Description
The Flametree SRS (Sub-Regional-Series) Chardonnay reveals classic grapefruit, white peach and dried pear fruits. This gives way to barrel ferment and sulphide complexities, providing a lovely savoury oyster shell/saline character and adding to the wines complexity and overall purity.
Flametree Wines is located on the picturesque shores of Geographe Bay in Western Australia, entry point to the renowned Margaret River wine region. The Towner family built their state of the art winery in 2007 which helps demonstrate the Company’s unwavering commitment to excellence. Its design ensures minimal fruit handling and significant investment has been made in equipment and technology that retains the integrity and quality of fruit. Flametree draws on the strengths of the region by growing and sourcing fruit from mature vineyards in the best sub-regions, crafting wines that exhibit structure, perfume and elegance.
The SRS range represents the very best the winery can produce, and the fruit for this Chardonnay was whole bunch pressed into French Oak puncheons (35% new) before undergoing full wild yeast fermentation with minimal sulphur additions. The wine was then aged for 10 months with lees stirring to promote texture and also 20 % of the barrels went through malolactic fermentation.

2025 Gavi di Gavi Bric Sassi, Roberto Sarotto
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.

NV Brut, Champagne Germar Breton, Aube
Champagne Blend
This delightful, and rather smart looking, Champagne comes from the relatively young Champagne House of Germar Breton that was established in 2005. Based in the southerly Aube region, they make approachable, terrific value wines from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. This wonderful introduction to their range shows expressive brioche, green apple and quince fruit and has wonderfully balanced acidity. Germar Breton are certainly a Champagne House to keep an eye on.

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.

2023/24 Rully 1er Cru la Pucelle, Domaine Belleville
Chardonnay
An expressive bouquet of butter, mouth watering citrus and fleshy white fruits. The Pucelle is one of our favourite Domaine Belleville white wines, with a beautiful structure and impeccable balance on the palate. The complex palate shows a surprising mellowness backed by toasty notes and a very classy touch of minerality on the long, lingering finish.
