Awesome barrel fermented assyrtiko from a top Santorini producer. Highly recommended

To the overall story of Assyrtiko there is a chapter before and another one since Paris Sigalas. He is the pioneering winemaker who applied mathematics and other innovative ideas to oenology and viticulture to elevate Santorini’s wines to international stardom.

The vines are classified as old vines (since they were not destroyed during the Phylloxera epidemic), and are over 50 years in age. The vineyards are planted using the same technique from antiquity to the present day known as ‘kataboladi’.

Fermentation in French Oak barrels of 225lt and 500lt, 10% of the barrels are new and the rest is of 2nd or 3rd use. The ‘’sur lies’’ method is applicated for 6-8 month.

Easily one of the best value wines I have come across for a long while. It’s a perfect storm of a great producer with perfect age and an unbelievable price tag of £25. If this was classified as a 1er Cru the price would be a different story

Vieille Voye is a seven hectare site, located beneath Premier Cru Les Lys in Vaillons. The current vines were planted in 1902. It is named La Vieille Voye, meaning ancient way, as a Roman way once crossed the site.

Stone fruit medley, toasty, mineral and great acidity. A must try for any chardonnay lover

Easily one of the best value wines available right now. I honestly can’t think of a better wine for £26. If you follow the stories there has been a catalogue of library releases of the reserve Cabernet from various back vintages. Also back vintages of the Vergelegen GVB and flagship V. Abundance of cassis and stewed plum, menthol and toasty smoke. Check it out.

Vintage rose champagne with this age doesn’t come around often so get involved. As with all vintage champagne I like to take it out of the fridge leave on the side for half an hour and then keep it out. Absolutely essential here as it kept improving as it warmed up. There was a 37% proportion of Chardonnay in the blend here also which kept things even more interesting. Toasty brioche, citrus peel and peach melba. Lingering finish with toasty red berry fruit. 🤩😍. Limited stock. Check out the website for more information

I had an extremely privileged experience of a vertical tasting spanning 2022 to 2008 of Malvasia Istria style at Matosevic in Croatia. Described by the late Steven Spurrier as "Croatia’s best winemaker", Ivica Matošević has established himself as a force of nature in the country’s burgeoning wine industry. Most consumers as with many wines like to consume fresh from release. It takes time and patience cellaring but the rewards are worth the wait. Cellaring also doesn’t need to be constrained to high end wines as this wine I am selling at £15.95.

The tasting! Off the bat 2022 you have stone peach, citrus peel, floral bouquet backed up by fresh acidity. The development through ages you taste the honeyed fruit, almond notes, saline notes and floral exuberance coming through and mellowing of the acidity. It was interesting to taste how the acidity prevailed in the wetter vintage years which resulted in them almost defying their age.

The Antiqua is barrel fermented with extra ageing only in exceptional years that adds spice notes that makes it extremely friendly for food pairing. Tasted both the 2016 & 2018. Adds complexity in a unique way.

The 2019 ‘Grimalda’ Red is the first organic certified vintage of this Teran, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon blend from a terraced, sunny, single vineyard in Central Istria, near the village of Grimalda. This wine has elegance and balance with the international grape varieties complementing the local Teran.

Highly recommended wines to get a taste of Istria!

Whispering Angel & Rock Angel are on promotion this July whilst stocks last. It’s certainly the first time as an independent merchant that I have been given such a great offer on these wines. Bring on the sunshine!

New listing and great value still red Douro Portuguese wine from Ramos Pinto. £15.95 bottle price and in my mind a price point where Portuguese wines really rise above the crowd in terms of quality. Lots of blackberry, plum, dried strawberry, followed by toasted spices and subtle smoke. Good strong finish. Lots more in the Portuguese category like this to check out on the website.

Probably not what most people are thinking about right now but the 2022 rose wines are starting to arrive. This is fantastic and in stock now. It will definitely be a mainstay this summer. The rosé, made solely from estate-grown fruit, is a blend of Grenache, Tibouren, Cinsault and Carignan. Pale pink salmon colour, plenty of wild strawberry, raspberry with citrus lift and subtle herbal notes. Perfect.

