A terrific 3 bottle selection of exceptional wines made by producers that have been rated as the best of the best by wine critics as well as ourselves! Champagne Pierre Bertrand 1er Cru Brut NV Dom. des Soulanes Vielles Vignes Blanc 2023 Cotes Catalanes Ch. Tronquoy-Lalande 2014 Saint Estephe Champagne Pierre Bertrand 1er Cru Brut NV £32 came first in a Decanter tasting of over 100 Grower Champagnes in June 2018, with a score of 98 and an Exceptional rating. We have been importing it into the UK for 12 years and we always knew it was great, now some of the top wine critics agree with us, unanimously. A premium cuvee made exclusively from the premier cru villages of Cumieres and Hautvillers. These are warm sites, with south-facing vineyard s well-exposed to the sun, and for this cuvee Bertrand blends the three main Champagne grape varieties in equal proportions. It's aged for six years in the cellars before release, which is unusually long for a grower estate, and this long ageing on the lees contributes to the wine's complexity and finesse. Dom. des Soulanes Vielles Vignes Blanc 2023 Cotes Catalanes IGP, Cert. Organic £26.99 A very special wine from ancient plants of two of the rarest and very best vines for Soualnes terroir, Grenache Gris and Carignan Gris. This really does have everything. It's floral, honeyed orchard and citrus fruits added to its sumptuousness, its layers of texture and bright but not too spiky acidity. Very long with great balance and so much interest. Divine stuff that is here in tiny quantities. Tamlyn Currin, jancisrobinson.com 17.5/20 "There is Roussillon encoded into every molecule of this wine: rare varieties, a rare blend, and a taste that teleports you straight there. A wine that's simply singing the spirit songs of its vineyard. Fennel pollen and kumquat, honey and lemon thyme. It's fragrant, sweet, delicately stony, gossamer smoky. It's cool peach on warm evening, sitting on nature's mat of vineyard mint, breathing in the blue of the first evening star. It's a wine that is a place. It is very, very special. Ch. Tronquoy-Lalande 2014 Saint Estephe £32 The wines of Château Tronquoy-Lalande know how to seduce from their youth and gain in elegance after several years in cellar. In their blends we find the particularity of the estate's grape varieties, atypical for a Saint-Estèphe wine, dominated by Merlot, which fruit combines with the power of the Cabernet Sauvignon. The hint of Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc adds freshness, finesse and aromatic complexity. 90/100 Jane Anson "From the same team as Château Montrose, this is always a great wine, full of finesse and drama. This is very good quality, with a lovely rich, deep texture with sexy, ripe fruit. The alcohol is perhaps the highest of the appellation in this vintage, but it's balanced. 1% Cabernet Franc rounds out the blend." Deep garnet core. Masses of pure vibrant cassis, youthful if not primary. A touch minty/leafy. Finely textured, almost chalky tannins. Fresh and refined in texture with equally refined fruit for harmony. GV

Fairly simple cherry and redcurrant aromas lead to blackcurrants and plums in the mouth, with refreshing acidity and a line of bitterness on the back palate. The grapes were whole-bunch pressed, which perhaps adds that greeness underneath the ripe fruit. A more structured, tannic wine than initially expected, but with lovely fruit - delicious wine.

Billecart-Salmon
Famously delicate and sexy pink At the March 2022 Taste Champagne (300 wines) I have to say this stood out as one of the most delicious "drinking Champagnes" on show - and there were some very Showy wines on show that day. A huge success for us, easy to forget just how gorgeous it is - firstly it is so very savoury, forget the cherry fruits, it's more like Xmas cake, rhubarb, forest floor, nettle and nutmeg. When the glass is empty the aromas persist. This is Grand stuff, the stuff of deluxe cuvee, truly epic. And a dinner wine too. A cunning counsel for you - don't serve it too cold, err on the cellar-temperature side. March 2022. Of course the whole Billecart range is exceptional and impressive but the 'basic NV is a STEAL! Seriously, super-tight with Silex and citrus, grippy and bracing. On best-ever form.

