Ch. Goubau is a certified organic property, superbly situated at 100 metres above sea-level on the St Philippe d’Aiguilhe plateau, the highest point of the Bordeaux region. It was bought in December 2015 by Jacques and Fiona Thienpont of Le Pin, along with his sister and family.
With its lovely deep salmon colour the wine is immediately attractive, the nose does not disappoint: lots of zest and character and a slight smoky note; reminiscent of wild roses and pata negra. On the palate the wine is fresh and attractive with plenty of depth and body . The spicy end note is the perfect foil to the fruity mid-palate. Chilled well this wine is perfect for summer drinking - as an aperitif or with a summer barbeque!

Family-owned Antech is the most prestigious producer in Limoux and we are delighted to have worked exclusively with Françoise Antech, from the sixth generation of the family, to craft this wonderfully expressive Crémant de Limoux.
A blend of 70 percent Chardonnay and 15 percent each of Chenin Blanc and Mauzac, aged traditionally and generously on its lees, this is a beautiful, balanced wine, with elegant aromas of orchard fruit and honeyed spice. The palate marries more exotic fruits with a clean, pebbly backdrop and an impressive depth of flavour.

The family-run Lyrarakis estate has made a habit of rescuing indigenous grape varietals from the brink of extinction – first the remarkable, laurel-scented Dafni, now the equally characterful Plytó. Grown in the spectacular Psarades vineyard, which sits close to 500 metres altitude, this is the only 100% Plytó in commercial production anywhere on the planet. It has a dazzling yellow hue and subtle aromas of white flowers and orchard fruit. There’s an engaging saline lick and ‘olive pit’ bitterness to the finish, as well as the finesse and freshness that are hallmarks of the domaine. I enjoyed this at first sip, but fell in love with it over a plate of whitebait.
Will Heslop - Wine Buyer Bart Lyrarakis heads up this family-run domaine which has made a habit of rescuing indigenous varietals from the brink of extinction – first the remarkable, laurel-scented Dafni and now the equally characterful Plytó.

The producer behind our own-label Australian Shiraz, Elderton, is run by the Ashmead family (currently Allister and Cameron). The winery is located on the banks of the Barossa Valley`s North Para River, just outside the town of Nuriootpa. The fruit is drawn from 31 hectares of high-quality vineyards in the Barossa Valley. Aged between 40 and 102 years old, coupled with minimal irrigation, the vines produce rich, concentrated fruit showing off classic varietal flavours.
Barossa Shiraz is all about texture: smooth, chocolate-rich liquid that glides across the palate. This is a prime example of the style but incorporates an added lift of crunchy red fruit, bringing a welcome freshness to this very drinkable wine.

Sourced from the prestigious Grand Cru village of Mailly, located at the heart of the Montagne de Reims, and benefiting from over three years’ ageing, our non-vintage United Kingdom Cuvée is a classic blend of 75 percent Pinot Noir and 25 percent Chardonnay.
All the hallmarks of Grand Cru are here, with brioche and flowers on the nose and an elegant palate which marries notes of lemon grass, gingerbread and honeysuckle. The wine effortlessly combines structure and finesse, and reverberates with a really authoritative Grand Cru crescendo on the finish.

It has taken some time to find a suitable New Zealand Pinot Noir to rejoin our Own Selection range but our patience has been rewarded. This lovely wine is made for us by the award-winning Greystone in the Waipara Valley.
The wine is bright, fresh and lean with sweet red cherry fruit and an appealing savoury character. An herbaceous note lifts the finish and the tannins are fine, adding definition. This is a fresh, pure, mineral style of Pinot Noir which leaves the palate feeling cleansed, ready for another sip.

For proof positive of the capacity of Beaujolais to supply world class wines at an affordable price, look no further than Château Thivin, in Côte de Brouilly. Sept vignes is, ostensibly, the domaine’s most “basic” cuvée, but it shows remarkable complexity and finesse, and will continue to improve over the next decade (and perhaps beyond). It is sourced from seven parcels, with a variety of aspects and soils – mostly blue and pink granite – around the volcanic hill of Brouilly. Approximately a third of the grapes in this cuvée are de-stemmed.
The nose combines flamboyant aromas of strawberry compote, blueberry and more subtle savoury notes, which will become more distinct with the passing years.
The theme of cheerful red and blue fruit continues on the palate. This is riper and less austere than, say, the cuvée Godefroy, but has the same beguiling saline character to the finish.
Try it with carpaccio or tartare de bœuf.

