  • 2020 Sauvignon Blanc, Doña PaulaWhite Wine

    2020 Sauvignon Blanc, Doña Paula

    £1250

    One of the best Chilean Sauvignon Blanc’s made.  Intense aromas of wild mint, grapefruit and white currant leap out of the glass, a fresh, concentrated and well-balanced Sauvignon with a persistent finish.

    The grapes are sourced from two vineyards: Alluvia Vineyard, which is located in Gualtallary, Tupungato, Uco Valley, at 1,350 metres above sea level; and the Los Cerezos Vineyard which is located in the Cordon del Plata Mountains, Tupungato, Uco Valley, at 1,000 metres above sea level. The climate typically presents warm days and cool nights with an average temperature variation of 14°C. It is this diurnal temperature variation, which extends the ripening period, balances the crisp acidity while producing complex flavours in the grapes. The average annual rainfall is low at 280mm. At Doña Paula, the vineyards have always been managed using sustainable agriculture practices. The combination of loamy, sandy, rocky and well-drained soils with an exhaustive selection of the best French clones, result in this premium example of Sauvignon Blanc.

  • 2022 ‘The Apple Doesn’t Fall Far From The Tree’ Torrontes, Matias RiccitelliWhite Wine

    2022 ‘The Apple Doesn’t Fall Far From The Tree’ Torrontes, Matias Riccitelli

    £1695

    Torrontes is Argentina’s signature white grape and this 2022 Torrontes is made from 40-year-old vines in the Uco Valley and is a classic example of the variety.  Made by superstar winemaker Matias Riccitelli, it has a fresh nose with inviting aromas of roses and citrus. On the palate, it’s complex, refreshing with a deliciously creamy texture.

    The grapes are grown in Tupungato, a renowned high-altitude wine district in the north of the Uco Valley. The climate offers excellent conditions for premium viticulture. The vines are planted at 1,000 meters above sea level and benefit from large diurnal temperature variations which result in a longer growing season. The heat assists in the promotion of sugar levels in the ripening grapes, while the coolness of the night retains acidity levels, achieving healthy and balanced berries.

  • 2019 ‘Blanco de la Casa’, Matias RiccitelliWhite Wine

    2019 ‘Blanco de la Casa’, Matias Riccitelli

    £2495

    Complex aromas of green apple, hay and herbaceous notes are underpinned by remarkable minerality. Textured and full flavoured with wonderful fluency and rich energy on the finish.

    Each component of the blend comes from carefully selected, high altitude, cool climate sites which produce grapes with aromatic complexity and beautiful freshness. The Sauvignon Blanc vineyard is located in the premium viticultural region of Gualtallary, where the vines are planted in calcareous soils at 1,400 metres above sea level. The Semillon grapes come from a low-yielding 50-year-old vineyard in La Consulta, where the vines grow at 1,000 metres elevation in sandy soils and produce rich, concentrated wines. The Chardonnay component comes from La Carrera which is located at 1,700 metres above sea level in sandy soils which are supported by gravel and boulder.
