Description

The Alma Gemela White Field Blend offers striking aromas of floral and citrus notes layered with hints of white fruit and subtle vanilla.  Medium-bodied and texturally complex with a fresh, elegant finish.  Truly delicious and a great example of a modern Argentine blend.


Mariana Onofri, Sommelier & Winemaker, and Adán Giangiulio, Viticulturist, are from Lavalle, one of the oldest wine growing regions in the north of Mendoza. In 2014 they started Onofri Wines, a boutique winery project that focuses on sustainable farming and minimal intervention winemaking. Their goal is to produce wines which are the result of micro-vinifications: made in an artisanal way, rescuing old vines, historical regions and grape varieties, as well as innovating with grapes that display a great adaptation in Mendoza.


It is made up of  40% Marsanne, 40% Roussanne and 20% Chardonnay, co-fermented in stainless steel at low temperatures with native yeasts. Partial malolactic fermentation allows the wine to retain a degree of freshness and not become too ‘flabby’.  Ageing is for 10 months in French oak barrels, 20% of which are new with the remainder 3rd and 4th use.

Coteaux du Layon  Carte dOr.JPG

2022/23 Carte d’Or, Baumard, AC Coteaux du Layon, Half Bottle

Chenin Blanc

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.

CRemant de Jura Cuvee Bethanie.JPG

NV Cremant Du Jura ‘Cuvee Bethanie’, Fruitiere Vinicole Arbois

Chardonnay

One of our best selling sparkling wines, this stunning Cremant is given added complexity by the addition of 2cl of Vin Jaune at dosage.  The result adds a rich, nutty and savoury edge to what is otherwise traditional method 100% Chardonnay, which tasted blind could pass for an aged Champagne.  Not everyone's cup of tea but certainly popular and curious enough to keep customers coming back for more!