This wine is altogether breezier in nature than Dingac, its older sibling. Bright red fruit aromas explode from the glass. Slightly slower to reveal itself is an attractive herbal note, redolent of organo and green tea. Fresh acidity and minimal tannins make the palate lithe, limber and refreshing. Works well with pasta and pizza or, lightly chilled, with spicy dishes. Cracking label too.

Galicia is a land of superstition where mischievous faeries and pixies form part of the folklore. “Extramundi” refers to the “otherworldly” nature of this region where Oscar Aragón of Ribera del Duero producer, Cillar de Silos, makes this wine. His wonderful 2015 vintage won the accolade of Best Ribeiro in Spain.
From the increasingly fashionable DO of Ribeiro in Galicia, this is a mouth-watering blend of Treixadura, Albariño, Godello and Loureira, with a freshness and saline minerality that point decisively to the Atlantic. Notes of citrus, almond and that unmistakable, sunny apricot aroma characteristic of Albariño.

This is the lightest of the three ice wines made at Changyu, with 140g/l residual sugar. The wine is made from the juice of the third crush and accounts for 75 percent of the estate’s total ice wine production.
Because the fruit for ice wine is frozen, but healthy and not botrytised, the attack is always very fresh and pure, with a very positive level of acidity. Here the profile is more of citrus and tropical fruits, blossom and honey. Creamy desserts work well, such as crème brûlée, or try simply with tropical fruits like pineapple or mango.

This 2012 Crianza is really impressive. Dense and rich, exuding sweet, dark fruit, it is a serious wine with notable, ripe tannins and good structure from 13 months in French oak. A lovely, perfumed nose and a herbal twist on the palate adds complexity and the finish is long and rewarding. This is a fine example of how serious a Crianza can get. Try with: lamb dishes – from rich, slow-roast shoulder to delicate cutlets.

Domenic Torzi and Tracy Matthews were going to grub up their Frost Dodger Riesling vineyard – until we persuaded them to continue making the wine, exclusively for the Berry Bros. & Rudd Own Selection range. Our Buyer Catriona Felstead MW has worked closely with them to create this thrilling Eden Valley Riesling.
Aromas and flavours of classic lime fruit move through to a peach-stone core and are followed by an immaculate, wet-stone finish. The real beauty of this wine, however, lies in its impressive weight and texture, which combines with a porcelain freshness, invigorating the palate. This is a fantastic example of what Eden can achieve and is also a thoroughly refreshing wine.

Our best-selling wine for many decades, GOC, as it is known, brilliantly highlights the sheer drinkability of modern red Bordeaux. The wine is made for us by Dourthe, which owns several leading châteaux, but most importantly is brilliant at blending fruit from around the region to create undeniably classic styles of red and white Bordeaux.
Bright, medium ruby in colour, with a siren-like nose of black cherries, bramble fruit and wood smoke, it is instantly appealing. The palate follows through with delicious, juicy, black fruit and a long, velvety finish. Equally at home with a weekday supper or a grand Sunday roast, it is the perfect wine for all occasions.

This is the estate’s premium wine. The nose is pure and elegant with blackberry and blueberry aromas and a hint of smokiness. The wine opens on the palate, becoming full and generous with ripe blackberry, blond tobacco and peppery notes. An elegant tannic backbone carries through to a great finish. Drink now to 2025.
This estate is situated on the beautiful hillsides around Vérac, overlooking Pomerol and Lalande de Pomerol. It has been owned by the Lhuillier family since 1941, who craft boutique wines that are full of personality. Quality and consistency are evident in their terroir-driven winemaking approach which combines tradition and modernism.

Such an exciting addition to the Berry Bros. & Rudd range, GRUS is made by the peerless Marcelo Retamal with Syrah (50 percent), Grenache, Malbec and Petite Sirah from Chile’s highest commercial vineyard – a compelling backstory to say the least, but it doesn’t prepare you for this wine’s sheer exuberance.
GRUS delivers a red-fruit hit equivalent to colliding face-first with a summer pudding (launched by a gourmet clown). Twelve months’ maturation in concrete eggs has contributed to its remarkably silky texture. The shape of a concrete egg means the wine inside is never stationary, so tannins and lees become better integrated. GRUS has an inherent tension all the same, which results from the acidity and minerality which streak from the front of the palate to the final seconds of its long, slightly saline finish.

Unusually this Graciano is made into a single varietal wine. When in its normal role in Rioja, Graciano could be viewed with regard to Tempranillo as Chewbacca is to Han Solo: necessary to the plot but pretty hard to work out what he’s saying. More subtle and fruity than other rare examples, the red fruits are spiked with Asian spices and dried flowers. Acidity and tannins sit closely, like teenagers on a third date, holding hands and are very unlikely to let go any time soon.

