CHAMPAGNE ESSENTIEL BLANC DE BLANCS EXTRA BRUT-Piper-Heidsieck
The nose unveils a bouquet of white flowers, lemon, lime and toasted bread, accented by a subtle minerality. On the palate, vibrant citrus notes meet a refined chalky texture, softened by a touch of acacia honey. A smooth, creamy mouthfeel reflects its extended aging process, leading to a pure, saline finish.

RUBERPAN VALPOLICELLA SUPERIORE 2022-Pieropan
Very perfumed Valpolicella with delicious vermouth-like aromas full of licorice, black pepper, blood oranges and sweet spices. Smooth and silky with crisp acidity and a medium body. Chalky tannins are well-balanced by the fruit concentration. Good length. Drink now.

LONE COTES-DU-RHONE 2024-Domaine du Pegau
Very vibrant and crisp for a Southern Rhone white. Ripe lemon and pomelo aromas are married to delicate creaminess on the medium-bodied palate. I love the interplay of waxy and salty character in the lively finish. A cuvee of 40% clairette, 30% bourboulenc, 20% grenache blanc and 10% ugni blanc. Fermented and matured entirely in stainless steel.

NIEPOORT VINTAGE PORT 2022-Niepoort
This has an intense nose of bramble fruit, together with dried fruit, very floral notes of violets, earth, peppercorn and a touch of graphite. It’s full-bodied with remarkable concentration that is counterbalanced by brilliant acidity and sophisticated tannins. It has an orderly and harmonious sense that will result in an exceptional wine. It's all about balance here — thought-provoking even in such a premature state. A mighty vintage from Niepoort

CUVEE RESERVEE CHATEAUNEUF DU PAPE 2022-Domaine du Pegau
A very dark, structured and full-bodied Chateauneuf-du-Pape with aromas of leather, tar, raw meat and a hint of wild forest berries. Still very youthful and a bit closed, but the abundant fine-grained tannins give this terrific aging potential. A cuvee of 80% grenache, 6% syrah, 4% mourvedre and 10% other traditional grape varieties. Matured for two years in large, neutral oak.

SAULHEIM RIESLING KALKSTEIN ECO 2023-Weingut Thorle
A seriously structured dry riesling for a village wine, with excellent leesy and chalky complexity on the creamy, salty, medium-bodied palate. Still youthful and quite tightly wound in the long, complete finish. Almost at GG level and capable of aging a decade. From organically grown grapes. Vegan.
