Château de Fesles Bonnezeaux is a yellow, almost ochre-coloured wine. It has an expressive, vinous nose with notes of lemon, citrus fruit and white flowers. This wine is nicely alcoholic, warm and spicy on the palate. This Bonnezaux has a semi-dry style and a slight taste of peach kernel. Bonnezeaux is 100% Chenin Blanc from the Loire Valley.
Covering 68 villages of the Pyrénées-Orientales and nine villages of the Aude, Rivesaltes is the largest appellation for vins doux naturels.
These wines are made using the three main varieties of Grenache Blanc, Grenache Gris, Grenache Noir and Macabeu. Malvoisie and Muscat can also be used in some styles.
Vin doux naturel is made using an addition of neutral grape spirit to stop fermentation early, therefore retaining more of the grape's residual sugar.
The wines are aged oxidatively developing rancio, nuts and caramel flavors which are balanced by the high acidity of the grapes used. These wines can age for eternity.
Excellent medium dry Riesling from one of the Mosel River's best producers, Weingut Fritz Haag. Refreshing, crisp and lively with concentrated lime zest and juicy flavoursome style followed by a long finish.
The Haag family has making wine since 1605 and been instrumental in the development of Brauneberger, a place recognised as one of the Mosel’s best wine areas since the sixth century. The winery is headed today by Oliver Haag, whose father Wilhelm (son of Fritz) became recognised as a Riesling world leader, awarded the deceptively simple title of Winegrower of the Year in 1994.
Nosiola is an ancient grape variety native to Trentino, once widespread throughout the region but whose cultivation is now restricted to the Valle dei Laghi and the hills above Trento and Pressano. This is a golden coloured, amphora aged white wine. This is a very complex and aromatic wine with great acidity and a rich texture. Foradori uses organic and biodynamic methods to produce wines of great elegance and excellent terroir expression.
Try a wine that will blow your mind. It’s one of the great white wines of the world - and one of our most highly collectible Italian wines. It’s made from the grape that many describe as Italy’s greatest white - Verdicchio, from the Marche region in central Italy.
This dry nutty white spent around 140 months on the lees in stainless steel and cement and about 12 months in the bottle before release. This lengthy process has added depth, body and character to the already zesty lemon flavours of Verdicchio.
If you’re looking for a special collectable or a quirky, sensational dry white to drink at a special dinner party of occasion, here it is. A wine that can age superbly, made from one of the most under-rated, over performing grape varieties.
Quaffable, rich Primitivo from the Puglia region in southern Italy. Ruby red with violet reflections in the glass. The nose is fruity and aromatic with strawberry, blackberry and raspberry notes. On the palate, berry flavours continue with some spicy heat. The finish is fruity, with complex liqourice and almond notes. Pair with roast meats or an aged cheese.
Casal di Serra Verdicchio was first made in 1983 from grapes grown in the Montecarotto Vineyard. It now includes grapes from three other vineyards, all of which are fermented with natural yeasts in stainless steel tanks to preserve freshness and fruit flavours. It is then aged in tank for five months in contact with yeast lees but with no malolactic fermentation.
Verdicchio tastes great with Seafood, the ideal match with Verdicchio, as is soft cheese.
The Marche region
The altitude vineyards and sea breezes in the warm Mediterranean Marche region both combine to create a wine with vibrant freshness and bright acidity as well as a medium to full body. Verdicchio is nearly always made as a 100% varietal dry white and also lends itself to high quality sparkling wine, thanks to its robust acidity.
The earliest written mention of the Verdicchio grape is in 1569 and it makes some of the most age worthy dry whites in all of Italy, even at relatively modest prices such as this outstanding wine from Umani Ronchi, which is now organically certified and represents one of our greatest hidden treasures on our white wine shelves.
Buy it by the case and watch its tasty flavours unfold over four to five years, potentially longer.
This wine comes from the Piana Rotaliano area in the Adige Valley, tucked between the Dolomites. Despite numerous attempts to acclimatise it in other regions, Teroldego remains deeply bound to its mountains and the unique environment of the Piana Rotaliana. Think Cru Beaujolais in terms of style, with plenty of fruit but enough structure and complexity to back it up. This is a fruit forward wine with complexity, length and structure. Biodynamic and organic.
A rewarding, savoury and deliciously complex red blend of two great Italian red grapes - Barbera and Nebbiolo, which combine very happily in this juicy, earthy, sensationally complex and layered red. It is medium bodied, completely dry and rewardingly savoury, without any aspect of astringency. It's an outstanding wine at the price.
Buy at least half a dozen. This is great.
Punset are a certified organic winery from the Piedmont region in Italy. These wines champion sustainable agriculture and a hands-off, terroir driven approach to winemaking. This 100% Barbera wine is very fruit-forward, with great intensity and complexity. The palate is round and balanced, with great structure and fresh acidity.
