Description

The Carte d’Or Coteaux du Layon from Baumard has a very attractive honeyed nose, with lifted yellow fruits and more golden tropical elements such as mango, guava and pineapple. It has a particularly tropical character and a very fresh feel on the palate, with steely minerality and a zippy background acidity giving invigorating tartness to keep the wine luscious and buoyant. The rounded, approachable finish has good length.


We are big fans of the wines from Baumard and with some of them ranking as some of the very best available from this part of the Loire they are priced accordingly!  Thankfully, the terrific Carte d’Or is extremely well-priced and offers a wonderful introduction into both the wines of the region and the Baumard style in general.

2025 Pinot Noir Rose, Villa Wolf, Pfalz

Pinot Noir

The ever popular Villa Wolf Pinot Noir Rose has a short period on the skins to create a beautiful pale salmon pink colour, the juice is run off and fermented at a cool temperature in stainless steel.  The wine is a beautiful balance of generous juicy red fruits, hints of mineral undertones and crisp, thirst quenching acidity. This is one to be filed in the 'Dangerously Drinkable' category.

Cortese

The Bric Sassi vineyard enjoys a privileged position in the Gavi growing area. Here the vineyards mostly face due South, and are made up of 40 year old vines. The result is a complex wine with delicious white peach notes on the nose leading onto more stone fruit on the palate as well as delicious honeydew melon.

2023 Kumeu Village Pinot Gris, Kumeu

Pinot Gris/Pinot Grigio

The Kumeu Village Pinot Gris is an utterly delicious example of the grape.  Lively stone fruit and exotic notes on the nose and palate with a beautiful texture that adds weight without detracting from the purity and freshness of fruit.  This is lovely to drink on it's own but also a stellar match to a number of dishes, including spicy foods.

2018 Extra Brut, D’Urberville Vineyard, Dorset

Champagne Blend

Perfectly sited on protected, south-facing, chalk soils, the D'Urberville vineyard produces perfectly ripe grapes for exuberant, fruit led English sparkling wines.  We are proud to represent them and love the fact that it is less than a mile from the shop as the crow flies.  Zesty, fresh and very easy drinking this is a great aperitif style of English fizz.
