2024/25 Delicado PX, Bodegas Ximnenz-Spinola

Pedro Ximenez

The Ximenez Spinola Delicado is utterly delicious, showing an enticing deep golden colour, with exceptional aromas from the sun dried grapes and pronounced notes of orange peel and herbs. Smooth, round and intense on the palate with currants, dried apricots, toasted wood and immense concentration of fruit on the palate.

2012 Quarts De Chaume, Baumard, Half Bottle

Chenin Blanc

We have a soft spot for the incredible Chenin Blancs from Baumard and gems such as this truly spectacular wine highlight the quality of winemaking at this Domaine.  Baumard eschew traditional trellising methods for this part of the Loire and have also flown in the face of tradition by switching excluisively to screwcaps for their range.  The Quarts de Chaume vineyard enjoys a superb terroir and a unique situation producing wines of rare elegance.  This remarkable wine is wonderfuly textured and manages to comine power and clarity alongside richness and precision. Complex with floral bouquets and notes of citrus and orchard fruit with impeccable acidity, this is a wine to savour.

The Jurançon Clos Uroulat is a stunning dessert wine made from 100% Petit Manseng, late harvested in early November.  Wonderfully fresh, this botrytis free wine has plenty of honeyed, orange tinged floral fruit with precise and perfectly poised acidity.

2021/22 Brachetto d’Acqui, Giacomo Bologna, Half Bottle

Brachetto

The Braida Brachetto d'Acqui is a semi-sparkling (frizzante) red sweet wine with a bright ruby colour. The nose is youthful and exuberant and bursts with aromas of red fruits like wild strawberry, raspberry & grape. The palate surprises with its fresh, refined and mineral notes, freshened by crisp acidity and fine, elegant fizz. The fruity notes are complemented by subtle hints of violet and rose.
