2023 Pouilly Fume ‘Nanogyra’, Loic Cailbourdin

Sauvignon Blanc

The Nanogyra Pouilly Fume (formerly 'Les Cornets') is a wonderful example of elegant, concentrated Sauvignon Blanc from the fossil rich Limestone vineyards of Pouilly-sur-Loire.  This terrific wine has a lovely weight on the palate with complex, even slightly exotic, elderflower and hedgerow fruit.  This delicious, unoaked white wine shows wonderful purity, is soft and rounded, and has a beautiful balance on the long, mineral-tinged finish.  

£31.95

2023 Predappio, Chiara Condello, DOC Romagna Predappio

Sangiovese

We love the Predappio Sangiovese from Chiara Condello here at DWC.  Made with the Sangiovese Piccolo clone, the grapes are small and produce concentrated wines when in the hands of such a talented winemaker.  Chiara works organically and utilises long, slow fermentations to produce an intense, concentrated Sangiovese.  Beautifully lifted and perfumed on the nose, the wine is both intense yet delicate, with cherry, plum and raspberry fruit on the palate and wonderfully poised acidity.

£26.95

2023 Quimerino Blanco, Achaval Ferrer, Mendoza

Sauvignon Blanc

The Quimerino Blanco is a blend of 90% Sauvignon Blanc with the remaining 10% made up of Marsanne and Roussanne, fermented seperately at low temperatures in stainless steel. The result is a wonderfully elegant and fresh white wine that is packed with zesty, fresh fruit courtesy of the Sauvignon with a savoury edge coming from the Roussanne and Marsanne.  Really delicious and something a little different from this first class producer.  

£24.95

2023 Regiones Cabernet Franc, Zuccardi, Uco Valley

Cabernet Franc

This is a wonderfully rich and luscious Cabernet Franc from Zuccardi's high altitude vineyards in the Uco Valley.  Bright red and dark fruits, firm tannins and keen acidity on the long finish.

£22.95

2023 Riesling Sekt Trocken, Hanewald-Schwerdt, Pfalz

Riesling

The Hanewald-Schwerdt Riesling Sekt Trocken has a steely lemon tinged nose with red apple and peach underpinned by zesty lime acidity, resulting in a lovely refreshing style.  This is by no means bone dry though, and with 23grams of residual sugar this a fruitier style that is a great alternative to Prosecco for those looking for something a little different.

£21.00

2023 Rioja Graciano, Finca Manzanos, DOCa Rioja

Graciano

The Finca Manzanos Graciano Rioja is packed with youthful charm.  The bright, cherry red colour entices you to a palate loaded with silky dark and red fruits with subtle hints of vanilla from 6 months ageing in oak (70% French/30% American).  The finish is impeccably balanced with beautiful freshness and well-integrated oak. 

£14.95

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.

£49.00

2023 Rully Rouge Chaponniere, Domaine Belleville

The Rully Rouge Chaponniere from Belleville is such a pretty wine, showing lovely fresh strawberry and raspberry fruit on the nose, followed by smoky secondary aromas.  Fruit forward and delicate on the palate, there is a satisfying complexity with good ageing potential.

Sangiovese

Brio is made from Sangiovese grapes grown in the estate vineyards on the gently sloping hills of Scansano, fully expressing the freshness of this grape variety. The combination of altitude, south-westerly exposure, and rich volcanic soils in Scansano create one of Italy's most unique microclimates.  Dense ruby red in colour with fragrant floral aromas, notes of red berries and cherries, and a layer of aromatic herbs.  The medium bodied palate is refined and balanced, with well integrated savouriness and soft tannins carrying through to the long and fruity finish.

2023 Sauvignon Blanc ‘Cabriole’, Idun Winery, WO Bot River

Sauvignon Blanc

The Cabriole Sauvignon Blanc from the Idun winery is an elegant yet expressive Sauvignon from the cool Bot River region of South Africa.  Subtle tropical fruit is beautifully balanced with saline touches and minerality on both the nose and palate, which builds to show an impressive richness whilst never losing freshness and expertly poised acidity.  This terroir driven wine nods more to the classic old world Sauvignon Blanc from Europe than it does the modern Kiwi style, but there is enough character to satisfy lovers of both styles - very impressive.

£19.95

Tempranillo

The Clos de Lom Tempranillo is a wonderful wine, deep red in colour with youthful purple hues. Intense and complex on the nose with hints of black fruits.

Chenin Blanc

The Zevenwacht Tin Mine White is a stunning blend of Chenin, Chardonnay, Roussanne, Viognier and Semillon, coming from vineyards planted on decomposed granite soils which lie between 200 and 350m above sea level.  Ageing in 500 litre French oak barrels helps add to the wonderful texture without detracting from the impeccably integrated exotic, spicey fruit and lively yet balanced acidity.
