Bright, medium yellow colour, with a fresh, bright almond meal and creamy lees bouquet. Intense flavour and great acid line, tight and tense and long finishing. A brilliant chardonnay, youthful and with a future, but already complex.

Astrolabe Demi Sec Chenin Blance 2019. Zingy and bright with white free fruits and refreshing minerality, this gorgeous off-dry white reflects Astrolabes devotion to the Chenin vines of the Wrekin vineyard. A wonderful aperitif and match with fish and white meats. This pretty new bottle is even more appealing in the glass!
Vignoble du Reveur Pinot d’Alsace Pierres Sauvages 2017 is a blend of Pinot d’Alsace vinified in casks, without correction or commercial yeasts. Aging lasts one year on the lees and the wine is then bottled with a very small amount of sulfur.

Indigo Chardonnay 2016 is layered and moreish, Peel back veneers of interest including oyster shell, coconut husk, toasty oak, vanilla cream, buttered toast and cashews.
Engaging width with a length that just hangs. Soft but fine gingerbread spice hugs you all the way to a cherished farewell.
Tim Smith Riesling 2019. Slightly earlier picking ensures retention of natural acid, and the varietal aromas of lemon and lime prevail, with yeast derived bath salts on the nose. The palate is linear and focused, again, citrus fruits prevailing, with great piercing natural acidity underpinning the palate.
Marsanne makes a medium bodied lightly aromatic wine. We picked the fruit early to keep the wine crisp and delicate with just 12.5% alcohol, and we built mid-palate complexity by leaving the fermented wine in tank on its fermentation lees for nearly a year. This produces a wine that is interesting and satisfying to drink while still young, yet able to mature, with deeper honey notes emerging as the wine ages.
Gautheron Chablis 2016. This is crisp, lively, and fresh. Cyril has managed to keep an impressive amount of acidity. The nose shows lemon rind and salt air; the mouth is smooth and full but with a crisp line of refreshing minerality.
Krinklewood Semillon 2018. Pale straw in colour, this Semillon displays delicate grassy, summer stone fruit and nostalgic lemon sorbet. It has a fine and delicate, dry palate with an elegantly structured acid backbone & crisp clean finish
Howard Park Allingham Chardonnay 2018 is deeply and intensely aromatic, full of classic Chardonnay notes – citrus, fig, honeysuckle, fuzzy peach, nougat, brioche, vanilla pod and wet stone all melding and releasing. Predictably, the palate is a world of layers, flavours and textures. Pliable and full of stone fruits, citrus, pear drop essence, nutmeal, and lemon curd. A soft chalk like texture and gentle acidity allows the flavours to build and linger. Never a wine a extremes, the Alligham Chardonnay is always nuanced and full of subtleties, surprise and harmony.
Usher Tinkler Reserve Chardonnay 2019 is a single vineyard wine that shows flinty, funky mineral notes with overtones of white peach
Picardy Chardonnay 2017 displays salted yellow peach, red apple skin, rockmelon, frangipani, almond meal, hints of saffron, and a suggestion of bergamot. The palate has a powdery finesse about it, the palate plush and succulent. There is curry leaf, nashi pear, Greek yogurt, white pepper, stone fruit, a swoosh of fresh sea spray and a lingering impression of crushed slate minerality. Holy mackerel, I could write about this all day. Safe to say, this is a cracking rendition of the Picardy chardonnay house style.
