White Wine Not to be forgotten during Autumn/Winter these characterful whites have the fruit, complexity and in some cases ‘oaking’ to be enjoyed all year round. Some tried and tested gems in here as well as our whites hitting new heights with a Pessac Leognan in the range.
Dumanet Viognier 2016 Viognier A popular Christmas white… the depth of fruit flavours and body from this viognier make this a great winter white. 75cl

Chateau Les Mazes Cuvée Z 2015
Chateau Peyreblanque Graves 2014
Rousanne, Grenache Gris, Viognier
Muscadelle, Sauvignon Gris
The complexity of a fine red, but in white. Fruitful, oaky, 100% Organic, well worth exploring.
Zero Sauvignon Blanc and zero Semillion! A real talking point and one of our most impressive white wines.

Semillion, Sauvignon Blanc
Semillion, Sauvignon Blanc
Chardonnay The Vielle Vignes brings intensity of fruit, real depth and complexity. A well rounded white burgundy at a sensible price.
Bordeaux Gold Medal winning wine, there’s oak on the Semillon but not on the Sauvignon Blanc. A more classic choice of white Graves.
It’s caused a stir and it’s sold out twice. Who says you can’t sell Entre-Deux-Mers at £10 a bottle DPD?

The top cuvée from Ch. Mangot, wearing the family name with pride. An excellent wine perfectly at home with its Grand Cru Classé peers.

Merlot Brigitte and Eric were in Paris the night of the awful Paris terrorism attack. This wine is ‘to life’ and was born on that journey home. An immediately enjoyable wine.

Graves / Pessac Leognan Our go to area in Bordeaux for wines that offer excellent quality for their price whilst still expressing the Left Bank characteristics. A small selection but amongst it we have Top 100 Wine Merchant Magazine ‘Highly Recommended’, our stunning Ch. Peyreblanque and a step up in our ever popular Pessac Leognan.
Chateau Tour de Calens 2014
Chateau Peyreblanque Graves 2012 / 2014

Starting to come into its own, this 2014 Graves offers an excellent and affordable way into Left Bank Bordeaux.
Frazer’s (surprise) wine of Christmas 2016. Almost good enough to persuade him of the merits of left over right. Almost.

Pomerol / Lalande-de-Pomerol Despite their relatively small (geographical) size, we’ve always managed to discover real variety and excellent value in both Pomerol and Lalande-de-pomerol. From Modern Malbec dominated wines, to the excellent price/quality ratio of our two Lalande-de-Pomerols, to the Bio Dynamic jewels of Ch. Gombaude it all makes for one of our most exciting categories.
Cadet de Gombaude Pomerol 2011 Merlot, Cabernet Franc Organic second wine of Ch. Gombaude Gulliot. A Michelin Star Restaurant staple across Europe. 75cl

Chateau La Croix Bellevue Lalande-dePomerol 2011 / 2012
Pom N Roll Pomerol 2014 / 2015

Heavy on Malbec this wine is anything but what you would expect to be produced adjacent to Ch. Clinet. Olivier’s creation has stirred up the establishment. Bordeaux needn’t always be boring.
Jean-Louis Trocard now have their sales back in with their family (no negotiant here). ‘Highly Commended’ by the Wine Merchant magazine tells you all you need to know. 75cl
Clos Plince Pomerol 2012 Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon Here’s something special. A mixture of vines across one hectare, all various ages but some are over 70 years old. Probably our favourite wine from Olivier Techer. 75cl

Chateau Laborde Cuvée 1628 Lalande-de-Pomerol 2014 / 2012
Merlot, Cabernet Franc
Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon
Pomerol is thought of wines of two terraces; the top home to Petrus and the lower terrace home to hidden gems like Lafleur Grangeneuve.
Sales flew with vintages 09,10 and 11. 2012 was sold out and 2013 was not produced so we have sat on 2014 for 12 months and it is singing now - an unquestionably strong Christmas seller.

Perfectly suited for those willing to venture off the sweet wine beaten track. The risk will reap reward.
Young, but an excellently priced Sauternes from a strong producer from an already celebrated vintage.
Don’t be fooled by the modest vintage. Cooler conditions gave wonderful fresh citrus style Sauternes. It offers a little age too.
