Amazingly complex with a ripe, mouth-filling, creamy texture. Rich apricot, pear, nectarine, orange peel, ginger, fig and persimmon, balanced beautifully with a bright acidity with a hint of nuttiness on the lasting finish. A stunning wine and a great case for Chenin Blanc being the signature white varietal of South Africa.
The complex aromas strike the nose with ripe fruit, dark spice and earthy savouriness. Prune, red cherry, liquorice, mocha, cigar and leather flavours fill the rich, firmly structured palate. Well-balanced tannins linger. Decant to aerate, which softens its texture. A match for pastas with hearty meat sauce.
Full ruby. Nose is predominantly on delicious red fruits with a perfumed note. Of medium concentration on the palate, its tannins have a fine grain of good quality. Already providing pleasure in the glass.
This Old Vines Grenache comes from a subregion of Aragon in the central eastern region of Spain. It is dominated by deep, dark fruit with black cherry and plum backed up by spicy and herbal notes, solid tannic structure, good acidity and firm dry grip on the finish. It pairs very well with spicy BBQ spare ribs.
This silky milk stout has a hint of perfumy bergamot that seamlessly weaves into the velvety chocolate and vanilla flavours of this stout. Pour into a teacup and eat with scones, while scrolling the latest @sussexroyal Instagram posts.
A delightful sparkling wine made from organic-biodynamic vineyards in a slightly off-dry style. The nose shows perfectly balanced cherry-raspberry fruits with just a hint of citrus. It has moderate effervescence on the palate with clean and crisp red fruits. A perfect aperitif.
This wine is aptly named, as it is now a trifecta of excellence for this bottling; the 2011 is a worthy successor to the 2010 and 2009. Full-bodied, the peach, white flowers, honey, pineapple, pear, cream and spice gush from the glass. The finish is lengthy and the palate is a ying-yang of cream and refreshing acidity. No thin Pinot Grigio here; this is an impressive Pinot Gris done in the Alsatian style.
