The 2021 has elements of Alain Graillot's Crozes (peppery, fruit-forward Syrah) combined with warming, baked fruit and spice notes that transport the drinker to North Africa. You don't have to accompany it with a tagine, but your guests will probably appreciate it if you make the effort!
Lovely, flavourful and characterful Gewürztraminer.
Enticing smoky grilled pork, ginger beef, cinnamon and grapefruit nectar on the very Gewürztraminer nose. Then flavours similar to the aromas and - though not especially complex - delicious and very accessible.
Domaine Albert Mann Cuvée Albert Riesling uncomplicated nature and bright, fruity flavors seem to appeal to almost everyone.
Fruity and vibrant, then more stern and almost tight in the middle, with slightly austere flavours of fresh citrus and herbs on the medium-long, zingy finish.
The 2022 Domaine Alône Rosé shows a fragrant nose of citrus zest, red berries, delicate spices, and fine salinity, reflecting its sandy-Quartz terroir. On the palate, it is medium-bodied yet deeply textured, offering vibrant cranberry and stone fruit flavors underpinned by iodized minerality and a structured frame from Grenache, Cinsault, and Syrah. A lingering, gently textured finish combines herbal tones and saline freshness, making it elegantly expressive and distinct among Provence rosés.
Very expressive and perfumed and made in pure juicy and early drinking style Cabernet Franc.
Very fresh and fine with lovely light texture and very little tannin this is a perfect wine for spring and summer and early drinking.
Super attractive and smashable.
Some seriously stunning bubbles that would have a 0 at the end of the price tag if Champagne was written on the label.
The new vintage is bright and perfumed, packed with succulent cherry fruit and finishing with crunchy freshness alongside a lick of mineral and dried chilli—a fine release, and just what you want from this type of agile, juicy Cabernet Franc. As Chinon’s most famous son, François Rabelais, once wrote: “Drink always before the thirst, and it will never come upon you.”
Filled with crushed rock minerality, mouth-watering, ripe stone fruits and a waft of sea breeze, it’s a pulpy and classically structured wine, with a rocky texture complemented by racy freshness and Chablis-level length.
The texture is succulent, with the rippling splendour of stone fruit and citrus-skin zestiness to go with its charged acidity and jangle of minerals. The three Ps: power, poise, and persistence. A super villages.
Light and juicy red with cherry and raspberry notes, subtle earthiness, and soft tannins. Delightful everyday Burgundy blend.
Crisp white Burgundy with zesty lemon, green apple, and subtle hazelnut notes; elegant and minerally finish.
Rich, buttery Chardonnay with vibrant citrus fruit, a flinty edge, and a long, elegant finish.
Crisp white Burgundy with lemon zest, ripe pear, and subtle hazelnut notes; vibrant acidity and mineral finish.
