Reverdito Barbera D’alba ‘Butti’ 2019
Rust en Vrede 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon
Expressive black fruit jumps out of the glass. Juicy black cherry and cassis combine with blueberries, licorice and sandalwood. Full bodied and intense on the palate. Fine grained, grippy tannins balance well with a fresh, black-fruit acidity. Tobacco, nutmeg and savory spice bring complex layers to mulberry and bramble fruit that round out the palate. A typically well-structured Cabernet with excellent length.
91pts Wine Spectator: ‘A fresh, harmonious Cabernet, offering ripe boysenberry and cassis fruit flavors counterpointed by savory notes of bay leaf, graphite, smoke and woodsy spices, with refined tannins. Drink now through 2028.’
Lorgeril Chateau de Pennautier Viognier 2020
Bright golden yellow in colour, the aromas of yellow-fleshed peaches, passion fruit, apricot are accented by floral notes of rose petal and lime blossom. On the palate, it has a rich, smooth mouthfeel kept in check by fresh acidity. Excellent balance, vivid and smooth. Ideal with a seasonal salad, seafood, poultry, white meat or grilled fish.
Tinel Blondelet ‘Buffatte’ Pouilly Fume 2020
Champalou 2020 Vouvray Sec 2019
A delicate straw yellow in colour. Aromas of green apples and quince. Dry, supple and elegant on the palate with further green fruit notes. The crisp finish makes this an ideal food wine. Try with a wild rice salad, escalopes of pork with a fennel and green bean salad or with a simple grilled trout.

Springfield Methode Ancienne Chardonnay 2020
The Springfield Méthode Ancienne Chardonnay is special because it was made using ancient techniques rarely used in the New World: The fermentation takes place spontaneously with wild yeast in a combination of new and used French oak barrels. There is no fining or filtration. Thus, a wine of distinctive and classical character, it will develop slowly and is made to last a lifetime. Nuances of lime, cointreau and oranges – a big wine with classical character.