Gusbourne Estate has become a standard-bearer of high quality English sparkling and still wines. The estate sits on the low slopes of the ancient Kentish escarpment at Appledore, consisting exclusively of south-facing slopes. The combination of a warm and dry local microclimate, the sea’s moderating influence and the estate’s clay and sandy loam soils, ensure the production of exceptional quality grapes.
Gusbourne’s Appledore vineyards cover a complex geological mosaic which, thanks to the skills of winemaker Charlie Holland, is captured in this wine. A blend of 72 percent Chardonnay, 22 percent Pinot Noir and six percent Pinot Meunier, this wine has benefited from more than 18 months on the lees. It has an attractive mid-gold hue, with ripe aromas of orchard fruit, citrus zest and a seam of minerality.

Made for us by Davide Rosso, this Barolo offers classic Nebbiolo character and structure. Since first bottling his family’s Serralunga d’Alba fruit in the late 1990s, Davide has rightly gained a reputation as one of the region’s finest (Nebbiolo) winemakers. He may not have the name or history of some of his famous neighbours but perhaps as a result he’s further incited to prove himself. That he is surely doing, with a range of peerless Serralunga Baroli, traditionally and expertly made.
The fine yet densely packed tannins are enveloped in scented cherry and cranberry fruit, with florals that hint at dried violets. The opulent texture is balanced by refreshing, racy acidity and a core of chalky minerals. Accessible and seductive, this is a pleasure to drink now, but the sophistication, refinement and concentration will allow it to age further in bottle. It will benefit from being decanted.

Made for us by Andrea Mantengoli of La Serena, whose vineyards are located on Montalcino’s eastern flank, this is an example of true Brunello at its best. Stylistically La Serena’s wines echo those of its neighbours, such as the more celebrated Cerbaiona next door. The wines display a great drinkability even when young, all while respecting the identity of their piece of Montalcino terroir.
Bright in appearance, with ripe red cherry and herbal aromas on the nose. The palate is ripe and poised, with fresh acidity that adds definition to the mid-palate. As is characteristic of this wine, the tannins are finely wrought.

The Oremus wine estate has a long and colourful history, with Tokaji being produced there as early as 1620 by a Calvinist priest called Mate Szepsy Lacko. In 1993, the 33-hectare estate was bought by a Spanish consortium headed by David Álvarez, the owner of Vega Sicilia. The aim at Oremus is to produce Tokaji wines of elegance and balance with perfect harmony between the sweet fruit and natural acidity.
The 2011 vintage has yielded a more elegant and floral interpretation of this Tokaji Aszú wine. The nose has notes of orange blossom and peach, interspersed with honeysuckle and acacia. The palate is beautifully poised with the trademark acidity acting as counterpoint to the noble-rot sweetness. The long finish is fresh and vibrant.

Orange blossom, red fruit and gingerbread jump out of the glass. There is a more exotic stone fruit element as well. The mousse is delicate and fine, with lingering and persistent fine bubbles. Plenty of autolytic character on the palate, with a creamy finish. Enjoy this on its own or for something a bit different, with some popcorn as recommend when tasting at Iron Horse!

Sharing a name and village (Vertus) with the magnificently fashionable House Larmandier-Bernier in Champagne does not seem to have posed too many problems for Mme Larmandier of Champagne Guy Larmandier (one has not dared to enquire yet as to her Christian name) and her son François. Their Champagnes have a very distinct personality – floral, generous and wonderfully elegant.
The nose is honeyed with lime blossom and white peach – fresh, floral and elegant. There is a typical Cramant softness on the palate, with lovely harmony, absolutely no rough edges and a long creamy finish. Uncomplicated and hedonistic, this is a magnificent vin de plaisir, a pure old-school expression of Côte des Blancs Chardonnay: floral, rounded and wonderfully complete. White fruits, honeysuckle and gently buttered toast all vie for attention; this is impossible to resist!

Patrick Javillier is now one of Meursault's best growers. An electrical engineer by training, he later studied oenology in Dijon before taking over his father's small Meursault estate. It would be difficult to find another winemaker with quite such a perfectionist attitude as Javillier, a man who approaches winemaking with the precision of a research scientist, yet is always ready to question his own success. The results are startling.
Patrick Javillier has crafted a superbly balanced Meursault for our own-label range in 2015, using grapes from the top, middle and bottom of the hillside. This delicious white Burgundy displays a classy, fresh-fruit nose, with beautifully rounded fruit on the palate, with ripe yet fresh yellow-plum notes. This is a very classical Meursault, with a pure long finish.
