Phillipe Viet Fleurie Poncie Gamay 2023

An annual treat! After time in concrete with indigenous yeast, the wine is given a stint in oak which comes through in every sip as toasted wood spice. You’ll also get a bracing acidity and plenty of refined cherry liqueur notes.

Poggerino RISERVA Bugialla Chianti Classico 2020

If you’ve never had Brunello before, 2019 was an amazing year, so this will be one to hold onto for a very special occasion. Palate is all silky but bold fruits that'll change your life and have you travelling to Italy ASAP. Decant for perfection.

San Giorgio Brunello di Montalcino 2019

Grown at 400m above sea level over 26 hectares that are surrounded by olive groves. Talk about an Italian vision of perfection. Tastes beautiful, like; cherry skins, deep red fruits and scrub land.

San Giorgio Rosso di Montalcino 2020

Even Keel Pinot Gris 2024

Balanced flavours and a rich expression of Cabernet that flows smooth and with sweet, leathery tannins and some velvet-like dark fruits. Offers both the juicy flow that light-red drinkers love and the spicy depth that bold-red lovers search for.

Leogate Miracle of the Wire Cab Sauv 2021

It’s all about approachability, and with notes of tobacco and a boysenberry-led nose, there’s plenty to love and be lured in by. Great value.

Leogate Miracle of the Wire Merlot 2021

Remember the documentary, Man on Wire? Imagine walking between buildings. Anyway, Leogate is a lightly tropical Sauvignon Blanc that has just a dab of that field/grassy palate we love and plenty of refreshing bite.

Leogate Miracle of the Wire Sauv Blanc 2023

Plump, juicy and round with good bright and fresh acidity washing through to amplify the purity. Gets 8-12 months in concrete to keep things expressive and savoury and punching well above its price for Beaujolais village.

Phillipe Viet Beaujolais-Villages Gamay 2023

Full and rich but still showing plenty of floral elegance. Siblings, Pierro and Benedetta, use precise methods to ensure the best possible combination of concentration, acidity and ripe tannins. Brilliant, age-worthy.

Poggerino Chianti Classico 2022

Mother-daughter winemakers that have made something brilliant! Deliciously open and easy drinking with juicy purple violets and sweet cherries. Made with most Sangiovese, but a little Colorino, Canaiolo and Ciliegiolo thrown in for balance and expression.

Galognano La Foresta Chianti Colli Senesi 2022

Alla Costiera Bianco Costiera 2023

Colour and fruit in abundance for plenty of depth and a lot of super bright squishy berries that are kept savoury with just a pinch of aniseed-like spice. Serve it cool, not cold for the best of times.

David Morgan Quiet Wine Morgan Syrah 2023

A clean and plush expression with sweet whole berries and a flitting carbonic note. Very juicy and very pure, but it’s more than that thanks to a little mineral element and splash of dusty tannin.

Domaine Perol Pierres Dorees Bien Eleve Gamay Beaujolais 2023

Lunaria Charisma Trebbiano 2022

Soft fruits and a really broad appeal. Like a trip to Sicily, this would suit 99% of people so you should gift it if you're feeling generous, and goes well with light, al olio pastas, and sardines on toast.

Caruso & Minini Frappo Rosé 2022

Felsina Chianti Classico 2021

Fleshy strawberries and cherries with some dusky, chalky depth. Fruit was held in concrete and there was no fining or filtering, this is perfect for a LoFi devotee or a red-lover who’s a bit adventurous.

Antonio Camillo Mediterraneo Rosso 2023

In Calabria the old men wander the barren lands, never over-exerting themselves, just teasing out a thirst that they wash away with a Greco full of honeysuckle and a stony minerality. They’re seasoned Bianco drinkers over there.

Antonio Scala Ciro Bianco 2023

Old school approach to Etna Rosso. That means liquorice root, soil-toned tannins and delicate fruit flavours that are long and persistent. These wines are cool to see, they remind us that Etna was producing brilliant wines way before it became a fashionable wine region.
