A brilliant example of Barbera from one of Piedmont’s great names. The 2023 Ca’ di Pian is packed with juicy dark fruit, lively freshness, and just the right touch of spice — deliciously versatile at the table and seriously good value. Taste The 2023 Ca’ di Pian Barbera d’Asti Superiore is bright and expressive, brimming with ripe cherry, plum, and blackberry fruit. There’s a lifted floral note, a hint of spice, and a touch of mocha from time in oak. The palate is sleek and concentrated, with Ba

95 Points - DWWA. Arguably the most beautiful rosé champagne in the world, the most common criticism of this wine is that the bottles aren’t big enough. The Laurent Perrier Cuvee Rosé is bottled summer. Deep ruby pink, the bouquet wafts waves of concentrated strawberries, red cherries, and raspberries into the air. On the palate this a serious joy. It opens up with an intense, Burgundy-like rush of cherries, loganberries and brambles, only for cherry sherbet acidity, flowers, liquorice and dried

Laurent‑Perrier’s style and personality are defined by its very high proportion of Chardonnay, made up of Chardonnay 50%, Pinot Noir 30-35%, Meunier 10-15% sourced from over 100 different Crus for maximum complexity and balance.

This multi award winning Sancerre is a made blend of the best parcels of Sauvignon the domaine has to offer.

The Moulin des Vrilleres Sancerre Rosé is produced from 100% Pinot Noir grown on fine limestone and clay soils. The limestone imparts a wonderful minerality while the clay adds depth to the finished wine. It’s produced using the saignée method whereby the skins ‘bleed’ a little colour into the wine over a period of around 12 hours. Fermentation temperatures are kept low to protect the delicate aromas, and it's bottled in the spring to capture its vibrancy. Taste Beautiful smoked salmon pink, the

'Vol de Nuit' is a pure expression of the Carignan grape variety from a selection of 3 very old parcels of vines dating back to 1900. The result is a wine with a very deep colour and an explosion of fruit, black cherry and spice.

96 Points - Guia Penin. Capitel is the flagship wine from the magnificent Ossian Vides y Vinos, arguably Spain’s greatest white wine producer. The Capitel is made from the estate’s oldest vines, some of which are believed to be 200 years old, from a tiny, organically farmed plot at Peña Aguda, in Nieva.  Over the years, the roots have penetrated the slate sheets beneath the surface and extracted a rich mineral strength from them.  This packs the tiny berries with concentration and complexity.
