Porta Dante Prosecco has a bright straw yellow hue and lingering streams of tiny bubbles usher in subtle aromatics of white flowers with apple and peach-like white-fleshed fruits. Stimulating freshness on the full-bodied, elegant palate brings out the long lingering suite of subtly nuanced aromatics. Softness of texture and fragrant aromatics have earned this wine admirers both as an aperitif and as a partner for spicy, flavour-rich starters. Outstanding served with crustacean salads or vegetable-based dishes.

The Maretti Langhe Rosso weaves rich and opulent Barbera (70%) with the haunting aromas and structure of Nebbiolo (30%) to create an inviting and rewarding wine with layers of complexity one that is truly expressive of this unique wine region.

Pale straw colour with gentle hints of green. Veuve du Vernay Brut has lovely fine bubbles and consistant sparkle throughout. Fresh and delicate on the nose with aromas of lemon, melon and citrus. A most elegant wine, beautifully balanced and can be enjoyed in every occasion.

Petaluma Croser is one of the true premium quality sparklings produced in Australia. This Croser is subtle and refined on the nose and supported by lovely melony fruit on the palate and a clean crisp finish. Sourced from fruit high in the Adelaide Hills, Croser is the perfect aperitif style sparkling.

Barbera can be a bit of a chameleon, so let's set the record straight immediately; this wine falls into the pure-fruited, punchy, lighter bodied, good-times category. Pure, black cherry, raspberry, nettle and anise aromas and flavours - perfumed and engaging - it has both sweet and savoury notes and more than enough structure to keep the palate fresh. It also showcases the finesse that is so typical of Massolino's wines. Matured in stainless steel and concrete tanks, this wine hails from a 2.2-hectare limestone-rich vineyard in Serralunga d'Alba where the vines are between 10 and 35 years of age.

For something sweet, fruity, and full of bubbles then do not look past Diamond Nights. This value for money Spumanti is the perfect wine to have as an aperitif or part of a meal on a summer evening.

G.H.MUMM Millésimé 2006 is a luminous and bright golden yellow in colour with fine, lingering bubbles.The nose reveals a superbly complex wine: notes of apple and pear, with yellow fruit such as apricot and mirabelleplum. It then develops aromas of dried fruit and nuts with hints of pastry. After a strong attack, the wine developsgradually. It then reveals the increasingly perceptible presence of Pinot Noir, giving an unctuousness to the structure before unfolding into a long, precise finish.

Who is Louis Auger? The mystery and wonder is as enticing as the Champagne itself. A fantastic lesser known Champagne, offering remarkable value-for-money and quality. Complex notes of bread, biscuits, citrus and apples complement the lighty toasty mouthfeel and soft rounded finish. Perfect as an aperitif or a companion to lighter style meals.

This is a great example of the popular moscato style. Fresh and grapey with a touch of spritz on the palate. Best enjoyed well chilled.

Chamapagne Rosé is a true delight to the senses and Billecart-Salmon rightly takes its place in the top echelon. A vibrant Salmon pink colour greets the glass, with a long, smooth, delicate, elegant and refined palate to follow. Without the price tag that others of this quality demand, this is a Champagne that all must enjoy at least once.
