White WineA rare magnum of Savigny Les Beaune ‘Dessus Les Gollardes’ from Pierre Guillemot.
The vineyard was planted in 1957. It is 30% Chardonnay and 70% Pinot Gouges, a rare strain of albino Pinot Noir discovered by the great Henri Gouges. In the 1930’s some of his Pinot Noir vines mutated from red to white grapes. Monsieur Gouges propagated these cuttings and distributed some to various vigneron friends.
A magnificent 3 bottle Gift Box
Located in Sauternes, on one of the greatest white wine terroirs in France, the Clos des Lunes is a magnificent rolling vineyard planted with old sémillon and sauvignon blanc vines. On very old vines, some perfectly golden clusters are chosen and delicately sorted grain by grain, by expert hands.
The wine is pale gold in the glass – which is rather apt considering the name! The nose is very expressive with fragrances of tangerine, lemon and grapefruit with wafts of fresh hay and chamomile. Together these aromas give a mouthwatering sensation. This leads into the racy palate that is complex, textural – preserved lemons, stone fruits and a delicious passion fruit taste. The finish is long luscious and minerally.
ABK6 Cognac is a modern, family-owned house with deep roots in the Grande Champagne region, the Premier Cru of Cognac. Founded by the Abécassis family, the estate is led by Elisabeth and Francis Abécassis, who are committed to a single-estate philosophy, cultivating, distilling, and ageing all their eaux-de-vie from their own vineyards. This complete control from vine to bottle allows ABK6 to craft Cognacs of exceptional purity, character, and finesse, blending traditional savoir-faire with a sleek, modern aesthetic that appeals to a new generation of spirits enthusiasts.
The ABK6 XO Family Cellar is the pinnacle of the estate’s collection, an extra-old Cognac blended exclusively from eaux-de-vie aged for a minimum of 10 years in French oak, and sourced entirely from the family’s private cellar. It is a bold yet elegant expression that embodies the richness and finesse of Grande Champagne’s chalky soils, renowned for producing long-lived, aromatic eaux-de-vie.
In the glass, this XO presents a deep amber hue with golden reflections, signalling maturity and complexity. The nose is opulent and inviting, offering layers of candied orange peel, dried fig, spiced plum, and toasted almond, lifted by notes of vanilla bean, leather, nutmeg, and subtle floral undertones. On the palate, it is silky and full-bodied, delivering a harmonious interplay of raisin, dark chocolate, baking spice, and honeyed oak, all wrapped in a velvety mouthfeel. The finish is long, warm, and luxuriously smooth, with echoes of rancio, the signature of well-aged Cognac, and a final flourish of dried fruit and sweet spice.
Pouilly Fumé and Sancerre are the global benchmarks for Sauvignon Blanc, and there is no bigger name or more highly regarded producer in the area than Domaine Didier Dagueneau. Now under the guidance of Didier’s talented son Louis-Benjamin, the wines still follow his ethos that authentic Pouilly Fumé requires healthy fruit from low yielding, old vines to produce the purest, and most intense and vibrantly fresh wine. That’s not to say these wines are typical of the appellation. Given the severely low yields and approach to élevage, Dagueneau wines emphasise a creamy texture rather than bracing acidity, and combine mineral flavours with exotic fruits to supreme effect.
Previously labelled as Blanc Fumé de Pouilly, now reborn as Blanc Etc… and looking better than ever. Generally speaking this is the most approachable wine in the range, and since Louis-Benjamin came aboard the wine is now far closer in quality and class to the other releases. While each of the other wine focus on a single soil type or terroir, Blanc etc… blends some young vine parcels on their Saint-Andelain hill with two parcels planted on flinty clay and limestone white clay soils nearby. It was fermented in a mix of new and three-four year old barrels and then matured in both wood and tank.

This white Hermitage is 100% Marsanne from 45 year old vines. The wine is aged on the fine lees for 18 months in oak barrels giving richness to the palate.
In the glass, it has wonderful golden colour with an intense and powerful nose. Toasted notes with fruity, floral and buttery nuances. The mouth is rich, wide and very long. The final is long with a beautiful mineral weft. This is a wine with great ageing potential
The Hermitage Appellation extends over the hills that dominate the City of Tain l’Hermitage on 136 Ha, on three municipalities of the Drôme: Tain l’Hermitage, Crozes-Hermitage and Larnage, on the left bank of the Rhône. The vineyard that this wine is made from is a very small old south facing vineyard that’s dates back to antiquity.
A Magnum of Rosé Solera Champagne, Champagne Palmer & Co
An irresistible rosé Champagne combining great precision, freshness and fullness with charming aromas of wild strawberries, red and black currants, along with beautiful hints of vanilla and cinnamon spice.
This rosé Champagne was produced using the solera method. Palmer & Co is one of the rare champagne houses to have adapted this well-known technique, often used for Spanish wines, for the creation of its champagnes. Each year, Palmer & Co adds red wines from the new harvest, which have been barrel-aged and typically amounts to 6-7%, to compensate for the wine drawn off. This perpetual reserve was started 40 years ago and is kept in stainless steel tanks. It forms an extraordinary library expressing a unique combination of red fruit and spice aromas and flavours. This rosé Champagne was then bottle-aged for two to three years on the lees, in the 18-metre- deep chalk cellars which imbues the wine with incredible complexity.
A rare cuvée, which is only produced every five to six years. It is an exceptional Champagne with sublime aromas of exotic fruits layered with cinnamon spice, dried fruit, candied zest, roasted hazelnuts and brioche. Complex, rich and intense, with a remarkable freshness and an exquisite finish.
This cuvée is produced exclusively from the Premier and Grand Crus of the Montagne de Reims. The two Premier Crus of Trépail and Villers-Marmery are highly reputed for their Chardonnays with citrus, mineral, and floral notes. The Grand Crus of Verzenay and Mailly are located at the heart of Pinot Noir terroir and produce wines with rich aromas of red fruits, spices, and saline undertones. The Premier Crus of Ludes, Chigny- les-Roses, and Rilly-la-Montagne add structure and freshness to the Pinot Noir.
Clos de Vougeot is one of the most famous grand cru vineyards in Burgundy and produces exceptional quality wines full of complex layers of flavour. This 2014 Grand Cru is a rich dark garnet colour in the glass. This wine offers powerful and concentrated black fruit aromas with an elegant touch of oak. On the palate, flavours of black cherry blackberry fruits are complimented by subtle warm spice and move onto a long lingering finish.
Awarded 95 points and a rare Outstanding status by Decanter in the 2016 Decanter World Wine Awards.

