The first whiff of this restrained Sauvignon Blanc indicates a departure from the hugely aromatic styles of Marlborough. It has a delicate floral nose with an inkling of Indian spice while the fruit is more stone-fruit than tropical. The palate is elegant, texturally soft with a mouthfeel of freshness and breadth. The cool climate of the Loire produces wines with distinctive freshness, a lean acidity and a spicy or steely spine.

From one of Languedoc's most energetic producers, Moulin de Gassac, comes a crisp and vivacious picpoul de pinet. A real crowd pleaser with floral aromatics, green melon and citrus flavours, finishing clean, brisk and zesty. One to get your taste buds going, and perfect with shellfish.

Lulu le Français is an original creation, inspired by the summer relaxed atmosphere. The brand embodies the South of France way of living, where life is sweet and sunny. With its straw hat, sailor top and espadrilles, Lulu sounds like the typical French vacationer, casually walking around through an animated local market, looking for fresh produces from the Terroir Lulu le Français wine will take you through a journey full of different flavours and aromas. Packed with sunshine and cooled by sea breeze, this lovely rosé is fruity, crisp and juicy, thanks to its carefully selected Grenache grapes, grown on south facing slopes from the Languedoc wine region. Take time to enjoy Lulu on a shady terrace among friends, with homemade cuisine from the market or simply as a sipping wine back from the beach!

Saint-Hilaire Blanquette de Limoux is sourced from the oldest sparkling wine producing region on the planet! In 1531, Benedictine monks from Saint-Hilaire were producing a still wine made from the Mauzac grape and stumbled upon bottles going through secondary fermentation. The appellation of Blanquette de Limoux was born! Still made in the same, traditional way today, Saint-Hilaire Brut displays aromatic flavours of peach, pear and green apple skins with a wonderful, full, creamy mouthfeel. Think non vintage Champagne for a fraction of the cost!
