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.

2017 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.

The Sancerre Croq Caillotte is a classic example of how it pays dividends to seek out the smaller growers, as this is a top notch, characterful Sancerre showing citrus and apple fruit, perfectly poised minerality and mouth-watering acidity.  Classy and offers terrific value for money.

This classic Barbera is aged in stainless steel tanks, allowing the primary aromas of the varietal to shine through, including fruity notes such as cherry, orange peel, plum, and berries, all backed up by violet and elderberry floral notes.  Soft tannins and the marked acidity make this charming little wine a very versatile wine when it comes to food matching.
