Special Offers

May 2012

Here is a selection of wines we have hand picked for drinking this Spring.

Following on from our recent foray into the realms of Sussex as part of our our New New World of Wine, it seemed about time that we turned our attention to one of the original stars of the "old" New World of Wine, Australia.

Australia has inspired a radical change in the style of wine consumed in this country and with it, attracted consumers that may have otherwise found buying wine intimidating. Australia is the world's fourth largest exporter of wine and in so far as the UK market is concerned, has focused on key price points that dominate the supermarket shelves.  We recently had an opportunity to meet several winemakers over from Australia and would like to introduce some new wines, which we believe offer excellent mid-week drinking.

As always, these recommendations are to reflect the changing seasons produce that will be gracing our tables this Spring.  Please call Karl on 01273 242535, if you would like any further advice on what to drink this month.

These special offers are valid until 31.5.12 and are subject to availability.  Minimum order is just 6 bottles; delivery charges may apply. 

    Australia - Margaret River

  • Vasse Felix Chardonnay 2009, Margaret River, Western Austrlia

    Vasse Felix Chardonnay 2009, Margaret River, Western Austrlia

    This elegant Chardonnay has complex, fragrant aromas with lovely biscuit characters and hints of lemon with subtle vanilla and butterscotch on the finish. The oak is beautifully integrated, so the wine arrives vibrant and fresh on the palate, with a beautiful silky texture and hints of citrus, stone fruit and biscuit.

    Vasse Felix was the first commercial winery to be established in Margaret River, in 1967, following the agronomist Dr John Gladstone's encouraging research into the region's suitability. Others followed, and Margaret River now has an international reputation for fine wine, typically combining ripe Australian fruit with elegant European structure. Vasse Felix was bought by the Holmes à Court family in 1987, and they have continued to invest in its success; a new winery was completed in time for the 1999 harvest, helping Vasse Felix maintain its position among the very finest wineries in Western Australia
