The Stump Jump
Riesling-Sauvignon-Marsanne Australia £22.95 £6.20
Crisp and refreshing, the nose is full of passionfruit, limes, red apple and rose petals. The palate is juicy with a crisp lime character initially present before it opens to lemons and tropical fruits. The finish is fresh and clean.
Johnson Estate
Sauvignon Blanc New Zealand £24.95 £6.75
A classic fruit-driven Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc, with great complexity from ageing on the lees. Intense passion fruit and grapefruit aromas with superb purity of flavours and vibrant acidity.
Bodega Castro Martin
Albarino Spain £27.95 £7.50
A delicious, aromatic Albarino with an abundance of peachy, lime zest fruit on the nose. The palate is fresh and vibrant but with more weight and concentration than most examples of the grapes. Jasmine, apricot, lemon, nectarine and lime are all present and correct.
Pouilly-Fuisse la croix, Domaine-Denogent, 2007 France £37.95
Jean Jacques Robert is the king of Pouilly-Fuisse and his wines are more than a match for all but the best from Meursault and Chassagne-Montrachet. This is rich and buttery and a perfect food white. In contrast to the expressiveness of the prior wines, this is restrained with pure and airy aromas of white peach and lemon that are more elegant but less complex but are very much in keeping with the silky, precise, stony and harmonious flavors that are beautifully balanced and long where a touch of wood toast arrives on the finish.
Puligny-Montrachet, les Enseigneres, Domaine Roux, 2008 France £55.95
Elegant oak-cask aged Chardonnay with rich flavours of ripe apple, lemon and tropical fruits with a hint of vanilla. It's a well rounded and elegant white wine with a complex nose dominated by exotic aromas. This Puligny Montrachet is extremely well balanced with a long lasting finish. It combines grace with a well defined character and remarkable concentration.
Red Wine
Alto Bajo
Merlot Chile £15.95 £4.50
Red and black fruit aromas combine with mocha and hints of ripe fig to create a delicious, complex wine.
Monte Clavijo
Rioja Spain £17.95 £4.95
Juicy, easy-going Rioja with a gently perfumed nose & soft underbelly of raspberry, strawberry & red cherry fruit flavours on the palate. A deliciously uncomplicated version of an old world classic.
Piropo
Shiraz Malbec Argentina £18.95 £5.25
This wine offers intense black fruit with some chocolate and sweet spice from oak aging, leading to a wine which is a perfect complement to lamb dishes.
Deakin Estate, Artisans Blend
Cabernet Tempranillo Australia £20.95 £5.75
A good, juicy wine with dark fruit and savoury characters enhanced by fine-grained tannins. The finish on the palate is smooth and long.
Ceppaiano
AlteViole Italy £24.95 £6.50
Deep ruby colour with garnet reflections. Wonderful nose with aromas of balsamic scents, mint eucalyptus as well as Mediterranean flavours.
Chateaux La Croix Ferrandant St Emillion France £28.95 £7.75
Ripe and rounded with plum, bramble jelly and blackcurrant fruit. Rounded and smooth, it is medium to full bodied with soft tannins and a long, fresh finish.
Chateauneuf du pape, 2008 France £42.95
A full-bodied, peppery, garrigue-dominated effort with loads of black currant and cherry fruit, there is no evidence of new oak, but it possesses plenty of glycerin along with low acidity. Very complex! Using a traditional wine-making process with delestage and remontage for 3/4 weeks in concrete vats. Part of the wine is aged for 18 months in concrete vats and the rest in French oak barrels. Not fined but lightly filtered before bottling and then aged for a further 6 months before release.
Ceretto Barolo Zonchera, 2006 Italy £52.95
Soft, velvety Barolo, with fewer tannins than many of its peers. Well-balanced and ripe with savoury cherry and blackberry fruit, some classic tar, roses and a savoury, leathery edge on the long finish. The wine is crushed and destemmed, and macerated for 13 days on its skins with fermentation at 28 °C lasting for 8 days. It is aged for 32 months in French oak barrels
Rose Wine
Conto Vecchio
Pinot Grigio Blush Italy £17.95 £4.95
It’s got just a bit of sweetness to make it a soft and very easy drinking rose with subtle flavours of raspberry and strawberry.
Valdivieso
Rose Chile £21.95 £5.50
Sweet, juicy strawberry fruit aromas and flavours galore with refreshing, zippy acidity keeping everything in balance; a delightful, fruit-first rose.
Champagne/Sparkling Wine
Jeio, Prosecco Brut Italy £17.95 £5.95
Attractively intense; very fruity and aromatic, with hints of wisteria flowers and apple. The flavour is well-balanced and appealing, with the extremely delicate almond note that is typical of Prosecco.
Laurent-Perrier Brut Champagne France £45.00
Pale gold colour; fine regular bead. Delicate nose with hints of citrus and white fruit. Fresh and easy on the palate with plenty of fruit, good balance and length.
Laurent –Perrier Rose, Champagne France £75.00
Salmon-pink in colour. Precise and very crisp with a lasting impression of freshness, hints of soft red fruits. Intensely fruity flavours, it has great length and is rounded and supple on the finish
Dom Perignon Vintage 2002 France £100.00
Produced only in the finest vintages, Dom Perignon is Moet et Chandon's prestige cuvee Champagne. Usually a blend of half-and-half Pinot Noir and Chardonnay (give or take a few per cent here or there), it is rightly regarded as one of the very finest Champagnes, with the ability to age gracefully over many years. Extraordinarily firm, confident, intense nose. Definitely the savoury side of Dom, broad and long with a hint of orange peel. Great persistence.
