Fine Wine Selection Case

Guillaume and Joëlle Vrignaud identify this little part of their holdings in the 1er cru of Fourchaume as producing the best and most expressive Chardonnay fruit. Now with some bottle age the wine is singing whilst always retaining the Chablis identity. Elegant and concentrated with notes of mandarin and golden apple, balanced by a saline acidity. Fermentation period: 5 months. Maturing: on the lees, in stainless steel vat. The vines are 30 years old. soils types Limestone on kimmeridgian.

Delicately floral, with bright pineapple and apricot aromas. The palate is medium to full-bodied, with a mouth-coating, voluptuous texture that avoids seeming fat or heavy, then eases into a long, silky finish.

A tight, mineral wine with classic Hamilton Russell Vineyards length and complexity. Prominent pear and lime fruit aromas and flavours are brought beautifully into focus by a tight line of bright natural acid and a long, dry minerality. An elegant, yet textured and intense wine with a strong personality of both place and vintage.

A blend of 45% Merlot, 38% Cabernet Sauvignon and 17% Cabernet Franc, this is quite an exuberant Potensac. A cracking buy. A well balanced and integrated wine, it has fantastic intensity alongside great freshness.

From the winery responsible for the invention of Amarone! Ruby red, dense and compact, this has a highly perfumed nose – intense and persistent, ethereal, fruity with hints of cherries and dried prunes, dried flowers, sweetly spiced. This is full bodied with a deliciously smooth mouth-feel and velvety tannins.
