2016 Gönnheimer Riesling, Eymann, Pfalz

Weingut Eymann, Ready, but will keep,

This is Eymann’s entry-level Riesling, sourced from vineyards around the village of Gönnheim, all of which are farmed biodynamically and organically. Four to six months on its lees gives the wine amazing weight and texture – both of which are rarely found in dry Rieslings at this price-point. Lemon verbena, red apple and citrus aromas entice, while the wine’s generous texture is accompanied by vibrant acidity and a long, persistent finish.

2014 Ronan by Clinet, Bordeaux

Chateau Clinet, Ready, but will keep,

This top quality drinking claret from Chateau Clinet has been a favourite with BB&R customers for some time and this offering from the 2014 vintage is as good, if not better than its predecessors. Showing plummy fruit with classic pencil lead, smoke and sweet spice notes it is an inviting and appealing nose that still shows class. The palate has restrained dark berry fruit flavours with more wood smoke and the tannin is fine and firm. This is the kind of wine which will come alive when accompanied by a joint of roast lamb or beef and you may find that you end up opening a second bottle at the request of your thirsty guests!

2016 Morgon, La Voûte Saint-Vincent, Domaine Louis Claude Desvignes

Domaine Louis Claude Desvignes, Ready, but will keep,

This cuvée is utterly gorgeous in 2016. Its aromas of flowers and red berries are characteristic of the vintage (’15 centred on darker fruit) but also point to the location of the vines, in the climat of Douby, adjacent to Fleury. With mouth-watering acidity and satisfying grip to the mid-palate, La Voute Saint-Vincent ‘16 is a heaven-made made match for charcuterie.

2016 Waterford Estate Sauvignon Blanc, Elgin, South Africa

Waterford Estate, Drink now,

The fruit for this wine is sourced from Elgin, whose chalky, slate soils provide the perfect environment for the aromatics and minerality of Sauvignon Blanc to flourish.
Cool, crisp citrus aromas lead to a focused and refreshing palate, with a core of green apple and lime. A fine expression of Elgin Sauvignon Blanc; this wine is harmonious, with an impressively long finish.

2013 Pedra Basta, Sonho Lusitano, Quinta do Centro, Alentejano

Sonho Lusitano, Quinta do Centro, Drink now,

A blend of Trincadeira, Arragonez, Cabernet Sauvignon and the all-important Alicante Bouschet – key to the singularity of the wines of the Alentejo. In fact, Sonho Lusitano is located in the Alentejo sub-region of Portalegre, where the increased altitude contributes to the freshness and finesse of the estate’s wines. 12 months in old oak allows the constituent parts of Pedra Basta to harmonise but leaves no trace of flavour. The name Pedra Basta (enough stone) hints at the engaging mineral character of its long, moreish finish. Drink now to 2018.
Will Heslop - Wine Buyer

English wine writer Richard Mayson MW, who has long recognised the potential of the Portalegre sub-region of the Alentejo, made his Sonho Lusitano (Lusitanian Dream) a reality when he established the eponymous estate with winemaker Rui Reguinga in 2005. The Portalegre DOC lies some 500 metres above sea-level and enjoys significantly more rainfall than the majority of the Alentejo.

Barbera is known for its freshness and this wine exudes balance and clarity of fruit. Tightly-packed with fine tannins, lively acidity and sour cherry fruit, the palate manages to display gloss and density without any additional weight. This is medium-bodied and refined. Drink now to 2020.

2016 Riesling, Les Jardins, Domaine André Ostertag

Domaine Andre Ostertag, Drink now,

Biodynamically farmed, the grapes for this cuvée are vinified to produce a dry wine focused on fruit and terroir expression. A fleshy and racy white, the nose shows plenty of lemon and lime aromas with a cool wet stone note. The palate is bright and dynamic, delivering green apple and honey flavours and ending with that trademark freshness which demands another sip. This is wonderful with plaice, sole, crab or any seafood dish, really.

