idea to have a few bottles stashed away for unexpected guests. They need to be of reasonable quality, but there's no need to break the bank.

For reds, try the spicy, bitter cherry Châteauneuf-du-Pape-in-all-but -name 2007 Château Beauchêne Premier Terroir Côtes du Rhône..." Jonny Ray's Christmas Wine List (Telegraph)

<font color =  green >Ochoa Moscatel 2008 Organic 50cl <br>(Spain)</font>

Ochoa Moscatel 2008 Organic 50cl
(Spain)

 

Muscatel (Muscat) is one of the few grape varieties that actually makes a wine that tastes of grapes! These particular muscat grapes are so delicious that it has been noted that the rabbits that plague this vineyard pick on the Muscat, and will only eat the other grape varieties once the Muscat has been harvested! Quite light for a dessert wine it will match well with fruit tarts, meringue dishes and summer fruits.

Price: £12.99
