wine flight
Grüner Veltliner Federspiel, Weingut Rudi Pichler Wachau, 2023, Austria
100% Grüner Veltliner (crab)
Bright and aromatic, this wine is very expressive with tropical fruit notes, gooseberry, white pepper and herbs.
Preludio Barrel Select Lote No.22, Familia Deicas, Juanico Canelones, 2018, Uruguay
Chardonnay, Viognier (courgette flower)
Rich texture and mouthfeel balanced perfectly with ripe stone fruit. Some delicate floral notes and citrus peel balance the oak on the palate.
Crianza Vina Cubillo, Lopez R. Heredia, Rioja, 2015, Spain
Tempranillo, Garnacha, Mazuela, Graciano (quail)
Soft, lightly dried red fruits supported by beautifully integrated American oak. Cedar, clove, woodsmoke in the background complete this Spanish classic.
Grünhauser Rielsing, Maximin Grünhaus, Mosel, 2021, Germany
100% Rielsing (seabass)
Racy citrus fruit, notably lime and grapefruit, alongside white floral aromatics. Refreshing and perfectly balanced.
Peter Max Pinot Noir, Crystallum, Western Cape, 2023, South Africa
100% Pinot Noir (chicken)
Fruit-driven elegance and savoury complexity in one glass. South Africa’s answer to Red Burgundy.
or
Art Series Shiraz, Leeuwin Estate, Margaret River, 2021, Australia
100% Shiraz (lamb)
Robust and jammy. Dark bramble fruit and cassis take the lead with roasted meat and smoke in the background.
Pineau des Charentes, Château de Beaulon, Charentes, 10 ans, France
Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot (rice pudding)
Juicy, confected red fruit: wild strawberry, cherry, black raspberry. Light chocolate notes on the finish. Fine tannins provide structure to this classic Vin de Liqueur.
or
Marsala Superiore Garibaldi, Martinez, Sicily, NV, Italy
Grillo, Inzolia, Parpatto, Catarratto (roast peach)
Cooked tropical fruit, notably banana, alongside toffee, caramel and molasses. A long-overlooked style that over-delivers on texture and flavour.
