  2023 Centenaire, Domaine Lafage

  £1750

  This stunning wine from Domaine Lafarge is made from 100-year-old bush vines that are planted in Canet-en-Roussillon, facing the Mediterranean Sea on stony gravelly soil close to the foothills of the Pyrenees.

  This wine has great aromatics on the nose with a symphony of citrus, white fruits and flowers bursting from the glass.  Mineral notes of wet gravel, crushed rock, flavours of pear, honeysuckle, vanilla, quince and white currant notes give this wine character and richness. Beautiful fresh length.    A special wine.l

  2021 Côtes du Roussillon Blanc, Château de l’Ou

  £1995

  A refreshing cuvée made from Grenache Blanc, Grenache Gris and Roussanne is full of lime, citrus and white fruit aromas leading to a textured palate with beautiful balance and a crisp, mouthwatering finish.

  The grapes come from the AOP Côtes de Roussillon, where the vineyards are located within a natural amphitheatre open to the Mediterranean Sea, and surrounded by mountain ranges. The vines are grown on the Roussillon plains where the soils are made up of alluvial marls. The climate is Mediterranean, strongly influenced by cooling coastal breezes combined with mountain freshness from the foothills of the Pyrenees which offer balance to the hot, arid summers. The vineyard is certified organic.

  2011 Le Cigare Blanc ‘Beeswax Vineyard’, Bonny Doon

  £2995

  Le Cigare Blanc is the white wine of Bonny Doon’s Le Cigare Volant series, which pays homage to the complex Rhones of Châteauneuf-du-Pape.   The great white Cigare is not unlike the great white whale; rarely seen, difficult to catch, yet its name is legend. It’s a rich, savory wine with greater power and extraction than one typically finds at Bonny Doon.

  In the glass it is pale gold with green-gold highlights,  a very strong impression of melon, along with Asian pear, pineapple and grapefruit pith, and in the mouth, very rich, sporting a certain modicum of tannin; this bodes exceptionally well for great longevity. The wine’s unique flavours will pair exceptionally well with hard cheeses, seafood (lobster especially), roasted poultry, and savoury vegetarian strudels or gratins. Paired with sushi served with freshly grated wasabi will also be a profound revelation.

  2010 Cuvee Barberini Blanc, Domaine de la Solitude

  £4950

  White Châteauneuf-du-Pape is one of the rarest and most prestigious wines in France. For most people, Châteauneuf-du-Pape in the southern Rhône Valley means red wine. This is understandable because only 7% of the wines are white.

  This cuvée is a tribute to the founding fathers of the Estate. It is made with Roussanne grapes, picked the moment that they take on their golden colour, associated with Grenache Blanc and Clairette grapes. The Roussanne harvest is fermented in new barrels and the Grenache and Clairette grapes in vats. This wine is aged for 8 months on fine lees before being blended. It is an opulent wine due to the large proportion of Roussanne, but it also has beautiful freshness thanks to the Clairette. It can be enjoyed between 1 and 8 years after the harvest, or even kept for longer by those who appreciate mature wines.
