wine flight
Baroness Nadine, Rupert and Rothschild, Stellenbosch-Elgin, 2023, South Africa
100% Chardonnay (scallop)
The wine has a bright yellow colour and offers exotic fruit aromas.
The texture is light, with hints of citrus zest and a light creamy finish.
Cru Tavel “Les Hautes Roches”, Cellier des Chartreux, Gard, 2021, France
Grenache, Syrah, Carignan (mozzarella)
The colour is very deep, typical from the traditional rosés. The nose is rich with blackcurrant and blackberry fragrances. The mouth is generous with a beautiful round and fruity palate, and a mineral hint.
Saint-Péray “Harmonie”, Alain Voge, Rhone, 2020, France
100% Marsanne (terrine)
With a generous texture, this wine offers delicate flower undertones, followed by ripe pear, stone fruit and melon flavours. The texture is round, with an herbal finish.
Vermentino di Bolgheri DOC, Marchesi Antinori, Toscana, 2023, Italy
100% Vermentino (monkfish)
A beautiful example of the Tuscan whites which provides generous lemon and nectarine fragrances. The texture is light and refreshing with hints of herbs. The finish has a light salty touch.
Geyserville, Ridge, Sonoma County, California, 2019, U.S.A
Zinfandel, petite syrah, Carignan, Alicante bouschet (duck)
The wine has delicious black plum and prune fragrances with a touch of herbs, delicate smoky and
vanilla undertones. The tannins are fine, with a touch of pepper.
or
Pommard Village, Domaine Virély-Rougeot, Côte d’Or, 2020, France
100% Pinot Noir (veal)
To discover is a very fruity palate focused on plum and redcurrant. The acidity of the wine brings a lot of freshness when its round texture brings balance and length.
As the vintage was very warm, expect a touch of tannins.
Aleatico, Fattoria Aldobrandseca, Marchesi Antinori, Toscana, 2020, Italy
100% Aleatico (raspberry)
With delicious strawberries, cherries and raspberries flavours, the wine offers a floral aftertaste and freshness with
a hint of acidity. This passito will also bring nutty finish and herbs undertones.
or
Maury Vintage Reserve, Mas Amiel, Languedoc, 2018, France
100% Grenache (blackberries)
With black cherries and blackberries flavours, the wine will seduce the palate with vanilla and
floral undertones whilst the barrel ageing brings a spicy yet smooth finish.
