WinesBY THE GLASS

Falesco Vitiano, Grechetto (Umbria, ITA ) Not heard of Grechetto? Well remember the name! Normally used with other varietals to create the more widely known Orvieto Classico. Lovely straw yellow in colour with hints of green, this wine has delicate citrus & floral aromas and is fresh & vibrant on the palate. It ’s wonderfully rich & full-bodied with great depth of flavour, a trademark characteristic of Grechetto that implores interest!

La Giustiniana, Gavi di Gavi ‘Lugara’ (Piedmont, ITA) Lugara is a single vineyard in Gavi, Piedmont that produces this wonderful liquid…. in case you were wondering! Pure & well balanced, this unoaked wine gives fresh apples & pears on the nose whilst the palate is riper with lush golden apples, fresh almonds & honey. The characteristic lively twist on the finish found in all good Gavi ’s, is there in abundance and it ’s thoroughly enjoyable. Trust me!

Morgadio da Torre, Alvarinho (Vinho Verde, POR) The Alvarinho grapes used to make this wine are grown in a vineyard which dates back to 1603 and is situated in the North-East part of the Vinho Verde region, generally regarded as the areas’ best sub-region. That ’s all well & good, but is it a good wine I hear you ask? Damn right it is! Vibrant with stone fruits & a leafy, nettle character on the nose. Its clean, fresh minerality comes through on the palate with crisp acidity and hints of peaches & apples.

This wine is too good for toast-drinking, my dear.

You don’t want to mix emotions up with a wine like that.

You lose the taste.Ernest Hemingway, The Sun Also Rises, 1926

White Wine

Ca Dei Frati Lugana “I Frati” (Lombardy, ITA) Grown from Turbiana grapes very close to Lake Garda, Ca Dei Frati ’s fantastic Lugana has a light and clear colour with a concentrated yet fresh perfume of white flowers, peaches and ripe lemons. In the mouth it has excellent depth and balance, with a lovely richness and crisp, lively finish. Big and sexy and my god, what a beautiful bottle too!

Domaine de Bel Air Pouilly Fume (Loire, FRA)Pale lemon in colour, this wine is clean with crisp citrus fruit notes and subtle white flowers. A firm mineral palate has excellent balance of fine, almost salty acidity with intense lemon, flint and pear flavours and a long finish. A literal medium bodied mineral explosion. Great for an afternoon of quaffing, so put the shopping on hold and…..well….Quaff!!

Ca Dei Frati Lugana “Brolettino” (Lombardy, ITA)This barrel aged, bigger brother of the “I Frati” from the outstanding vineyards at Ca Dei Frati gives you everything you want and need from a big, bold white wine. Excellent balance & great structure follow on effortlessly from the initial explosion of intense aromas such as stone fruits and hints of vanilla spice. Putting the wine straight into your mouth reveals rich peach characters with a creamy, honeyed texture lifted by stony minerality. A rich, concentrated freshness on the finish makes way, ready for another mouthful. Don’t you dare hesitate! Pour. Drink. Repeat. Be delighted!

Red Wine

Vignetti del Salento “I Muri” Primitivo (Puglia, ITA) Manduria, in Puglia, has long been producing amazing reds from its Primitivo grapes. This is no exception. The warm climate of Southern Italy and nutrient rich soils harvest inky, tannic grapes of high alcohol content and rustic notes of earth & spice with a surprising sweetness. This one doesn’t mess around! 100% Primitivo gives a deep ruby red colour with violet reflections and makes way for red berry aromas and hints of spice. Well balanced and medium bodied, it hits you with firm tannins and knock out flavours. BOOM!!!!...or should I say, FRUIT BOOM!!!!

Alpha Zeta ‘R’ Valpolicella Superiore Ripasso (Veneto, ITA)Ripasso or ‘ repassed’ is the traditional process of adding the leftover skins, seeds and dried grapes from the fermentation of Amarone wine, to the batch of Valpolicella wine for a period of extended maceration. The result is one of opulence and richness. Red & black cherry aromas derive from the Ripasso technique, in abundance, and the full bodied yet supple structure throw bags of character your way. The intensity of its ripe plum and cherry flavours follow through to the long finish. Soft and lavish…like chocolate!

Vigne Marina Coppi ‘Sant Andrea’ Barbera (Piedmont, ITA)Marina Coppi‘s late father, Fausto Coppi was one of the greatest cyclists of the 20th century. Coincidently, he was born in Castellania where this vineyard is situated and where his grandson Francesco Bellochio effortlessly churns out superb quality wines…well, just like this one! Straight away the wine shows you what it ’s all about with its wonderful colour. Its bouquet holds great intensity and hints of cherry and wild strawberries that remain true to the finish. On the palate, the wine is complex, rounded and supple with a delicious fresh fruit character. Such a bright & youthful wine, it ’s sure to have anti ageing properties....but don’t quote me on that!

