A Viognier of intense power, character and zest; soft apricots, honeydew melon with notes of chamomile tea are followed by a rich palate and long perfumed finish.
Spicy, white peach characters with a sublime perfume of jasmine. This wine is surprisingly fresh and bursting with peach and apricot flavours. Beautifully balanced with an impressive backbone of elegant minerality. This is a delight to the senses.
Gently perfumed, ripe melon fruit and fresh citrus on the nose. The palate is ripe but retains excellent freshness, balanced by a touch of white pepper spice that is very typical of its grape variety. Deliciously long, the finish shows bright fruit and a clean, saline/mineral edge.
Considering the skin contact fermentation here, it takes a great deal of skill to produce a wine with such clarity and brightness. Beautifully pale pink in colour, the palate is initially one of fresh strawberries before a very smart pithy finish.
This is the most delicious native white Northern Italian grape you've probably never heard of! Aromas of lime and lemon zest, green herbs, flowers and ripe apricots. The palate is fleshy, zippy, clean and crisp. Stunning.
Classy Chardonnay with flinty minerality and great purity and restraint. A citrus core with ripe apple, pear and delicate tropical notes, produces a wine with great poise. Extended time on the lees adds nutty and toasty notes. Intense yet delicate right through to the finish.
Fresh and zesty with grassy and dry bay leaf aromatics, fynbos (indidgenous South African bush), mineral notes, with hints of richness. This is a restrained Sauvignon Blanc with a palate that has lots of minerality and citrus with just a touch of green pepper and grass.
Bready aromas and dried herbaceous notes, including fennel and aniseed dominate the nose, followed by a creamy lemon character. The palate is reminiscent of the nose, with great textural complexity, attributable to the long, slow wild yeast fermentation.

Fresh almost tropical aromas then stone fruit and citrus on the palate with a creamy texture, mineral notes, vibrant acidity and classic saline characters. Quite ripe and complex in style but with fresh balancing acidity and a classic saline character. This is an absolute benchmark Albariño from one of the top producers - the '23 vintage being oe of the best in recent memory, according to winemaker Diego Ríos.
Granbazán Limousin shows that Albarino can be world class - not just when lees-aged, but also with careful oak maturation. The aromas explode out of the glass with ripe peach, melon and marzipan character. Though this richness carries on to the palate, there is fantastic tension and brightness on display too. Alongside all the fruits the wine has lightly spicy notes and a saline, refreshing finish.
This Italian white wine has a honeyed, floral and spicy nose with hints of ginger and stone fruit. Ripe, sun-dried citrus characters follow on the palate with savoury notes and a creamy texture. There is a fresh balancing acidity and a lightly nutty finish.
Exceptional and unusually fine example of one of Italys most underrated white varieties. Fresh and lightly floral on the nose with savoury, nutty notes. The palate is complex with crisp citrus flavours, ripe stone fruit, and tropical characters on the textured mid-palate. A subtle and multi-layered wine with immediately appealing freshness and fruit leading to a taut, savoury, mineral finish. Fantastic with grilled white meats, risotto and pasta.
Brilliant clear golden yellow. Intensely flowery (violets), and fruity (apricot, peaches and citrus). Fresh and round. Rich, unctuous and full bodied. Harmonious with light acidity and round fleshy fruits. Delicate and elegant.
Very dry, racy, and firm and yet opens up with lively jasmine, spicy ginger, white tea floral notes over a structured palate and intense, mineral finish. Feels like a drive through the luscious Golden Bay.
A breezy, maritime nose of seagrass and salinity with pink citrus notes greets a palate of concentrated margarita zest, green and red apple notes with a rich mouthfeel, fine lees texture and an intense finish of breadth, freshness and further telltale salinity. Feels like a breezy walk on a sunny beach.
