  2019 Aroha Pinot Noir, Craggy Range

  £7500

  A savoury Pinot Noir with chanterelle mushroom and white truffle aromas leading to a lively, pure and beautifully balanced palate with a concentrated core of red fruit.

  Aroha, a term of endearment in the Māori language of New Zealand, carries the profound essence of love. In perfect alignment with its evocative namesake, Aroha is a labor of love, meticulously handcrafted from the union of two exceptional parcels of Pinot Noir, one of which is graced by the legendary Abel clone.

  These grapes are nurtured on the slopes of an elevated terrace within the Te Muna Road vineyard, where an ancient, long-dry riverbed once wove its course. In its wake, it left behind soil teeming with the richness and nutrients ideal for the cultivation of Pinot Noir. This terroir, imbued with history and character, serves as the cradle of Aroha’s distinct and captivating flavors.

  Craie Blanc de Blancs, Champagne Henri Giraud *Gift Box*

  £7500

  Crafted with precision and purity, Craie Blanc de Blancs from Champagne Henri Giraud is an elegant expression of Chardonnay.  “Craie,” meaning chalk, pays homage to the pure chalk soils of the Montagne de Reims, which impart an unmistakable minerality and tension to the wine.

  Vinified entirely in Argonne oak barrels, sourced and crafted under Henri Giraud’s strict sustainability and traceability standards, the wine undergoes fermentation and ageing on lees in these fine-grained barrels. This approach marries Chardonnay’s finesse with the nuanced influence of the forest, yielding a wine of both precision and depth. The lees ageing contributes texture, while the use of indigenous yeasts preserves the authenticity of its origin. As with all of Henri Giraud’s Champagnes, no stainless steel is used, emphasising a philosophy rooted in nature and tradition.

  In the glass, Craie Blanc de Blancs reveals a luminous pale gold hue with a fine, persistent mousse. The nose is pure and lifted, offering vibrant aromas of citrus zest, white flowers, crushed chalk, and delicate notes of fresh almond and brioche. On the palate, it is incisive and elegant, with flavours of lemon curd, white peach, and wet stone, underpinned by subtle oak spice and a saline edge. The texture is creamy yet tightly coiled, with racy acidity and a precise, mineral-driven finish that lingers with poise.

  2020 Chardonnay, Senses

  £7995

  A beautifully textured Chardonnay with bright crunchy fruit notes complemented by hints of honeysuckle, lime blossom and beeswax through to a gingery kick on the finish.

  2020 shows excellent concentration and very clean fruit, which makes for age-worthy Chardonnay with high acidity and ripe fruit characteristics.

  The grapes come from three different vineyards within the Russian River Valley AVA, but predominantly from Bush Vineyard, near Dutton Ranch where the clones are mainly Old Wente and Hyde. Renowned as being one of California’s coolest and foggiest AVAs, the microclimate creates the perfect conditions for producing highly acclaimed Chardonnay, with warm days and cool nights. The warm climate is tempered by the cool, coastal breezes and the trademark fog that lingers over the vineyards, brings moisture and has a cooling effect on the vines. The result is a long hang-time, during which the vines slowly build aromatic complexity, concentrated flavours, superbly balanced by natural, crisp freshness.

  Dame Jane Rose, Champagne Henri Giraud *Gift Box*

  £8850

  Dame Jane Rosé is a striking and elegant expression of Champagne Henri Giraud’s deep connection to Pinot Noir and its Aÿ Grand Cru terroir. Named in tribute to the traditional terracotta amphorae (known as “Dame-Jane” in French) used in its ageing, this rosé stands apart for its purity, texture, and unique approach to maturation.

  Sourced exclusively from the historic chalk and clay-rich vineyards of Aÿ, this cuvée is composed predominantly of Pinot Noir, with a small portion of Chardonnay. What makes Dame Jane truly singular is its vinification and ageing in terracotta amphorae, which allows the wine to breathe and evolve gently without imparting oak character. This natural micro-oxygenation enhances purity, amplifies minerality, and preserves the vibrancy of the fruit, resulting in a rosé Champagne that is both structured and ethereal.

  In the glass, Dame Jane Rosé reveals a delicate rose-gold hue with a refined and persistent mousse. The nose is expressive and graceful, with layered aromas of wild strawberries, red currants, blood orange, rose petals, and a touch of crushed herbs. On the palate, it is textured yet precise, delivering juicy red berry fruit, citrus zest, and a subtle spice note, all framed by a fine mineral backbone and a long, mouthwatering finish. Its balance of creamy mouthfeel and fresh acidity speaks to both craftsmanship and terroir.

  Dame Jane Rosé is a Champagne of rare character and charm – vibrant, refined, and exquisitely detailed. It is a tribute to ancient methods, Grand Cru provenance, and the elegance of Pinot Noir in its purest form.

This style is complemented by the use of 20% French oak and shorter maturation, alongside La Rioja Alta’s ultra-traditional methods such as racking by hand.
