Taittinger Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs
Taittinger Comtes de Champagne is the finest expression of the world famous wine from one of the greatest Champagne Houses. First produced in 1952, Comtes is made from 100% Chardonnay grapes from 6 Grand Cru sites in the Cité de Blancs. Showing a pristine pale yellow colour with very light, abundant bubbles which rise uniformly to form a fine mousse. The evocative bouquet opens with notes of pears and fresh cute white flowers. Left in the glass for a time, the nose develops a richness and density of pure character. Once on the palate, Comtes is lively, direct and precise with flavours of candied lemon zest and fresh pineapple. The balance is something to behold. This Champagne's marriage of finesse and aromatic intensity is a promise of further potential, but already offers very pleasurable drinking.

Penfolds Yattarna Chardonnay
Penfolds Yattarna Chardonnay displays an initial bouquet of slate and wet stone, with nuances of lightly roasted almonds. Subtle hints of citrus, shrouded by nectarine and nashi pear fruits. On the palate, a spiced multi-citrus compote with a very delicate acidity. Balanced and will develop exceptionally well with cellaring.
Delamotte Champagne Blanc de Blancs
Delamotte was found in 1760 and is one of the five oldest Champagne houses. Based in the Grand Cru Village of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger in the Cote des Blancs, the house is reknowned for the delicacy and elegance of their cuvees. A 100% Chardonnay from six select Grand Cru vineyards in the Cotes des Blancs: Le Mesnil-sur-Oger brings fine acidity, minerality, and saline characters; Avize brings balance and structure; Oger brings generosity and fruit expression; Cramant brings minerality and smoky complexity, Chouilly structure and length, and Oiry the texture, body, and roundness. With six years of ageing on lees, this cuvee is characterised by its pure, direct, and intense flavours of citrus flavours, saline notes, and complex notes of freshly baked brioche. This Champagne will easily enhance a range of dishes, from oysters to beef tartare, and will comfortably age for another decade.

Domaine 47°N 3°E Chablis
Product Description: Domaine 47°N 3°E Chablis 2022 is a refined and expressive wine from one of the most exciting young producers in Chablis, Guillaume Michaut. Sourced from two vineyard plots in the heart of the Chablis region, the wine is crafted with a respect for both the environment and traditional winemaking techniques. Using organic farming practices and native yeasts, this Chablis showcases the fresh, mineral character of the terroir, while also embracing the richness that comes with careful winemaking. The 2022 vintage is poised and complex, revealing a perfect balance of fruit, acidity, and minerality. Maker: Domaine 47°N3°E is the result of Guillaume Michaut’s passion for his roots, combined with his vision for a modern approach to winemaking. Located at the crossroads of 47° North and 3° East, Guillaume’s estate is a true reflection of the region’s rich history and terroir. The vineyard, with its family legacy dating back to the 1960s, was originally planted by Guillaume’s grandfather in the village of Beines. His grandfather’s early commitment to quality plantings was instrumental in earning the village its Chablis appellation recognition. Now working on his own since 2018, Guillaume applies his meticulous approach to a small but precious selection of family-owned vines, producing wines that embody both tradition and innovation. His deep connection to the land and respect for its natural rhythms are at the core of every bottle produced at Domaine 47°N3°E. Philosophy: At Domaine 47°N3°E, winemaking is centered around respecting the terroir and embracing a minimal-intervention approach. Guillaume’s philosophy is rooted in the belief that the true expression of a wine comes from the soil and grape, not from excessive winemaking techniques. His vineyards are cultivated organically, with a focus on sustainability and maintaining the health of the land. Drawing inspiration from his internship with Nicolas Maillet in the Mâconnais, Guillaume uses native yeasts and avoids sulfur during fermentation, only adding a minimal amount at bottling. Each cuvée is crafted to showcase the unique character of the land, with the focus on balance and purity, allowing the wines to speak for themselves. Whether aged in stainless steel or oak demi-muids, each wine from Domaine 47°N3°E reflects the care and attention to detail that goes into every step of production, ensuring wines of exceptional quality and authenticity. Tasting Notes: NOSE: Fresh, Floral, Citrus An aromatic blend of fresh citrus notes, such as lemon and lime, alongside delicate floral aromas of white flowers and hints of chalk and flint. An expressive bouquet with a touch of mineral freshness. PALATE: Balanced, Mineral, Lively Flavours of crisp green apple, lemon, and a subtle layer of pear. The mineral edge on the mid-palate reveals the true character of Chablis, while the wine’s texture remains smooth and harmonious. FINISH: Clean, Crisp, Elegant The finish is clean and refreshing, with the bright acidity and mineral undertones leaving a long-lasting, satisfying aftertaste. The wine’s finish is marked by a subtle elegance.
