Weddings and Large Gatherings

Crisp, gently saline and textured with luscious stone fruit flavours and a hit of exotic spice. Plenty going on here, with quite a sophisticated flourish for this level.

"The Sumeire family have been making wine here for 800 years so it's fair to say they know what they're doing..."

For when you fancy the fruit, finesse and delicacy of Sancerre but not the budget, Bellevue offers spectacular value for money.

A sumptuous blend of Sangiovese and Merlot from one of Chianti's most ancient estates, representing over 5 centuries of Siennese winemaking. Loves grilled red meats, game, mature cheeses.

From 3rd-growth Château Giscours (Margaux) and sumptuous, abundant, well-balanced proof that you need not always pay £20+ for a bottle of Left Bank pedigree and finesse.

Beautiful, traditionally made white burgundy made by 5th generation members of the Gonon family at the foot of the great limestone escarpment Solutré that dominates Pouilly Fuissé.

Michel Guilleminot Blanc de Noirs comes from the very south of Champagne in the beautiful Vallee de l'Aube. A lovely single grower champagne made by the 4th generation Guilleminot family.

Jancis Robinson, author and FT wine critic, has written "Nyetimber really is the Krug of England. Or should we say Krug is the Nyetimber of Champagne?"

"...look no further than the Champagne Arlaux 1er Cru Grande Cuvée Brut NV. It really is astoundingly fine, all baked apple, honey and toast with the finest of mousses..."

From this up-and-coming producer a sensational Côtes du Rhône village and for us, one of the best value wines to be found in all the Rhône valley. Very Châteauneuf.

"It's amazing value, and as good a French non-champagne as you'll find, with honeyed yet dry fruit, the softest of mousses and finest of finishes. Outstanding."