Incredible and rare 2012 old vine Hunter Valley chardonnay from Tyrrell’s. It’s made from the original block planted by Murray Tyrrell in 1968. Only two barriques were bottled. Lovely light golden colour. Honeyed stone fruits, lemon & orange peel, toasted cashew, hints of struck match, crisp acidity and great length. Love this. New arrival in stock so please check out the website for more information.

Epic wine tasting this week with Marc Kent from Boekenhootskloof. Launch on the 2020 vintage with library tasting of Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon & Semillon from the 2001, 2002 , 2009 and 2010.

It was interesting to see how the wines have evolved. Not only in the bottle but also in the vineyards used and grape blends.

The 01s had great maturity but still well alive and very enjoyable. In contrast the 02’s from a bad vintage year which were so much more developed and for me over the hill.

The 09s and 10s were singing and my favourites (library stock coming soon!) I personally like this spot where early tertiary development is balanced with good fruit

2020s are tasting great but obviously very youthful. The Franschhoek Cabernet Sauvignon displayed more elegance than the Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon. Plenty to enjoy but as always cellaring will be rewarded.

Mince pie & port review. ALDI specially selected all butter mince pie. The filling was great in flavour but the ratio of the mince was not balanced to the heavily weighted buttery pastry. The Fonseca port was great and was a heavenly match. This made up for the mince pies shortfalls.

New arrival Domaine de Montille, Bourgogne Blanc, 2019.

The fruit is sourced from a five-hectare plot, 'Le Clos du Château', situated on the border of the Puligny-Montrachet vineyards. The soils consist of silt and clay, which imparts a richness and texture to the wine. The Domaine has practised organic viticulture since 1995 and was certified organic in 2012. Since 2005, it has also converted to biodynamic viticulture.

My Christmas Day chardonnay last year. Incredible wine. Just cracked into the last case of the 2018 vintage. Only 5 bottles left now 😔. Moving on to the 2020 vintage next. Please visit the website for more information.

Back in stock with the 2016 vintage. If you want to understand what Bandol red wine is all about then trying Tempier is a must!

The Estate’s prominent cuvée blends the discrete strength of Bandol with the elegance and finesse which characterize Tempier. This complexity is a result of different terroirs of the estate and the variety of its clay-limestone soil located around the Estate but also in La Cadière, Sainte Anne d’Evenos, and Ollioules. There are sandy marls, limestone greseux from santonien, rudist limestone and recent barely deep horizons of colluvions. Plus, there are various sun or wind exposures.

Please visit the website for more information.

New arrival Domaine de Montille, Bourgogne Rouge, 2019.

The fruit for this wine comes from 3.28 hectares of vineyards, inlcuding one Volnay plot by the name of 'Les Longbois' and various other sites within Puligny-Montrachet. The Domaine has practised organic viticulture since 1995 and was certified organic in 2012. Since 2005, it has also converted to biodynamic viticulture.

I think I would say Mullineux are my favourite South African wine producer. This fantastic great value old vine chenin blanc is a must try.

This wine is made from three sustainably farmed vineyard parcels from different parts of the Swartland. One parcel is sourced from 40-year-old old vine Chenin Blanc grown on the stony shale and schist-based soils of Kasteelberg, which retains heat well, ensuring even ripening and adds a mineral freshness to the wine. The other two parcels are from old, dry-farmed bush vine Chenin Blanc planted on the decomposed granite soils of the Paardeberg. The age of the vines, along with the dry conditions gives complex fruit with concentration of aroma and flavour.

The wines are named after the street where Chris and Andrea lived in Riebeek-Kasteel when they first started making their own wine. Originally renting vineyards and cellar space, they registered their Liquor Licence to their home address, or as Chris puts it – “effectively semi-legally bootlegging out of our garage”. They now make some of the most lauded wines in South Africa, with Kloof Street serving as a reminder of their modest beginnings.
