This terrific Chablis from Domaine Fournillon shows typical minerality and flintiness coupled with generous, ultra fresh fruit which makes them broadly appealing and superb value for money.

2023 Vouvray Coeur de Silex, Bernard Fouquet, AC Vouvray

Chenin Blanc

Produced from several vineyards with Silex (flint) soils, this delicious Vouvray is pale yellow with a very reserved nose. The palate is dominated by minerals, with citrus, apple and lemon peel fruit. Floral aromas balance out the minerality with some lovely balanced acidity coming through on the finish. 

£17.95

2023 Chardonnay, Hanewald-Schwerdt, Pfalz

Chardonnay

The Hanewald-Schwerdt Chardonnay reveals citrus & stone fruits with nuances of melons and herbs. Silky, lively with nice acidity.There is the merest whiff of old oak to this wine which is used purely to some softness to the mouthfeel.  This is very appealing and an extremely enjoyable take on Chardonnay.

£16.50

2024 Verdicchio di Matelica, ColleStefano

Verdicchio

Castelli di Jesi tends to hog the limelight when it comes to Verdicchio but we feel that the wines from Matelica tend to have a slight edge in terms of interest and complexity.  ColleStefano is a wonderful organic property nestled among its private vineyards above Castelraimondo.  The altitude (450m above sea level) provides protection from the sea winds and makes for a temperate climate. Their immaculate vineyards are part of a broader self-sustainable, eco-friendly and balanced system, with the soils only treated with organic manure, thus minimizing the presence of copper.
