Il Palazzone Brunello di Montalchino, Montalchino 2003 Magnum
£29.50
Such has been the popularity of our Rosso del Palazzone and Il Palazzone Brunello di Montalcino that the Palazzone Estate has offered us a small parcel of their magnums from the 2003 vintage, which come in beautiful single-bottle wooden cases. The perfect gift for all Italian wine lovers. The 2003 in Montalcino was a very good, forward vintage which means that the wine is drinkable now and will last until at least 2018. When we first tasted this wine we were all stunned by how good it was.Il Palazzone Brunello di Montalchino, Montalchino 2003 Magnum
£29.50
Domaine de la Motte Chablis Premier Cru, Beauroy 2006
£13.95
Possibly the best value 1er cru Chablis on the market, made by the Michaut family from grapes grown on the Beauroy slopes. This is beautifully fresh, minerally Chardonnay that is just calling out for grilled fish, shellfish or, as Le Guide Hachette des Vins recommends, snails and butter. A bargain.Domaine de la Motte Chablis Premier Cru, Beauroy 2006
£13.95
Romain Bouchard Chablis Premier Cru Vau de Vey 2006
£17.65
Romain's Vau de Vey Chablis is not 1er Cru quality—it is Grand Cru quality and quite simply the best 1er Cru we have ever tasted.

Not to be missed.Romain Bouchard Chablis Premier Cru Vau de Vey 2006
£17.65
Serge Mathieu Champagne NV (case of 6)
£10.98
We thought when we first tasted it that it was a vintage Grande Marque Champagne. 2 stars in the Hachette Wine Guide—in our opinion it should be 3. This is a single grower Champagne made from Serge Mathieu's own grapes, using what producer Michel Jacob calls “borderline organic” winemaking techniques. The price is unbeatable—highly recommended.Serge Mathieu Champagne NV (case of 6)
£10.98

£81.00
Chateau Lafont Menaut White Bordeaux 2007
£178.20
The best white Bordeaux comes from the inner Graves appellation—Pessac-Léognan. Bordeaux is renowned throughout the world for its red wines—it also make some spectacularly good dry white wines that tend to get overlooked and are normally priced at well below what they should be. This is an excellent example of what really good, modern well-made white Graves is all about.Chateau Lafont Menaut White Bordeaux 2007
£178.20
Domaine Gonon Macon-Villages 2008
£115.80

£287.40
Montagny Premier Cru "Meline" Cote Chalonnaise Burgundy 2007
£143.40

£143.40
Compte Leloup de Chasseloir Muscadet Sevre et Maine sur Lie
£107.40
A different—and in our view the best—Muscadet there is. Made from 100-year-old vines by Bernard Carré with grapes all meticulously picked by hand and aged with their 'lees' to give richness and body. Most of this very small production goes to France's top restaurants.Compte Leloup de Chasseloir Muscadet Sevre et Maine sur Lie
£107.40
Chateau Pedesclaux 5th Growth Pauillac Bordeaux 2004
£287.40
So successful has been our sales of Chateau Pedesclaux 2005 (ranked on a par with Mouton Rothschild 2005 by Decanter Magazine) that we have bought a small parcel of the 2004 vintage. Much the same structure and quality as the 2005 but more forward—and at a considerably lower price. As with the 2005 this is stunning value, and is for drinking now and over the next 5 years.Chateau Pedesclaux 5th Growth Pauillac Bordeaux 2004
£287.40
Vin de Pays de Cotes de Gasgogne Domaine de Pellehaut 2007

Pouilly Fuisse Margolliets White Burgundy 2008
£179.40
Good Pouilly Fuissé is very good, indeed the finest of all Macon (not to be confused with the Loire's Pouilly Fumé) and this is a classic example of really well-made Burgundian Chardonnay at its very best. The New World cannot make Chardonnay like this—and it is exceptional value for money.Pouilly Fuisse Margolliets White Burgundy 2008
£179.40
Boira Pinot Grigio 2008
£119.40
A delightful fresh, totally organic, oak-aged Pinot Grigio from the Veneto region in Italy. We have tasted dozens of Italian Pinot Grigios and this was simply the best—and great value.Boira Pinot Grigio 2008
£119.40
Castello di Potentino Piripo IGT Toscana 2005
£155.40
A delicious and complex Super Tuscan blended by Charlotte Horton from Pinot Noir, Sangiovese and Alicante. A very serious, oak aged wine that has a long life ahead of it and is excellent value for money. The Guida dell’Espresso | Vini D’Italia 2009 awarded it 17.5/20, describing it as “kaleidoscopic, fresh, aromatic.” Great value for money.Castello di Potentino Piripo IGT Toscana 2005
£155.40
Clos du Portail Graves Superieures Bordeaux 2005
£71.40
A very special parcel of a Sauternes/Barsac by any other name. Clos du Portail is made in the same way and to the same high standards as its neighbour, adjoining Château Coutet 1er Cru Barsac, one of the very greatest of Sauternes, but is just outside the appellation boundary (by literally a few feet) into the Graves and so is a fraction of the price. Stunning value for all pudding wine followers and in half bottles.Clos du Portail Graves Superieures Bordeaux 2005
£71.40
Puligny-Montrachet Miroy White Burgundy 2007
£335.40

£335.40
La Reserve de Leoville Barton Saint-Julien Bordeaux 2004
£275.40

Half bottles now available from the legendary 2005 vintage. No more needs be said...terrific value.La Reserve de Leoville Barton Saint-Julien Bordeaux 2004
£275.40
Markus Molitor Riesling Trocken Mosel-Saar-Ruwer 2007
£119.40
A very impressive dry Riesling from eccentric and much-heralded Mosel producer Markus Molitor. 2007 was one of the best vintages in Mosel-Saar-Ruwer of the last 20 years and combined with Marcus's wine making skills, the result speaks for itself.

Domaine Bernard Fleuriet Sancerre Rouge 2007
£143.40
The Fleuriet family, who produce our highly acclaimed white Sancerre, are actually most famous for their red Sancerre, which they produce in very small quantities—the locals rate it the best red Sancerre in their region.

£143.40
Castello di Potentino 'Sacromonte' Montecucco Rosso 2005
£131.40
An excellent Tuscan red from a small, family estate owned by Graham C Greene that is really causing a real stir in the Italian wine world.

£131.40
Domaine Bernard Fleuriet Sancerre 2007
£143.40
The finest and most distinctive Sauvignon Blanc in France comes from Sancerre.

The result is a very fine Sancerre.Domaine Bernard Fleuriet Sancerre 2007
£143.40
Clotilde Davenne Sauvignon Saint-Bris 2008
£107.40
The best Sauvignon Saint-Bris on the market from Clotilde Davenne, the rising star of the Chablis region.

Chateau Faiteau Minervois La Liviniere Languedoc 2006
£9.95
A fabulous, well made syrah based wine from the Languedoc’s first cru-designated appellation. With the elegance and finesse of a northern Rhone wine this offering from Jean Michel Arnaud bowled us over when we first tasted it. This is very serious southern French wine that is drinking perfectly at the moment and will continue to improve.Chateau Faiteau Minervois La Liviniere Languedoc 2006
