NV Blanc de Blancs ‘La Signa-Terres’, Champagne Paul Lebrun
Chardonnay
The La Signa-Terres from Paul Lebrun shows an incredible butter-like creaminess alongside orchard fruits, citrus and almond aromas. Toasty, but with a soft palate thanks to the mild dosage and a creamy petillance which doesn't overpower the delicate texture and freshness. The finish is lengthy with hints of toast, zest and salted almonds.

2015 Cava Gran Reserva Brut Real, Heretat Mastinell
White Blend
With a staggering 8 years on lees, this terrific Cava Gran reserva has to be one of the best value sparkling wines that we've come across recently. The wine shows a lovely golden colour in the glass with delicate bubbles. The floral nose has hints of pear, apple and star anise and leads to a wonderfully balanced and elegant palate.

NV Voulez Vous Couche Avec Moi? Vincent Couche
Chardonnay
Vincent Couche is a biodynamic grape grower in Champagne who also owns some vines in Burgundy, where he makes this de-classified Cremantde Bourgogne. Taking a 'Grower Chamagne' approach to cremant, 30% of the grapes are oak fermented and aged in a solera so do not conform to the regulations of Cremant. Who cares when the wine is this good! Vibrant and amazingly drinkable, this zesty, complex and downright drinkable fizz is true real delight, showing zesty mineral tinged citrus, baked apple and whiffs of brioche. No added sulphur makes it all the more appealing.
