Touraine Salamandre 2020 Domaine du Beaujardin
- With enticing aromas of yellow apple, pears, and gooseberry, this is a juicy Sauvignon Blanc from Cellier du Beaujardin. The underlying minerality adds some textural complexity to the wine, with a zingy and uplifting finish. "Enticing with its gentle orchard fruit and gooseberry notes, this appealing Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc is a real treat, zingy and uplifting. "
Chablis 2019/2020 Domaine Vincent Dampt, Burgundy, France
- A classic Chablis with an inviting colour that retains richness without any oak influence at all. Clear, fresh with wonderful balance; a long flavour with elegant, dry finish. Shows great maturity for a young wine.
Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc Domaine Grand Veneur 2018 D.B. (Alain Jaume)
- White Rhônes are under-appreciated in Britain, which is a shame, as they are distinctive, and are frequently both well-made and excellent value. This is a delicious example; water-pale in colour; fine elegant floral-lemony nose; full and ripe on the palate, with peach and honey notes balanced by excellent acidity, and a long nutty finish. Really fine wine.
