  Demi-Sec La Réserve, Champagne, Palmer & Co

  £5200

  A Demi-Sec style Champagne is luscious and fresh, offering a true explosion of fruity apricot and pear, combined with tropical touches of mango, caramelised pineapple and nuances of zesty pink grapefruit.

  The grands terroirs of the Montagne de Reims are central to Champagne Palmer & Co’s wine philosophy, encompassing over 200 hectares across seven iconic crus, all facing north.

The Grand Crus of Verzenay and Mailly are located at the heart of Pinot Noir terroir and produce wine with rich aromas of red fruits, spices, and saline undertones. The Premier Crus of Ludes, Chignyles-Roses, and Rilly-la-Montagne add structure and freshness to both Pinot Noirs and Meuniers.

  2020 Aloxe-Corton Vielles Vignes, Domaine Edmond Cornu

  £5200

  The 2020 Aloxe-Corton Vieilles Vignes from Domaine Edmond Cornu & Fils is a bold and expressive Pinot Noir that captures the essence of Burgundy’s northern Côte de Beaune. Nestled in the village of Ladoix-Serrigny, Domaine Edmond Cornu & Fils is a family-run estate with deep roots in the region, known for producing traditionally styled, terroir-driven wines across several revered appellations. Now led by Pierre Cornu, the domaine is celebrated for its sustainable vineyard practices, old-vine holdings, and commitment to classic Burgundian craftsmanship.

  Sourced from vines aged 40 to 60 years in prestigious parcels such as Les Cras, Les Brunettes et Planchots, and Les Morais, the 2020 Aloxe-Corton Vieilles Vignes offers a striking combination of power and refinement.

  In the glass, it reveals a deep ruby hue and a brooding aromatic profile of ripe black cherry, crushed blackberry, and dried violet, underpinned by earthy undertones of forest floor, leather, and a touch of roasted spice. The palate is full-bodied and structured, with dense dark fruit, firm but well-integrated tannins, and a rustic minerality that speaks to its silex and marl-rich soils. A tangy edge and vibrant acidity provide lift and balance, leading to a long, savoury finish.

  This Aloxe-Corton will pair beautifully with game, roasted meats, and mature cheeses, and it promises excellent ageing potential for those patient enough to cellar it.

  2023 The Chocolate Block, Boekenhoutskloof – MAGNUM

  £5500

  A Magnum of South Africa’s cult wine

  The 2023 vintage of The Chocolate Block continues to build on its legacy as one of South Africa’s most iconic and sought-after red blends. Crafted predominantly from Syrah, with carefully selected additions of Grenache, Cinsault, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Viognier (blend proportions vary annually), this cult-status wine showcases Boekenhoutskloof’s mastery in balancing innovation and consistency. Only 4,043 barrels were produced, further enhancing its rarity and appeal.

  In the glass, the wine opens with an intensely aromatic bouquet of blackberries, blueberries, and ripe bramble fruit, intertwined with black olive tapenade, crushed violets, and a dusting of white pepper and coriander seed. The palate is rich yet polished, delivering layers of dark berry fruit, red liquorice, and cherry compote, underscored by hints of cherry tobacco and exotic spice.

  Despite its medium to full body, the wine remains elegant and focused, with vibrant acidity and silky tannins that glide across the palate. The finish is long, dry, and laced with a touch of savoury complexity, reflecting both the terroir and meticulous craftsmanship behind the blend.

  A compelling, age-worthy red that drinks beautifully now but will reward cellaring over the next 5–8 years. Ideal with flame-grilled meats, game dishes, or rich Mediterranean fare.

  2019 Lota, Cousino Macul

  £7200

  Red Wine of the Year, 97 points, Tim Atkin MW, 2023 Report on Chilean wines.

  Lota is the flagship wine of Cousiño Macul, an emblem of heritage, precision, and exceptional terroir. Sourced from the winery’s most treasured parcels, including Cabernet Sauvignon vines planted in 1932, this wine represents the pinnacle of the family’s winemaking tradition. These ungrafted vines are descendants of original French cuttings brought to Chile in the 1860s and grow at the foot of the Andes, 600 meters above sea level, in rocky, loamy soils that yield naturally low quantities of intensely concentrated fruit.

  In the glass, the 2019 Lota reveals a nose that is rich and layered, offering aromas of cassis, blackberry, and black cherry interwoven with cedar, cocoa, and subtle hints of warm spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied and structured, yet impressively refined. Lush black fruit flavours are framed by fine, ripe tannins and nuanced oak, creating a harmonious balance that culminates in a long, elegant, and ultra-smooth finish.

  This is a wine of power, grace, and provenance, worthy of extended cellaring, but compellingly drinkable now. Ideal for collectors and connoisseurs seeking a Cabernet-based wine that marries Old World sophistication with New World vitality.
