Alphonse Mellot Sancerre Petite Moussiere Rouge 2020 375ml

Petite Moussière is Mellot's entry-level Pinot, drawn from younger vines on the Saint-Doulchard marls of La Moussière. Although the name of the wine suggests something light and crunchy, even here there is a lovely plumpness of fruit and vinous depth. Saying that, Alphonse Mellot is aiming for a more open and approachable style here, so this fruit experiences more delicate maceration and shorter aging than for the Moussière proper.

Domaine de la Quilla Muscadet Sèvre et Maine Sur Lie 2023

Resulting from a harmonious blend of the different terroirs of La Haye Fouassière, it combines both the balance and the vivacity sought for a Muscadet. Delicate white nectarine and subtle lemon pith notes are met with a good dose of acidity and crystalline minerality. Clean and crisp, it's approachable and affordable with the qualities of a youthful Muscadet and a perfect start to your journey.

Domaine du Collier 'La Charpentrie' Saumur Blanc 2020

Importers Notes "Always an incredible wine, this is produced from an old vine parcel (>100 years) in the lieu-dit of 'La Charpentrie' in Brézé. Deeper and more sombre than the wine above always with a fine precision. Thrilling, complex scents of lime, flowers and pineapple give way brightly citric, concentrated palate, underpinned by chalky, mineral elements. This has more power and tension than the Saumur Blanc (if that is even possible!) - it is simply a wine for the ages. … more

Domaine Huet Vouvray Le Haut-Lieu Demi-Sec 2022

Huet's demi secs typically fall between 18 and 25 g/L residual sugar (give or take a few grams), but the acidity makes the wines appear only just off-dry.

"The 2022 Le Haut-Lieu Demi-Sec is juicy, though never generous, but still a comforting Vouvray that remains focused; there's sufficient tension from the acidity despite the season's warmth. Welcoming and friendly from the off, there's ?ne fruit here with a pretty talc note. It has a sense of persistence and presence that … more

Domaine Huet Vouvray Le Mont Sec 2022

"The 2022 Le Mont Sec is a parcel of Chenin planted on clay with scattered ?int, giving a certain tension to the style you certainly don't ?nd in the come-hither Clos du Bourg. Its supple, concentrated core of fruit sits within a framework of structure. Both acidity and phenolics add tension and sinew. While some natural residual sugar remains (5.5g/L residual sugar), this rounds out the palate and brings balance-it's near-as-dammit dry in its impression and technically dry under Vouvray's … more

François Cotat Sancerre Cuvée Paul 2017

Importers Notes - "From a plot just over 1 hectare in size in Les Monts Damnés, the imposing sweep of vineyards that look down driectly upon Chavignol. This has a deeper tone and pitch than the 'Caillotes' and perhaps a touch more concentration. François's Monts Damnés is clearly the best example of this famous Cru. Reflecting the excellent vintage, this wine is cool and compact, a taut, tightly coiled core of briny minerality; such tension, and exquisite balance. Superb and … more
