White
The wine: Chablis
1er Cru Vaillons
Domaine Billaud Simon, Burgundy, France 2007: £69.00
I discovered the wine maker on a trip to
Burgundy last year. I really learned a lot on this trip. Here the
soil has an important effect on the wine. In the best sites, it is
limestone overlaid with a layer of Kimmeridgian clay, which is very
rich in marine fossils. Dampt`s vineyard is directly located within
this area. For me it was magnificent to see the different
parcels and the difference in soil. The young wine maker produces a
mineral and briny wine with remarkable vivacity.
The wine: Chassagne
Montrachet £85.00

Chassagne-Montrachet,
Les Mazures, Paul Pillot 2008. Paul, the wine maker, is a
charming grower with a cellar that has not seen any posh
improvements since the day it was excavated seemingly. It is
directly under his house therefore many visits a day help craft
this jewel. Paul and the surroundings added to the ambience and
ultimately the pleasure of the wines.

Red
The wine:
Olpaio,
Val di Cornia
Suvereto,Merlot,Cabernet Sauvignon, 2004
£89.00
Special Selection, just 3.000 bottles.
Excellent wine made on a Pomerol Style. A
first quality wine from the Maremma Coast with plenty of
blackcurrants, plums and cedar wood. Fine Tannin, full bodied,
rich, stylish and intense with a long length, elegant and
harmonious.
The wine:
Châteauneuf du Pape, Domaine de Cristia, Rhône, France
2008 £60.00
On a recent visit to the Rhône Valley
by our Sommelier, Peter Foulds, he came across this full bodied,
spicy wine. A beautiful dark colour with a slight purplish glint
and crystallized fruits and prunes on the nose.
