The David Moreau Santenay Rouge 2022 is an elegant, medium-bodied Pinot Noir from Burgundy. It features vibrant red berry aromas (cherries and crushed strawberries), earthy mineral touches, and a refined, graceful structure. It offers a perfect balance of bright acidity and fine-grained tannins

Blanc de Blancs champagnes are a Chardonnay lover's dream with nougat, vanilla, fresh cream and nutty flavours combining in a smooth textured dry, full bodied bubbly.

It's made from Grand Cru vineyards in the villages of Avize and Ogier in the Côte des Blanc; the Champagne region's epicentre of Chardonnay. 

This high quality sparkling wine is a dry style with 9 grams per litre of residual sugar and it is fresh, soft and rich in style. The wine was disgorged in July 2019. 

Barossa Valley - 65% Montepulciano and 35% Primitivo - Seasoned French and American oak for Ten months
6-years-old vines  (you’ve got to start somewhere!) from Vine Vale and Tanunda

Colour: Intense purple. Aroma: Perfumed and bursting with red roses and ripe Satsuma plum combined with black olive and brambly spice hints. 

Palate: Juicy blue and red fruits and brambly spice come together in this medium to full-bodied wine with fine suede-like tannins adding to the mouthfeel. The fresh and bright fruit flows through to the slightly savoury, spicy and youthfully austere finish.

A darker shade of ruby. The nose has a slightly Mediterranean character rich in spices, vivacious and charming at the same time. Forest fruits and discreet oaky notes. When tasting, it is firm, still it has velvety texture. On the palate we can discover the dominating fruity character again along with some toasty notes, which contribute to the richness of flavours in the wine. A wine full of flavours with long aftertaste. Taste it with pleasure!

APPELLATION: DHC – Villány wine region

SOIL: dolomite, marl, limestone or occasionally sandy loess

VINEYARD: Pannon region, PDO

GRAPE VARIETY: Kékfrankos

WINE MAKING: Matured in large wooden Hungarian oak.

ORGANOLEPTIC SPECIFICATION: Lifted, earthy aromatics, brick dust and blueberries, cocoa powder and hints of beefy gamey complexity follow and then saturate the palate. From Hungary, the tannins are fleshy, and smooth, and there’s an almost creamy, savoury character running through it.

TECHNICAL DATA
ALCOHOL:13%
ACIDITY:4,7 g/l

100% Furmint from four vineyards growing on volcanic sites in the famous Tokaj region of Hungary. Fermentation and maturation are both in 100% stainless steel to preserve the fruit forward nature of the wine. That said there is plenty to texture and complexity with almond notes and refreshing minearlity.  

A secondary label from Billecart-Salmon offering the same stunning quality at a lower price point.

A sumptuous golden yellow in the glass with a very fine and crystalline bead. The nose is impressive with aromas of brioche, almonds, butter, apple, and pear leading to a round citrus mineral palate with very good balance between acidity and fruit.

This is New Zealand's first nigori-zake, handcrafted in Queenstown.  The distinctive milky colour is caused by residual rice particles left unfiltered in the sake.  Nigori-zake is an easily recognisable drink, and is popular as a great accompaniment to sweet and spicy dishes.

Our brand is Zenkura - while 'zen' means all, 'kuro' means black - a simple but powerful combination born in NZ.  We start with water from the snow-capped Southern Alps and special sake rice that has been milled to remove the outer 40%, leaving only the best part of each grain for the fermentation to begin.

Best enjoyed chilled.

Now we're talking next level. 

Domaine de la Solitude Chateauneuf-du-Pape is an exciting dry, full bodied, ageworthy white wine from the Southern Rhone's most famous appellation. It's a blend of Roussanne 40%, Clairette 30%, Grenache Blanc 20%, Bourboulenc and Picpoul 10%. Approximately 40% of the wine was aged in barrels on fine lees for 10 months and its smooth, full body and savoury flavours are beautifully balanced by the high acid components in the blend, namely Roussanne and Bourbolenc. 

Here is a wine to enjoy in a large glass right now or to age further for at least six to seven years, potentially beyond that. It will reward short, medium and long term drinking.
