The “Grand Cru” of the Clos Jordanne portfolio is a full-bodied and layered offering with waves of peach, pear, apple, citrus, honey, hazelnut, toast and spice. The palate is dense, yet refined, with an underlying current of minerality as well as fresh acidity. Ready to drink. A triple-cream brie or roast chicken stuffed with mushrooms would be sublime with this wine.
Normally, I prefer my spirits unadulterated, but this one, lightly infused with honey, has made me a convert. It reveals a distinctive honeyed scent overlaid with cinnamon spice, together with citrus fruit, vanilla and caramel. Flavours of citrus and darker fruits kick in on the smoothly rounded palate, finishing with agreeable warming spirit and nutty dry oak. A fine after-dinner sipper and another exceptional value.
Light ruby colour. Beautiful nose of small red fruits, slightly perfumed. Light taste, fruity and very nice, it goes down easy. Drink now.
This Chardonnay is made for those who like refreshing and unwooded wines. A fruit-driven nose of grapefruit, pear, peach, pineapple and citrus are built on a light- to medium-bodied frame. Although dry, there is very good length, and for the price it represents great value. Pick up a couple of bottles for summer sipping.
This is a pure expression of dry Chenin; citrus, white flowers, honey, lime, white peach, red apple and crush rock resonate both on the nose and palate. Lifted acidity and a long finish make for a fine aperitif wine or a partner with freshwater fish. Drink over the next 6 years.
Racy and bright with aromas and flavours of cherry, spice, fresh herbs, tea, meat, smoke and earth. Elegant with firm, fine tannins, just the right amount of grippiness and a lifted finish. Great match with pork and pasta with meat sauce. 100% Nero d’Avola.
Medium ruby colour with a lightly cedary, spicy, plum nose. It is medium-bodied, dry with flavours of ripe cherry and plum. A nicely balanced, easy drinking wine that works well with duck, lamb or veal.
