2023 Sauvignon Blanc Reserve, Cape Point Vineyards
£2495Add to BasketAn elegant Sauvignon Blanc with aromas of floral spice, cardamom and white pepper. Richly textured with generous notes of citrus and ripe nectarine through to the characteristic, lengthy mineral edge on the finish.
The estate is positioned on the narrow Cape Peninsula, where the confluence of sea breezes from the cold Atlantic Ocean, less than one mile away, and the southeasterly breezes from False Bay, create ideal conditions for the slow ripening of grapes. The grapes for this wine are hand-selected from three sea-facing vineyard parcels in the mid-levels of the estate, where a combination of the fresh breezes and decomposed granite soils result in a wine with a distinct mineral edge. The breezes, along with good canopy management, help to keep the vines healthy and diseases at bay, reducing the need for treatments. When the winds are strong, they also control the vine’s vigour and encourage a second suckering. The topography of the Noordhoek amphitheatre is also influential. It was carved from the Silvermine mountain over time, and as a result the soils of the estate vineyards are rich with decomposed granite, limestone and kaolin, imbuing the wines with their signature mineral quality.

2023 The Chocolate Block, Boekenhoutskloof
£2495Add to BasketThe 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.

2022 Malbec, El Enemigo
£2495Add to BasketEl Enemigo is the collaborative venture of Adrianna Catena, daughter of Nicolás Catena, and Alejandro Vigil, renowned Chief Winemaker at Bodega Catena Zapata. Located at the southern foothills of Mendoza’s impressive Andes range, aptly named Piedemonte al Sur, the estate sources fruit from vineyards planted as early as 1986, at elevations between 1,400 and 1,500 m above sea level. This high-altitude terroir, combined with calcareous, rocky, sandy-loam soils, creates ideal conditions for crafting Malbecs of yin-yang power and elegance.
“El Enemigo”, Spanish for “The Enemy”, symbolises the internal battle every winemaker faces amid vineyard challenges and high-altitude conditions. It is also a reflection of the winemaking duo’s ambition to craft Argentine wines that rival Europe’s finest. The project is a modern homage to Argentine heritage, blending Catena’s historical legacy with Vigil’s winemaking mastery.
In the glass, the 2022 Malbec shines with bright purple hues. The aromatics combine ripe black cherry, plum, and darker berry fruit, layered with herbal notes of thyme and a touch of violet. On the palate, it is rich, fluid, and impeccably balanced, plush yet structured. Silky tannins and vibrant acidity support flavours of blackberry, black cherry, baking spice, and gently savoury earth. The finish is long, refined, and satisfying, with an elegant tannic grip.

2023 Koshu Private Reserve, Grace Winery
£2595Add to BasketThis wine is made from Japan’s most important indigenous grape variety, Koshu, which is grown in Japan’s top Koshu producing region: Katsunuma.
Pure, sublimely crisp and mineral in style, this wine is fresh and elegant with rich aromas of fresh pear, white peach, honeysuckle, rosemary, clove and mineral stone notes. Dry, with a lively palate of crisp, ripe fruits and a charming acidity which offers the wine great backbone, through to a hint of umami on the finish.
Situated at the eastern end of the Kofu basin, the Katsunuma’s area is an alluvial fan with well-drained soils, an area which has been suitable for viticulture since ancient times. The characteristic, intricate terrain with its complex, volcanic soils produces wines that distinguish the sense of place. The vines are grown at elevations of above 400 metres; these high- altitude, hilly areas such as the Toriihira in Katsunuma, Hishiyama and Fukasawa districts produce limited yields, concentrated flavours and balancing acidity, due to the diurnal temperature swings. Traditional trellis pruning has been cast aside in favour of a modern long cordon training system which helps to control yields; concentrating flavours and sugars to balance the high acidity that occurs naturally in this variety. In order to reduce the effects of autumn rain, each bunch is covered with an umbrella and the fruit is hand-picked at optimal maturity.

With a strong focus on sustainable viticulture and low-intervention winemaking, the estate has gained international recognition for producing wines of depth, structure, and individuality.
