  2007 Chateauneuf Du Pape ‘Cuvee Mourre Des Perdrix’, Domaine De La Charbonniere

  £5995

  This beautifully aged single vineyard Châteauneuf-du-Pape is at its peak – we have done the work for you!   Made from  45+ year old vines located to the south-east of the appellation, close to the commune of Courthézon. The terroir is composed by a variety of soils, which add complexity to the wine. A blend of Grenache (70%), Syrah (15%) and Mourvèdre (15%) the wine sees 10% new barrique and the rest in foudre.

  “exhibits plenty of pepper, lavender, raspberry, black currant, and floral characteristics. Full-bodied with moderate tannin, superb depth and purity, and a broad, compelling, 40-second finish” Robert Parker.

  2008 Côte-Rôtie, Blonde du Seigneur, Georges Vernay

  £9900

  Although Domaine Georges Vernay has built its reputation around its excellent Condrieu white wines, its reds should not be neglected, especially ones from the Côte-Rôtie. From a 5 ha plot of vines, Vernay’s Côte-Rôtie is amongst the most exceptional wines from the same appellation. Thanks to a perfectly mastered elegant wine style, Christine Vernay successfully expresses the elegance and depth of syrah; never over maturing or over ageing.

  The 2008 Blonde du Seigneur is wonderfully refined.  Seductive nose with smoked lard, pepper and juicy notes. Magnificently dense on the palate, with great depth, style and longevity. A very elegant, classic wine

  Côte Rôtie is a prestigious red wine appellation at the northern tip of the Rhône Valley wine region, where the vineyards are situated on steep slopes (the Côtes). Due to these steep slopes the 30-year-old vines are maintained manually, without the use of weed killers and all treatments use organic products.