2 btls each of Dom. des Soulanes Patchwork Rouge 2021 IGP Cotes Catalanes, Cert. Organic £14.99 Wonderful new cuvee from the brilliant Daniel and Cathy Laffite based in Tautavel. These guys have some of the most beautiful vineyards we have ever seen, and they are worked with utmost care and respect in an organic way. Glorious Grenache and Carignan deliver so much pleasure with beautiful fruit, great minerality and supple, savoury tannins. DELICIOUS. Negroamaro I Muri 2022 Vigneti del Salento £13.50 Negroamaro is the most important of Puglia’s native black grape vines. Its origins are uncertain, but may have arrived in Italy with Ilyrian traders even before the Greeks arrived in the 7th Century BC. Ancient vine grown in the ancient Taranto region - the inside of the heel. Inky dark, packed with plum and spice. Very natural winemaking, very lush endearing wine. Lyrarakis Liatiko Red IGP 2023 £15.99 Very light ruby colour, impressive aromas of dark cherry and wild berries with flavours bursting deep and pure on the palate.

Chateau Guiraud
CWM Rating: First Class! 60% Semillon and 40% Sauvignon Blanc A classy, complex nose of passion fruit, mango, lemon tart and gooseberry. Great intensity on the savoury palate with a smokey undertone. Creamy hazelnuts, yuzu zest and green fruits, seasoned with vanilla seeds, lead to a touch of spice on the finish.

Chateau Haut Nouchet
Pessac-Leognan, just south of the city of Bordeaux, features gravel-rich soils that produce wines with excellent clarity and definition. Odyssée is a cuvée by Château Haut Nouchet, and its vines are some of the highest elevation in the appellation. The blend is about 60/40 Cabernet Sauvignon/Merlot, with a splash of Petit Verdot. We found this wine impressive in its combination of intensity and restraint. The nose is dark and polished with plum and wild cherries, and notes of liquorice and spice. The mouth is inky and dark but the fruit is laid over a beautifully clean structure of fine gravely tannin. This is a classy, sleek Bordeaux with a beautifully balanced mouthfeel, that tastes a lot more expensive than it is.

Chateau Tour Saint Christophe
Jean Christophe Meyrot, ex La Violette (one of the top properties in Pomerol) . Full on but good structure. Juicy palate. Certainly ripe. Warm, good acid, persistent. More powerful than elegant. Forthright. Dark ruby color with black fruit notes like blackberries and black cherries, violet and dry herbs, leather and black pepper, nice minerality and French oak, some vanilla and tobacco. Nice balance and structure with a long finish.

Chateau Les Charmilles
Silver Medal winner for this Merlot-based red wine that is packed with flavour and very well balanced already. Lots of plum and blackberry primary flavours, soft tannins and a nice lick of acidity that keeps the wine energetic.

Chateau Moulin de Mallet
79% Merlot, 14% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Cabernet Franc, 2% Malbec, aged in tank. Beautiful garnet color with brick reflections. Powerful nose of sour cherry, overripe red fruits, vanilla and spicy notes. Full and fleshe on the palate, supported by a well-integrated tannic structure, which confers power and length, we find notes of strawberry jam on the palate Château Moulin de Mallet has been a family property since 1898. Over the years, the estate has grown to become the main activity of the Courderc family when Serge arrived to work on the property in 1985. It extends today on 40 hectares of vinesSerge has been fully in charge of the property since 1997 and his son Julien, holder of a BTS viti-oeno, joined him in 2000.

Pinot Noir - the classic grape of Burgundy. It's not only the place it shines but it's the place that most growers want to measure their wines against and we start this selection with a terrific wine from the famed Cotes de Nuits village of Morey-Saint-Denis. Remi Jeanniard is a 5th generation vigneron who has 20 acres of prime land, including Grand Cru Clos de la Roche, 1er Cru and village wines in Morey, Chambolle and Gevrey. He's a class act as his old vine Morey 2020 attests. We've matched it up with another non-Burgundian Pinot Noir, Danbury Ridge, from a bit closer to home. As in being from Essex, England. Our thirs wine comes from the other side of the planet, grown in the cool Central Otago region of New Zealand's South Island. Made for young and very enjoyable drinking the Ballasalla Pinot Noir is great value. This case contains: Morey Saint Denis Vieilles Vignes 2022 Dom. Remi Jeanniard Danbury Ridge Pinot Noir, 2022 Essex Ballasalla Pinot Noir 2022 Folding Hill, (Contents may vary from image - the list here is correct.)

The Mol-B Vinho Branco Frisante shows gentle, floral and fruity aromas, whilst the palate is soft with a sparkle and bright grapey fruit with a touch of fresh mango and citrus to the fresh, delightful finish.
