POUILLY-FUISSE “Domaine G. Saumaize”
£31.00
Expressive, almost exotic aromas and flavours with a lovely touch of oak that adds a slightly nutty character to the lush, ripe Chardonnay fruit. Rich but restrained, there is a real finesse and elegant balance to this very classy white Burgundy.

The Cloud Factory Pinot Noir, Marlborough 2020
Red, Wine
From maritime vineyards in Marlborough’s south easterly extremes in the Blind River Valley. We exploit this coastal fruit by capturing a breezy finesse over the classic cranberry and wild strawberry aromas giving us a wine with enough bite and texture to be foody but with enough generosity of fruit to be a delicious glass on its own. A lick of oak in the winemaking lends a little soothing creaminess to the whole.

CHAMPAGNE – Champagne Charles Chevalier Brut d’Honneur
Wine, Sparkling
PRODUCTION
The vines are mainly planted in shallow soil which encourages the roots to grow deeply into the underlying chalk, providing them with water and warmth. The Pinot Noir vineyard in Aÿ has a sunny, south-facing slope, which allows the grapes to reach excellent maturity. Sustainable and environmentally friendly agriculture is practiced wherever possible. The harvest is always done by hand. Grapes are whole bunch pressed and the juice is racked to a tank where it is allowed to settle for at least 12 hours. The clear juice is racked and yeast added to encourage a thorough fermentation at a cool temperature, approximatly 15-17°C. After a short period of post ferment maturation, the wine is bottled with a yeast addition to allow for secondary, in bottle, fermentation. The dosage is 9 g/l.
TASTING NOTE
A fine Champagne, made in the classic tradition of the houses of Aÿ. Principally Pinot Noir and Chardonnay with a little Pinot Meunier, matured in cool chalk cellars before release.

False Bay ‘Bush Vine’ Pinotage, Coastal Region 2020
Red, Wine
Wild yeast fermentation, low yielding bush vines and ageing in large French oak foudre inform this richly-fruited, yet savoury and satisfying Pinotage. Plummy aromas with a faint hint of barbecued meat. The palate is full and rich with slightly rustic yet moreish tannins and a long finish.
