A Sauvignon Blanc and Vermentino blend from vineyards facing the town of Narbonne and the Mediterranean sea. Plentiful sunshine imbues the wine with a great weight of fruit, but this is no slouch. Crunchy gooseberry pep...(read more)

A lovely, crisp vermentino that livens the senses with delicate floral aromas and juicy white fruit.

Firm green fruit and pithy notes on both nose and palate. Fresh with good acidity. From one of the coolest parts of the Languedoc, so this Sauvignon has a refreshing grip that Languedoc Sauvignons often lack.

The Valensac wines are perennial favourites and this wine shows why. Classic gooseberry, ripe citrus, cut herbs and something a little tropical, papaya maybe. Brightly delivered with lovely racy acid supporting the crisp...(read more)

Another cracking vintage of this immensely popular unoaked Chardonnay. As ever this tastes fruitily vivacious - full of ripe peach and honeydew melon with a touch of citrus. Fabulous value.

Always such a delight, gently aromatic with white flowers, peach blossom and gentle apricot skin. In the mouth nothing is overdone, stone fruit persistence is surrounded by floral aromatics that never get too much and th...(read more)

A fresh-scented Picpoul - dry and clean as a whistle but kept really interesting by the great mix of flavours. Citrus, camomile, dried straw, bright and juicy in the mouth, citrus, green apple with decent length and nice...(read more)

A brilliant example of Picpoul: whistle-clean; saline, like your skin after a sea swim; reminiscent of crushed rocks and faint white blossom. Dry, fresh and dangerously easy drinking. Try with seafood.

Gorgeously flavoursome with notes of apricot, quince, citrus pith and wild flowers. Mouth-filling but with nice poise and a textured feel, this is a cracking food wine, the depth of stone fruit, piled on top of wild herb...(read more)

Made from a blend of Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc with some Mauzac. Bright and delightfully fresh fruit make this a very appetising sparkler, perfect for any occasion.

Jean-Louis Denois’ sparkling wine from near Limoux, from vineyards planted with Champagne grape varieties. Pinot Noir for body, and floral fruity distinction from Chardonnay. A 'great copy of Champagne' and 'amazing valu...(read more)

Only 5000 bottles produced and made in concrete eggs to maintain freshness. Wet wool, bran/cereal, with a core of ripe apricot. Taut and rich in the mouth with sleek acid, stone fruit intensity and a lovely bitter tug on...(read more)
