Description

The Wild Ferment Assyrtiko by Gaia is an astoundingly good, highly complex white wine grown in the rugged vineyards of Santorini.  Grapes are hand harvested with the free run juice fermented with natural yeast in a mixture of stainless steel (45%), old barrels (45% equally mixed between French & American oak and Acacia), and ceramic vat.  Fermentation is natural with batonnage and 6 months ageing on fine lees prior to bottling.


The wine itself is beautifully complex with aromatics of the acacia wood mixed with vanilla, toasty oak, citrus and touches of smoke.  The palate is layered and complex mixing citrus fruits, mineral notes and a refreshing salinity to the long, tangy finish.  Delicious and distinctive!

The Riesling Feinherb fromWeingut Thorle is a beautifully poised off-dry style of Riesling with a bright yellow colour.

Pinot Noir

Fournillon have 23 hectares of vines in Chablis in the cool, north of burgundy and are predominantly producers of classic, steely Chablis (see our fantastic value 'house' Chablis), but they also produce some red and this delicious cremant from 100% Pinot Noir.  All fruit is hand-harvested and vinified carefully to produce an easy drinking, fruit-forward fizz that is well balanced and nicely rounded with a fine mousse.  Excellent as an apertif.
