More restrained in style, showing subtle notes of grapefruit and nectarine rather than overt aromatics. Bright acidity underscores the fruit, giving the wine lift and freshness. Refreshing and juicy on the finish, with a clean, well-balanced profile that favors precision over opulence. — Aleks Zecevic

The Gustave Lorentz Riesling Reserve is a vibrant expression of Alsace's most renowned grape, showcasing the precision and passion behind the Lorentz family's winemaking. This Riesling Reserve bursts with crisp acidity and dynamic flavors of lemon zest, green apple, and a distinctive minerality that is the hallmark of the region's wines. It pairs exceptionally well with sushi, fresh oysters, or a traditional Alsatian choucroute, bringing out the brightness and complexity of both the wine and the food.

This Grand Cru Pinot Gris has a fine and expressive nose of white flowers, dried fruits and smoky aromas. The palate is full-bodied and well-balanced with complex flavors of marmalade, white truffle and baking spices. This is a round and charming wine with a beautiful, lengthy finish.

An impressive, dense wine with great swathes of ripe fruit and fully integrated tannins. The wine's berry aromas and black tannins give a wine that will develop quickly. Drink from 2027. - Roger Voss

The powerful bouquet displays complex aromas of very ripe berries mixed with fresh fruit. The wood from 60% new barrels is completely incorporated into the wine. The palate is extremely dense and fleshy. The very full tannins are in no way aggressive and leave attractive freshness on the finish with very long aromas.

The 2010 Château Meyney is a full-bodied red Bordeaux blend from the Saint-Estèphe appellation in France, praised as a major vintage sleeper with rich black currant, earthy, and meaty notes. 

The 2018 Senejac is deep garnet-purple coloured with a nose of warm berries, earth, herbs and tobacco plus floral notions. The palate is full-bodied and rich with fine-grained tannins, nice freshness and good length. 90-92 Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Advocate (2019).

"Bottled just one month before my tasting, Clape’s 2023 Cornas opens with a deep, introverted bouquet of cassis, mulberries and licorice mingled with carnal notes. Medium- to full-bodied, dense and structured, it’s built around a firm, somewhat austere palate with a good chassis of youthful tannins that lead to a spicy, lead pencil-inflected finish. Despite its brooding character, it should benefit from time in the cellar."

Winery notes: With 80% Grenache and 20% syrah, this wine is a classic southern Rhône red with ample rich fruit and an appealing herbal freshness. The palate is lusciously textured with plum, strawberry and a touch of spice. Uncomplicated and deliciously drinkable yet serious enough to accompany food.

This wine was created in 1952 by Charles Brotte with the co-operation of local Provençale glass and ceramic craftsmen. The original and surprising bottle shape represents the gnarled and twisted vines typical of the region due to their struggle of growing against the Mistral wind. La Fiole, “Phiala” in latin refers to a “precious bottle”. The bottle is exclusive as we are the only winery permitted to use this shape. “Pape” evokes the cru of Châteauneuf-du-Pape as well as the  presence of the Popes in the region and village in the Middle Ages. The bottle’s golden anthracite grey powder recalls wines of former times.

The wine is unique and of constant quality. A majority of Grenache, an important share of Reserve Wines – 30 to 40% (some of which are 5 years old) give it fruitiness, freshness and maturity, intensity and smoothness. The wine can be savoured immediately or be kept 5 to 7 years.

La Fiole du Pape is the best selling Châteauneuf-du-Pape in the world.

From the sun-soaked limestone terraces of Bandol, this powerful red captures the very soul of Provence. Château de Font Vive is a small, almost secret estate — no flashy marketing, just pure dedication to Mourvèdre and Grenache. In the glass, it’s an explosion of dark cherries, ripe plums, and blackberry, wrapped in peppery spice and Provençal herbs. Silky yet robust tannins give it a bold structure, while a long, warming finish leaves you craving the next sip. Whether you enjoy it now with a hearty lamb stew or cellar it for a decade, this is Bandol as it was meant to be — rich, authentic, unforgettable. If you’re looking for a wine that turns a meal into an occasion, this is it.
