The Côtes du Marmandais are situated only 70km south of Bordeaux but classified as a South-West appellation. The wines are usually a blend of the classic Bordeaux varities but also include small percentages of local grapes such as Abouriou, as this one does. Lots of ripe, brambly fruit with spicy notes & a firm yet balanced finish. Tannins are fairly robust but not bitter & length is fairly long. Drink with lean but rich dark meat or goat's cheese, this wine will reward drinkers over the next 5 years. ...

Muscadet comes from the Loire Valley, in the area around the city of Nantes, where the Melon de Bourgogne grape found its spiritual home back in the 17th century, far from its origins in Burgundy. This example is aged for 3 months on its lees for texture & complexity. Bright, clear, with yellow & green reflections. A light citrus character on the nose, with faintly floral touches. The palate is crisp & clean, with a fine texture & subtle spritz. Make this your default seafood wine! Oysters, white fish or prawns make the perfect match. ...

Made by Les Dix du Pallet, a cooperative of 10 growers based in Le Pallet, a 'cru' village in the south-east of the Loire region between the rivers Sevre & Maine. This is a rare, high-quality example of a mature, partially oak-fermented Muscadet. A unique style that shows plenty of evolved characteristics, including subtle nut, brioche & caramelised pear aromas that mingle with Muscadet's typical citrus & mineral backbone. Drink with fine fish or seafood. ...

Muscadet comes from the area around the city of Nantes, where the Loire Valley region nears the Atlantic coast, & has therefore developed a famous association with seafood. This example is made by Lacheteau, a family winery based in nearby Anjou. Clean, crisp & refreshing, this classic Muscadet has a backbone of lemon & lime flavour with a hint of minerality, fresh acidity & a delicately herbaceous edge. At its best with simple white fish & seafood dishes. Try with smoked haddock. ...

This wine is named in honour of New Zealand's Southern Alps, known locally as the Main Divide. This striking landscape is where Pegasus Bay's vines call home. They're blessed by excellent soil quality & sea breezes from the Pacific. This Riesling is slightly off-dry in style. It has notes of honeysuckle, ripe apricot & lime, with a mineral undercurrent & zippy acidity. Some grapes affected by botrytis were added to provide a honeyed richness. Try it with duck. ...

Blended from 8 different parcels across the appellation, this wine gives an excellent representation of the ‘terroir’ of Puligny-Montrachet. The domaine was inherited from father Gerard Chavy 2004 & was split with brother Alain, who makes wine under his father's name. Neither overtly fruity nor over-oaked, Jean-Louis Chavy’s wines are extremely well balanced, emphasising the classic minerality of Puligny-Montrachet. A model of finesse & elegance, drink with simply flavoured grilled white fish. Alternatively, drink this pure wine by itself. ...

Renowned Chilean winery Santa Rita was founded in 1880. Medalla Real was created to celebrate Francisco García Huidobro, an ancestor of the winery’s founders. He established the first Mint in Chile & had a medal coined to commemorate his innovation. Mature vines are used to create this complex wine. Grapes are slow-ripening thanks to cool night-time temperatures, allowing concentrated flavours to develop before picking. The end result is powerful but elegant. It has intense aromas of blackcurrant, blueberry & cherry, combined with soft cedar & spice. It's supple & juicy with a long, lingering finish. Delicious with steak in pepper sauce. The 2020 vintage was awarded 90 points by Tim Atkin MW, & 90 points by James Suckling. ...

Brent Marris is the man behind our bestselling white wine, The Ned. & he's exceptional at making reds too. Like Sauvignon Blanc, another thin-skinned grape, Pinot Noir thrives in Marlborough's cool climate & long ripening season. As a result, this is a rich & full of fruit. Expect blackberry, raspberry, plum & toasted oak. Try it with rich fish, like tuna or trout. ...

One of our most popular wines! Impress with this Marlborough gift pack. The vineyards of The Ned are located on the banks of the Waihopai River & on the southern side of the Wairau Valley. The river runs the length of the 268ha vineyard & is the origin of the shingle-based soil. A nose of nettles & grass leads to generous gooseberry flavours with a smoky herbal twist on the palate. The stony terroir gives the wine a subtle gunflint minerality which delivers extra complexity. ...
