The Courselle sisters both studied agricultural engineering, trained as oenologists and worked the wine regions of the world before returning to the family business in Bordeaux. They own and run with total commitment to quality, this tiny 5 hectare vineyard overlooking the river Garonne, and planted with 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc. The brilliant 2015 vintage is a bright ruby colour, with fine, elegantly perfumed aromas. The palate has a lovely, luscious, creamy texture, with intense fruit and fine structure. This wine exudes class and is perfect for immediate drinking.

From family owned vineyards in the village of Montelupo Albese, just East of Serralunga d`Alba, this is a charming, pure Dolcetto style. A brilliant ruby-purple colour, aromas recall ripe black cherries, blackberries and cherry blossom. The palate is medium bodied, juicy and rounded, with wonderful richness of flavour and fresh length. A vibrant red to drink slightly chilled with a grilled butterflied leg of lamb, preferably in the garden, weather permitting.

It is so rare to find Pinot Noir at this price level that is such high quality too. It is no surprise that Bruno Lafon, originally of Meursault fame and now based in the Languedoc, is behind this crunchy, pure, scented Pinot Noir from the hills of Limoux. Pale ruby colour, aromas are ripe and attractive, the palate being light bodied and perfumed. This is a red wine that bursts with energy, with a lovely fresh bite to finish.

Consistently our most popular rosé, year on year, coming from the gentle Provencal slopes by the river Issole. the 2019 Pique Roque glistens in the glass, being the palest, most delicate of colours. It has attractive, scented aromas combining ripe peach and fresh red berries. The palate is vivacious and intense, with vibrant, pure fruit, creamy texture and a wonderful racy finish. A light wine, just 12.5%, to be enjoyed all summer long.

This is a mountain wine, grown high in Italy’s southern alpine region of Alto Adige. These vines can grow to over 6 metres tall, their height providing cool nights that give this 2019 Pinot Bianco has all the freshness and purity one could wish for in a white wine. Aromas are lively, recalling fresh pear and lime. The palate is light and fragrant, with a silky texture and a crisp finish, that leaves your senses refreshed and alert.

Situated on the opposite bank of the river Cher from the village, for centuries this vineyard ceased to be cultivated as the monks who controlled the bridge charged the vigneron a toll for each crossing. Now free to reach, the Villalin vineyard, with its stony, riverside location creates a wine of great minerality and vivid fruit. The intense greengage and gooseberry aromas create a piercing freshness in the mouth, with wonderful clarity of flavour, and a fine, silky texture. A smart buy if you enjoy the wines of Sancerre.