2017 Miraval Rosé, Famille Perrin, Côtes de Provence

Chateau Miraval, Ready, but will keep,

Capturing the essence of Provençal charm, the epitome, perhaps, of Matisse’s “luxe, calme et volupté”; the Perrin family (of Château de Beaucastel fame) continues to provide the expertise and winemaking skills at Miraval – which delivers year in, year out. Their 2017 rosé is gloriously pale, dry and pure. Aromas of wild raspberries and redcurrants play against a herbal backdrop. Utterly refreshing, the wine’s graceful texture is balanced by red-cherry acidity, with notes of strawberry and fennel on the mid-palate. It’s perfect summer drinking (especially in large-format).

2015 Sidebar, Sauvignon Blanc, High Valley, California, USA

Ramey Wine Cellars, Ready, but will keep,

Sourced from High Valley in Lake County, the Brassfield Sauvignon Blanc vineyard is north of Napa at 1,800 feet above sea-level. It is one of the coolest sites in Lake County and helps the wines obtain nervier acidities. As for the winemaking: whole-cluster fermentation, no malolactic and a mix of stainless steel and oak barrels for fermentation, it’s then aged for two months on lees, in a mix of neutral oak, stainless steel and concrete egg. The resultant wine is almost Loire in style – fresh and chalky with a citrus core.

2015 Le 'G' de Chateau Guiraud, Bordeaux

Chateau Guiraud, Ready, but will keep,

G is a wonderful example of the dizzy heights white Bordeaux can reach when terroir, vintage and winemaking skill align. It’s an equal split of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon, aged for seven months on its fine lees in one year old barrels (previously used for the château’s Sauternes). Its complex aromas include ripe citrus, quince and yellow plum. Bone dry, the palate combines a glorious, rich texture with fresh acidity. To top it all, there’s a beguiling saline note to the finish. Frankly, it’s difficult to imagine how this wine could be any better!

2013 Ostler Lakeside Pinot Gris, Waitaki River, Otago

Ostler Vineyard, Drink now,

Jim Jerram is the leading pioneer of the developing Waitaki Valley viticultural region. His Ostler label is based in the hamlet of Kurow (where Richie McCaw played his first rugby) and has developed a fine reputation for Pinot Noir and aromatic whites. The name comes from Jim’s great-grandfather, William Ostler, who came from Yorkshire to this area in the 1850s. The Waitaki climate is cooler than Central Otago, thanks to afternoon easterly breezes sucked in from the coast, however the ripening season is longer and lower frost risks.

Showing lightly caramelised red apples and pears on the nose this richly bodied Pinot Gris delivers a delightful blend of spices on the palate. Gingerbread, cinnamon and rose petal dance on the tongue accompanied by green fruit and a hint of lychee. These flavours and its generous texture make it a perfect match for pan-fried scallops or Munster cheese.

2016 Craven Faure Vineyard Syrah, Stellenbosch, South Africa

Craven, Ready, but will keep,

This is not your typical Stellenbosch Syrah: elegance and restraint are evident in this classically proportioned wine. Briar fruit dominates the nose and palate, underpinned by fine tannins and fresh, saline acidity. The mid-palate is tightly packed and, though delicious now, with benefit from a little longer in bottle. Drink now to 2021.

2014 Ch. Picque Caillou Rouge, Pessac-Léognan, Bordeaux

Ch. Picque Caillou, For laying down,

This 24 hectare property boasts classic gravel soils and a notably warm microclimate, so performs well in cooler years like 2014. The ethos in the vineyard is lutte raisonée, and vinification and ageing (12 months in French oak, 30% of it new) are similarly sympathetic. The resulting wine is precisely what one wants from Pesac-Léognan: elegant and mineral, with aromas including black cherries and graphite.
Unimaginative perhaps, but Pique Caillou ’14 is a sensational match for roast beef.

2015 Moulin-à-Vent, Vieilles Vignes, Domaine Louis Boillot

Louis Boillot, Ready, but will improve,

Clément, son of Louis Boillot and Ghislaine Barthod, is responsible for this super wine, made from the fruit of vines between fifty and sixty-years-old. Clément’s method is more Burgundian than Beaujolaise: the grapes are de-stemmed, and the wine matured in barrels (10% new). The ’15 is exceptionally concentrated, with aromas including black cherry and liquorice. The palate is surprisingly fresh – Louis remarked on its attractive côté vegetal when we tasted from barrel in the family’s cellars in Chambolle-Musigny.
A great example of serious, age-worthy Beaujolais, which will pinote (become Pinot-like) with time in bottle.