Now under the guidance of Didier’s talented son Louis-Benjamin, the wines still follow his ethos that authentic Pouilly Fumé requires healthy fruit from low yielding, old vines to produce the purest, and most intense and vibrantly fresh wine.

Pur Sang is a superstar in the Dagueneau cellar, and is widely considered one of the great white wines of the world.
Pur Sang translates as thoroughbred, this wine coming from a densely planted, 30-year-old vineyard called La Folie, five kilometres north of Saint-Andélain. Hidden between two parcels of woodland, the vineyard – whose name literally translates as `madness` – is named for the local farmers who thought Didier Dagueneau was crazy when he purchased the land, which was not a vineyard and was full of huge boulders. It was not even registered as part of the Pouilly-Fumé appellation. But Didier had done his homework, as not only was La Folie an historical Pouilly vineyard, but its vein of pure flint, as well as its gently sloping, south/south-east exposure, made it potentially one of Pouilly’s finest. Very pale colour, aromas recall grilled pink grapefruit with a hint of white peach – beautifully expressive. Palate is full, having a rich, floral, complex, aromatic core, creamy texture, and a satisfyingly long finish.
Time is integral to all exceptional wine, but it is the critical component in Henri Giraud’s PR 90-19. Drawing inspiration from philosophy and physics, the “Perpetual Reserve” is a voyage through Henri Giraud’s vintage history.
The imagery on the bottle offers a metaphysical nod to the role of time in every aspect of this wine. The design features a stylised equation symbolising the compression of time and space, representing the span of vintages and spatial distances captured in this single cuvée.
100% solera-based, PR 90-20 is an 80% Pinot Noir and 20% Chardonnay blend. 1/3 Grand Cru reserve wine from the solera started in 1990, which is designated for Giraud’s MV Fût de Chène, and 2/3 would be from an older “Esprit Nature” solera dating to the 1950s.
In the glass, PR 90-20 from Champagne Henri Giraud reveals a luminous golden hue with fine, persistent bubbles. The nose is expressive and complex, unfolding layers of grapefruit zest, ripe pear, white flowers, and toasted brioche, interwoven with subtle hints of spice, chalk, and orange peel. On the palate, the wine is impeccably balanced, rich and vinous, yet precise and energetic with flavours of candied citrus, green apple, and delicate pastry notes. The signature chalky minerality of Aÿ’s Grand Cru terroir is complemented by the elegant integration of Argonne oak, adding texture and depth without overshadowing the fruit. A creamy mousse and refined acidity lead to a long, focused finish with lingering notes of clove, citrus oil, and fine salinity. This is a Champagne of poise and power, showcasing the meticulous craftsmanship and terroir-driven philosophy of Henri Giraud.
Domaine Jérôme Chézeaux is a respected, family-run estate based in Nuits-Saint-Georges, at the core of Burgundy’s Côte de Nuits. Since taking over from his father in the 1990s, Jérôme Chézeaux has quietly built a reputation for crafting Pinot Noir that is both traditionally styled and transparently expressive of terroir. The domaine’s vineyards span several of the Côte’s most prestigious appellations, including holdings in Vosne-Romanée, Nuits-Saint-Georges, and Clos de Vougeot, all farmed with sustainable methods and vinified with minimal intervention to capture purity and site specificity.
The 2020 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru ‘Les Suchots’ is sourced from one of the appellation’s most esteemed Premier Cru vineyards, perfectly positioned between Richebourg and Romanée-Saint-Vivant. This parcel combines the elegance of the grands crus with a structure and intensity that speaks to its noble pedigree.
In the glass, the wine offers a seductive bouquet of wild raspberry, black cherry, rose petals, and exotic spice. Beneath the fruit lies a complex layer of sandalwood, forest floor, and crushed stone, characteristic of Vosne’s layered terroir. The palate is silky and seamless, with fine-grained tannins framing a core of red and black fruits, and a mineral tension that carries through a long, refined finish.
Poised and age-worthy, the 2020 ‘Les Suchots’ is a wine of power and finesse, embodying both the classic depth of Vosne-Romanée and the subtle, terroir-driven elegance for which Jérôme Chézeaux is known. A true collector’s wine, it will reward careful cellaring for 10–15 years and beyond, yet shows beautifully even in its relative youth with decanting.

In the glass, it glows with a deep amber hue and golden highlights. The nose is intensely aromatic and regal, revealing rich layers of dried fig, orange marmalade, vanilla, cinnamon, and roasted walnut, followed by delicate floral hints and fine oak spice. On the palate, it is velvety, full-bodied, and remarkably smooth, unfolding with notes of praline, baked apple, toffee, candied citrus peel, and nutmeg. A beautiful rancio character emerges mid-palate, adding depth and complexity. The finish is long, warm, and luxuriously textured, with echoes of leather, dark honey, and sweet spice.