Poggio San Polo Rosso Di Montalcino (Tuscany, ITA)100% Sangiovese grapes go into producing this gem from Montalcino, Tuscany. In the glass, it ’s bright and glossy and sits with an almost effortless elegance. On the nose, the aromas of fresh berries, Morello cherries and blackberries are complimented by a hint of vanilla spice. A fragrant and intense wine with smooth, finely balanced tannins and a persistent aromatic finish that just keeps on going. Wonderful stuff.

Red Wine

Ca Dei Frati, Ronchedone (Veneto, ITA ) Deep, dark and mysterious pretty much sums up this wine. The nose gives a vibrant, fruit driven bouquet with succulent aromas of blueberries, freshly made jam, a touch of balsam and some herbal notes which follow densely through to the rounded, red and black fruits all over the palate. Its clean and savoury character is balanced with lovely rounded tannins and a freshness on the finish which is typical of the area’s Marzemino grape. Get yourself acquainted, it won’t bite! Seriously though, there is nothing to not like about this wine.

Alpha Zeta ‘A’ Amarone (Veneto, ITA)Matt Thomson is from New Zealand. He’s a winemaker. He’s also behind this absolute classic from Verona. You may as well just give him a round of applause for this one, because it ’s absolutely gorgeous! The south facing vineyards where this wine is produced are warmer than most in the region. Beneficial to the development of the grapes and helping to produce a deep and intensely perfumed wine it gives hints of dried cherries, blueberries and spiced autumn fruits. Get it into your mouth and its powerful but with a delicate balance and spiced, intensely concentrated cherries. The subtlest touch of smoke completes the juicy, long finish. And tannins? So ripe and soft, they are almost nonexistent! To paraphrase a good friend, “My friend…this wine??…… No tannins!”

Luigi Baudana, Barolo Serralunga (Piedmont, ITA)This wine is the by-product and coming together of 3 legends of the Piedmont region. Luigi Baudana, the Vajra family whose winery now runs the smaller Baudana winery and the age old, nutrient rich Helvetian soils of Serralunga. For 30 years Luigi coupled a tight selection of grapes and a gentle ageing process in his production and Vajra have only strived to improve on that. An even more acute selection and longer ageing process of 42 months now lovingly nurtures this amazing liquid. One taste and the results speak for themselves. Power and structure comes from those soils (estimated at 14 million years old!) and elegance and sweetness of fruit from the grapes. Cherries & plums on the nose accented with spice and liquorice. Pull yourself away from the dreamy aromas and get this wine in your mouth and you’re blown away by its intensity and power only to revel in its opulence. Firm tannins balanced by lush fruit add to its complexity and the deep, long finish is something to marvel at. Dark, imposing, sensual & racy, this truly is marvelous Barolo.

sufficient ChampagneDorothy Parker

Charles Heidiesck is one of the most admired Champagne houses thanks to the unrivalled and consistently high quality of its wines. Their current range, three of which are listed below, is one of the most awarded collections of wine in the world.

This winemaking legacy, paired with the house’s flamboyant history since its foundation in 1851 by the man who would become known as ‘Champagne Charlie’, makes it a unique offering from Champagne: a house with great, hand-crafted wines, heritage and proven quality.

ChampagneBY THE BOTTLE

Charles Heidsieck NV Brut Reserve (Champagne, FRA) Radiant pale gold with fine, persistent bubbles. Complex pastry aromas, with an opulent combination of ripe apricot, mango and greengages, dried fruits, pistachio and almond. The palate begins with a silky smooth sensation, developing into ripe fleshy apricot, melon and enticing plum pastry notes and delicate spice. A perfect balance of freshness and generosity. You really need this Champagne in your life!

Charles Heidsieck NV Rose Reserve (Champagne, FRA) Almost coral-like in colour, this a deliciously fresh wine which expresses the complexity of the Charles Heidsieck spirit perfectly. On the nose it gives intense fresh strawberry aromas alongside a jamminess with hints of peach and warm notes of cinnamon & brioche. A lively, vivacious palate full of red fruit, a silky-rich texture and good minerality. A touch of citrus caps off this decadent Champagne.

Carles Heidsieck Blanc de Millenaires 1995 (Champagne, FRA) What an utterly exceptional wine this is! It ’s made from 100% Chardonnay, and with 22 years complexity it displays all the noble characteristics of mature Chardonnay and its incredible potential for ageing. Pale gold in colour with subtle pale green hues, it is surprisingly bright & shiny considering it ’s over 20 years old. The bouquet is balanced with a wonderful richness and distinct pastry aromas expressing full buttery notes, intense cinnamon and vanilla spice. In the mouth, you get the pleasure of enjoying the wines silky notes of candied apricots, quince, dried fruits, hazelnuts and almonds. It has a stunning concentration of flavours and is reaching its highest points of power, complexity, elegance and refinement only available to the very, very best in Champagne. An absolute masterpiece.
