  2020 Estate Riesling, Frankland Estate

  £1895

  Another fabulous vintage of Franklin Estates Riesling.  The wine leaps out of the glass with perfumed white citrus florals, spice and grapefruit. A real generosity and poise on the palate. Ripe juicy limes upfront, with a crisp acidity that carries the fruit all the way into a long saline, mineral finish. Elegant yet powerful, it builds layers in the mouth as the wine opens up. Consistent with the now well-established Isolation Ridge style this wine reflects both the low-yielding, dry growing conditions of this site. The balance of pristine fruit flavours and defining acidity result in an exceptional wine that can be enjoyed now or cellared with confidence, as it will continue to develop further complexity for many years to come.

  2023 Vermentino ‘La Pettegola’, Banfi

  £1895

  La Pettegola’s translation has a double meaning. The first representing the name of coastal sea birds, and the second meaning, the gossiper. Think of the sweet little old ladies in the square chatting about the goings-on of town.

  The wine itself is straw yellow in colour, with intense citrus and yellow peach hints accompanied by floral and sage notes. The full structure is well balanced by the freshness leading to a persistent and fruity finish on the palate.

  2019 Cap Classique Brut, Lomond Wines

  £2250 Original price was: £2250.£1895Current price is: £1895. 16% saving

  A crisp and refreshing Cap Classique with notes of white pear and delicate floral hints through to a rich, elegant and creamy palate with refined bubbles layered with zesty freshness.

  The Pinot Noir grapes come from a single vineyard planted in south westerly facing blocks on the upper reaches of the farm in sandy, gravelly and highly weathered soils, with a clay substructure. This aspect ensures that these vines are cooled during the summer months by the prevailing winds from the sea. The breezes blow directly off the ocean in both a south-easterly and south-westerly direction, providing consistent coolness throughout the summer months, with temperatures seldom reaching above 30°C. The Chardonnay component comes from a selected block grown in gravel soils, which allows good drainage and produces grapes with a fresh, elegant profile. This cool microclimate creates a slow ripening period, allowing the grapes to build flavour complexity and produce naturally balanced wines.

  2023 Noble Riesling ‘Godfreys Creek Reserve’, Saint Clair, 375ml

  £1950

  Saint Clair Godfrey’s Creek Noble Reserve Riesling is a deliciously complex dessert wine, with a bouquet of clover honey, cinnamon and beeswax. Luscious and silky on the palate with rich orange, apricot and cocoa notes leading to a long, smooth finish.

  The fruit for Godfrey’s Creek is grown in the heart of the Marlborough Valley. The vineyard is situated on the Wairau Valley floor, where it experiences early morning dew and light afternoon breezes; a successful combination in the production of Noble Riesling. Select grape bunches were left to hang on the vine until late in the season, promoting raisining and botrytis. The grapes were hand-harvested once the desired level of sugar had been reached. This wine is only made in vintages when the season facilitates the extra hanging time required for the growth of botrytis on the grapes. The vineyard is cultivated according to sustainable practices and is accredited to Sustainable Winegrowing New Zealand.

  2020 Cabernet Sauvignon, Tahbilk

  £1950

  In the glass, this wine offers up red to black currant scents infused with black olive and dried herbs followed by some earthy tobacco and stalky cedar notes. Medium-bodied the palate has an even spread of blackcurrant and liquorice fruit underscored by toasty cedar, earth, subtle black olive and spicy dried herbs. Fine-grained tannins with a lingering conclusion. Matured in large and small oak barrels

  Tahbilk’s vineyards are grouped along the banks of the Goulburn River, a branch of it which flows through the estate. The vines are grown at around 134 metres elevation of gently undulating and flat terrain. The soils are sandy loam with ferric oxide content, which varies from very fine sand near the anabranch to denser loams on the plains. Tahbilk has Shiraz vineyards dating back from the 1860s to the 1990s. The oldest surviving block is the ‘1860 block’; planted on its own roots in sandy soils, which has made it impossible for phylloxera to colonise the vine roots.

  2023 Sauvignon Blanc Reserve, Cape Point Vineyards

  £2495 Original price was: £2495.£1995Current price is: £1995. 20% saving

  An elegant Sauvignon Blanc with aromas of floral spice, cardamom and white pepper. Richly textured with generous notes of citrus and ripe nectarine through to the characteristic, lengthy mineral edge on the finish.

  The estate is positioned on the narrow Cape Peninsula, where the confluence of sea breezes from the cold Atlantic Ocean, less than one mile away, and the southeasterly breezes from False Bay, create ideal conditions for the slow ripening of grapes. The grapes for this wine are hand-selected from three sea-facing vineyard parcels in the mid-levels of the estate, where a combination of the fresh breezes and decomposed granite soils result in a wine with a distinct mineral edge. The breezes, along with good canopy management, help to keep the vines healthy and diseases at bay, reducing the need for treatments. When the winds are strong, they also control the vine’s vigour and encourage a second suckering. The topography of the Noordhoek amphitheatre is also influential. It was carved from the Silvermine mountain over time, and as a result the soils of the estate vineyards are rich with decomposed granite, limestone and kaolin, imbuing the wines with their signature mineral quality.
