The Sparkling Aperitif: Frivolo Frizzante Veneto, Italy 2 x 75cl Excellent sparkling wine from the Veneto, the heart of Spumante Prosecco country. This has vibrant bubbles, acidity and liveliness. It has flavours of pear, lemon and citrus fruits, as well as a crisp freshness and a lingering finish.
The Rosé Aperitif: Poderj Rosé Abruzzo, Italy 2 x 75cl bottles Fast becoming one of the favourite go to wines for our customers – It is light, fun, friendly and approachable. Easy to enjoy without food, but better with it. There is grip here, with a lovely crisp saline minerality that finishes long and fresh in the mouth. Really enjoyable and a great wine to have stocked in the fridge for warm days.
The Starter Wine: Chateau Haut Bessac Sauvignon Blanc/ Semillon Bordeaux, France 2 x 75cl bottles This wine is a blend of 70% Sauvignon Blanc which gives it focused, crisp freshness and 30% Semillon. The Semillon is really exciting here as it adds complexity, mouthfeel and creaminess to the wine. The two grapes blend superbly together and the result is a clean fresh wine with added structure and depth. Beautiful. Pair this with salads, smoked salmon, lobster, chicken or risottos or creamy pasta dishes.
The Main Course White: La Lisse Soie Chenin Blanc Languedoc, France 2 x 75cl bottles This ripe yet crunchy fruit gives this wine its freshness, vigour and spine and at the same time its luscious texture which is further complemented and enriched from one third vinified and matured for nine months in seasoned French oak. Hints of caramel and brioche lead to a densely fruity peach palate with great texture and a clean, lifted finish.
The Main Red: Bodegas Navajas Tinto Rioja, Spain 2 x 75cl bottles A red wine made entirely from the Tempranillo grape – This is a wine of real purity, elegance and freshness. With crunchy acidity, it could even be chilled on a warm sunny day. Serve with or without food, at parties or events and pour liberally! It is a great wine for events and parties as it is very crowd-pleasing.
The Cheeseboard/ Main Course Red: Tenute del Pojo Sangiovese Poggiofiorito, Italy This has all the flavours of a great Chianti Classico. It has typical Black olive character, with juicy plummy fruits and a wonderfully joyous finish. It is elegant and rich in the mouth and works winders with food. Sangiovese is best served with dishes that have high acidity foods, such as tomato based pasta dishes, pizzas and other Italian cuisine but in truth, this wine is an all rounder and it will go with most foods!
