Wine list

Chablis

Domaine Long-Depaquit, Maison Albert Bichot, £41.00

The pale yellow colour with light green highlights tell a great deal about the character which is bursting with mineral precision and finesse. A very pure nose that has aromas of white flowers and flint opens up to a palate that boasts an elegant combination of almond notes and lovely vivacity.

---

Chardonnay

Castillo de Monjardin, Navarra, Spain, £26.00

Upfront and intense aromas of green apple. The mouthfeel is powerful, unctuous and rich with well-blended hints of acidity and sweetness. Pleasant, lingering aftertaste.

---

Pinot Grigio

La di Motte, Veneto, Italy, £30.00

Full-bodied, flavoursome Pinot Grigio from the La di Motte estate. Juicy stone fruit characters with lemon and lime fruit, balanced with good acidity and length.

---

Sauvignon Blanc

Languedoc – Roussillon, France, £21.00

Refreshing white wine known for its crisp acidity. On the nose, it offers aromas of freshly cut grass, green apples, and citrus fruits. Light-bodied with a zingy acidity, and balanced flavours of gooseberry, lime and a hint of minerality.

Domaine Bonnard Sancerre, Loire, France, £46.00

Delicious and expressive, combining the best of Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc with a hint of the New Zealand style. Look for lime zest and mineral, cut grass and a touch of fresh flowers.

---

Cabernet Sauvignon

Château Brande Bergère, Bordeaux, France, £32.00

Deep red in colour, nose of forest fruits, well-structured and rounded on the palate, very elegant with good mouth-feel blended cabernet.

Chocolate Box “Truffle Chocolate”, Barossa Valley, Australia, £40.00

Ripe blackcurrant is beautifully balanced with subtle vanilla, cassis and minty chocolate to leave a long, rewarding finish.

---

Merlot

La Doutelle Langudoc – Roussillon, France, £21.00

Medium-bodied red wine known for its velvety texture and fruit-forward character. On the nose, it typically displays ripe, juicy fruit of black cherries and plums with hints of spice. On the palate, it is characterised by its round, smooth tannins and juicy flavours.

---

Pino Noir

Bourgogne “Vieilles Vignes” Albert Bichot, Burgundy, France, £45.00

Vinified in traditional open vats to preserve the Pinot Noir fruit & matured partly in oak casks to add mellowness. A fine light & bright garnet red colour with delicate sweet cherry & plum hints on the nose. The palate is tender & soft, supplemented with a touch of spice without excessive tannins.

---

Shiraz

II Paradosso, Sicily, Italy, £26.00

A full-bodied and spicy blend of the indigenous Nero d’Avola grape and the more familiar dark-berried character of Shiraz.

---

Rosé

Villa Rosella Rosé, Zinfandel, Italy, £22.00

Full of ripe strawberry fruit, this is a medium dry rosé which is very easy to drink.

---

Sparkling

Ca’ di Alte, Prosecco Frizzante NV, Veneto, Italy, £26.00

This is a light, soft Frizzante. Pale straw yellow in colour with delicate notes of Williams pear and stone fruits, it is clean and balanced on the palate with a fresh finish. The grapes are grown primarily on the hills south of Vicenza, the Colli Berici, where the hillside sites ensure lower yields and better ripeness of the grapes.

---

Champagne

Laurent Perrier La Cuvee Brut NV, £48.00

This Champagne has a delicate and fresh nose, with good complexity and notes of citrus fruit. It is fresh and supple, with rounded and expressive flavours from which the fruit progressively emerges. Good balance and length.
