7 Loire

Patrice Morlat - L’Abbaye de St Laurent - Pouilly The Abbaye's 120 acres of vineyards lie around the village of St Laurent in the East of the Appellation, where chalk and limestone soils add to the key mineral character of the wines. Pascal and Patrice Morlat have invested in a brand new wine making facility which is housed in one of the ancient Abbey buildings where pre chilling of musts, gentle pressing, low temperature, long fermentations, gentle filtration, nitrogen blanketing and all stainless steel equipment form the technical backdrop that helps preserve the natural energy of these wines without resorting to sulphur and other preservatives. The result is a wine of nervy character, perfect to accompany river fish.

Henri Bourgeois - Chavignol The Bourgeois Estates are based at Chavignol near Sancerre from where they produce a range of mainly Sauvignon- based wines starting with their excellent “House” wine, Petit Bourgeois and finishing with a clutch of fine Sancerres. Our selection includes their Vigne Blanche Sancerre which shows off the house style well.

Domaine Des Herbauges - Nantes Jérôme Chôblet makes precise well flavoured wines from his estate in Cotes de Grandlieu, near Nantes. We ship his Classic Sur Lie Muscadet and his excellent Val de Loire Chardonnay. Both are made in a modern fresh style and are excellent examples of the variety.

Côtes du Rhône

Domaine de Boissan - Sablet Domaine de Boissan is a small estate in Sablet, on the western slopes of Mont Ventoux. With vineyards in Gigondas and Vacqueyras, M Bonfils makes lovely, concentrated yet elegant wines, a real find in this region of often overcooked plum jam. These can be drunk quite young when the ripe raspberry fruit makes them very appealing, or left to mature, allowing the deeper flavours to come out.

Alsace

Burgundy & Beaujolais

Joseph Meurnier - Beaujolais Meurnier are a grower- Negociant with properties in the Beaujolais region making good quality wines at keen prices. We were very impressed with their Maçon Villages as well as the Villages wines from Beaujolais which we list opposite.

Caves Des Crus Blancs - Mâçon On the border between M âçon and Beaujolais, this caves cooperative makes wines from both regions, and although a co-op, winemaker Michael Moillard coaxes some first class wines from his raw material. Many of the examples we think are better than similar single vineyard examples and at a very competitive price.

Gachot Monot - Corgoloin Damien Gachot is an excellent producer making wines from the Côtes de Nuits. They tend to be characterised by good depth of fruit and supple roundness; very evident in both these wines.

Pascal Prunier - Meursault Pascal Prunier is a young producer based in Meursault with holdings in Auxey Duresses, Monthelie and Beaune as well as St Romain and Meursault. He is friendly with M Gachot whose wines we also list. We think M Prunier is a producer to watch and judging by the quality of the three wines we list we think he will go far.

Domaine Marchard de Gramont – Beaune Domaine Marchard de Gramont is located at Prissey in the Cote D'Or where father Arnaud and his sons Alban and Alexis mange the estate and make the wine. The property extends to 20 hectares of vines extending 50 kilometres from Chenove in the south to Dijon in the north. The wines are fermented and aged in oak with a percentage of new oak each year. The wines are complex, full flavoured and long lasting.

Alain Voegeli - Gevrey Alain Voegeli is a producer in Gevrey who makes just the one appellation, Gevrey Chambertin. His small vineyard is close to the village and he can lavish all his care and attention into making his wine the best possible. The results don't disappoint.

Alain Geoffroy - Chablis M Geoffroy makes classic crisp dry steely wines at his Cellar in Beines. These are textbook wines that shout Chablis from the first pull of the cork.

Sparkling Wine

Villa Domiziano - Treviso This exemplary Prosecco producer makes a range of wines from across the DO. This one is from their vineyards in the Treviso area. A long way from Supermarket Prosecco, this is rich and complex.

Champagne Martial Couvreur - Rilly la Montagne Christian Couvreur is a small grower whose family originally grew grapes for Bollinger.

Pol Roger A favourite with Winston Churchill, this Grand Marque still makes some of the best champagne on the market but is often overlooked in favour of its flashier cousins.
