  2004 Gregor Shiraz, Hobbs

  £9500

  This outstanding aged Shiraz from Hobbs is made using the Appassimento style and matured for approximately 24 months in French oak.

  Appassimento wines are produced through a process of partially rack-drying grapes to increase concentration of both natural grape flavours and sugars.  The result is a wine of atypical power, concentration and alcohol content with an ability to benefit from long periods of maturation.

  Named in honour of a very fond memory from early in Greg and Allison’s relationship – a skiing instructor who had a hard time pronouncing ‘Gregory’.

  2023 Chardonnay, Far Niente

  £9500

  Aromas of citrus, melon and honeysuckle complement hints of white fig, gardenia and toasted hazelnuts on a background of mild toasted oak that adds supportive warmth and richness. A silky palate with a rich texture surrounds a sweet core of melon and citrus, with notes of white floral and toasted vanilla and spice, through to a long bright finish.

  Far Niente Chardonnay is a blend of superlative Napa Valley vineyards, many of which are located in a little-known area called Coombsville, a cool growing region nestled in the rolling countryside and protected by the hills east of the city of Napa. Coombsville offers the characteristic climate of Carneros, with less wind, along with deeper, well-drained gravelly loam and volcanic ash soils. The combination of these vineyards results in subtle, tropical flavours, complex aromas and rich texture.

  2014 Chardonnay ‘Durell Vineyard’, TOR

  £9500

  Ed Durell planted the first vines in the rock-strewn, windy hills in 1979. Today, Durell Vineyard spans three AVAs: Sonoma Valley, Sonoma Coast and Carneros. The block TOR sources from lies in the famed Sand Hill section of the vineyard, which overlooks the Sonoma Valley. This 2014 Durell Chardonnay ranks among the best they have ever produced. “This has the classic seamless, almost oily palate weight and texture to it that the best Durells have but with a thread of focus that helps to pull the intensity of the palate together. This shows mandarin oranges, stone fruits and an almost cut wet grass note to it.
