Chaffey Bros Dufte Punkt White
A masterful blend of three Germanic luminaries, Gewürztraminer,Riesling and Weiyer Herold. Showcasing restrained and yet mouthfilling (and watering) tropical fruits; lychee, mandarins and the like with gorgeous minerality that lingers on the tongue.
Tussock Jumper Fino Sherry
A light dry fresh Sherry, pungent to the nose and pale straw in colour. To be enjoyed with aperitif and all kinds of fish and seafood dishes. Fresh with hints of yeast, dry and well balanced.
Hugel Gentil
Alsace is in the far north-eastern corner of France and is noted for its excellent white wines. It is the only AOC region in France that is allowed to produce wines designated by the name of the grape variety from which they are produced. During the 18th and 19th centuries, the Hugel family gained an enviable reputation for their winegrowing skills and for the meticulous way in which they cultivated their vineyards. While it's typical for one of the wine world's most northern climates to produce vintages of distinct character, the latest stands out, delivering some of the lowest yields in the last 30 years, extremely high acidity levels and healthy fruit harvested at high ripeness levels. The bouquet is very aromatic with white peach, fresh almond, green apple and floral notes. The wine is dry on the palate, fresh and well balanced, with a supple finish.
Hugel Pinot Blanc Classic
The first traces of the Hugel family in Alsace can be traced back to the XVth century. Some two centuries later, Hans Ulrich Hugel settled in Riquewihr, which had been devastated by the terrible Thirty Years War. In 1639 he was made a freeman of the city and soon took charge of the very powerful Corporation of Winegrowers. In 1672 his son built a fine house in the Rue des Cordiers, and over the doorway was carved the family crest which was the origin of the company’s logo still used today.
Grape & Vine Fiano
A well rounded Italian Fiano with subtle nutty nuances and fresh pear, citrus, and honey flavours on the palate. Picked at pefect ripeness to build richness and presence on the palate, with balanced acid drive up the middle.
Pulpo Albariño
This wine is made from Albariño grapes carefully grown in the vineyards at Val do Salnés (valley of the salterns) in Galicia, where most vineyards and wineries congregate under the Denominación de Origen Rías Baixas. This grape variety is characterised by its small clusters, early ripening and medium vigour. They are remarkable for their pleasantly impressive fine and distinguished floral and fruity aromas, of a medium intensity and a medium-long finish.
Botter Prosecco DOC
Typical Italian Prosecco Spumante, crisp and delicate perlage. Pale light yellow colour, delicate and complex bouquet with fruity notes that remind of peach, green apple with second notes of acacia and lilac. Fresh and light on the palate, with balanced acidity and body; harmonic with a long persistent aftertaste.
Stone's Chocolate & Orange Infused Green Ginger Wine
Stone’s Green Ginger Wine enhanced with chocolate and orange is a captivating sensory experience. The marriage of these flavours transforms the familiar green ginger wine into a sophisticated and enticing indulgence. This infusion manages to strike a perfect equilibrium, allowing each component to shine while contributing to a harmonious whole. Whether sipped on its own as a contemplative after-dinner drink or used as a creative ingredient in cocktails, this unique blend offers a memorable journey through its intricate layers of taste and aroma.
Azulejo Albariño
Azulejos (tiles in English) are a quintessential part of Spanish art, just as wine. Each region in Spain has its own distinct style of producing the azulejos. With this collection of wines we pair the most attractive and trendiest wine regions with a particular azulejo style, using a modern approach that results in a pairing that brings out the best qualities of both.
Perla del Mar
Perla del Mar is the white sibling to the tasty Perla Negra. It comes from a special coastal vineyard called La Marina, 35 miles from Alicante. The wine’s delightfully fresh and fruity style is thanks to the grape selection (mainly the fragrant and ‘grapey’ Moscatel), the fact that the vineyards are surrounded by sea to the north, south and east, and, finally, to the modern methods of talented winemaker Pamela Geddes. Having been in charge of sparkling wine production for Seppelt in Australia, she knows all about keeping flavours crisp and fruity in warm climates. Perla del Mar is an elegant, refreshing wine with a vibrant, lime zest core and hints of lychee and other tropical fruits. It’s the archetypal summer apéritif – all year round!
