Rao Silva Rubra Terre del Volturno IGP
Obtained from a well-balanced blend selection of Aglianico, Pallagrello Nero and Casavecchia, Silva Rubra is an important typical red wine produced by Cantine Rao. Pallagrello is an historical wine, appreciated by Ferdinand IV of Bourbon and then considered one of the best of the Kingdom, as reported by an ancient writing found on a historical tablet dating back to 1775, in Colline Caiatine fields. In the glass, Silva Rubra shows its peculiar intense ruby colour. 0n the nose, vanilla, spice and cocoa aromas introduce violet and soft fruit notes. Strong and elegant tannins give bold and structured round tones. It is perfect with structured first courses, grilled and braised red meat, and with mature cheese. Decant for about one hour and serve it at a temperature between 18 ° and 20 ° C (64.4 ° and 68 ° F).
Albino Rocca Moscato D'Asti
Older vines and limestone-rich soil combine to make this a more structured, mineral and briny Moscato, manifesting a very refreshing and classy style. The nose is floral and fresh with the citric tang of lemons and limes. Lush and creamy at first, then loaded with a cocktail of ripe citrus, sweet herbs and honeyed apricot flavours, freshened by a mineral spine and a racy finish.

Château Filhot Sauternes
Château Filhot is set amongst the woods and fields of Sauternes and is one of the most beautiful estates in the region. No oak is used in the production of Filhot, only glass-fibre vats that contribute to the elegant structure of the wines, rarely becoming the uncious and full bodied wines that generally have a higher proportion of Semillon. The Filhot from the 2009 vintage is dominated by a subtle nutty note, most prominantly almond. While honey, apricot and peach play their role, it is the almond nose and palate that set this wine apart and is a major part of its exotic appeal.<b>Please note: 750mL bottle</b>
Dalwhinnie Moonambel Chardonnay
The 2008 marks the 25th anniversary of Dalwhinnie Chardonnay in the Pyrenees in western Victoria, and the wine is still not missing a beat. With less oak used now than in previous vintages, the wine exhibits magnificent citrus and mineral flavours and aromas with a delicate honey flavour notes and texture. A truly elegant wine.
Clos Figueras Serras del Priorat
Château Lanessan Haut-Médoc
Château Lanessan continues to be a true bargain in the Bordeaux world. Lanessan produces wines that at first seem firm, but flesh out with marvellous fruit with good richness. Lanessan is also a very consistant producer, creating wines of quality from questionable vintages. The great thing is that you don't have to worry too much about 'questionable' vintage when looking at this superb 2009. The Bordeaux Gods have definitely been smiling on communes and produced wines of utmost concentration and power. Lanessan did not miss out with the licquorice, spice and blackcurrant rich wine that will reward the Bordeaux bargain hunter for the next decade or more.
