Adobe, Gewurztraminer, Chile, 2008 (organic)

Adobe Gewurztraminer is an aromatic wine, helped along with a splash of Sauvignon Blanc, with hints of orange blossom and candied citrus bruits. Something completely different from the likes of Chardonnay, this is an engaging wine with a vibrant finish.

Adobe, Sauvignon Blanc, Chile, 2008 (organic)

Adobe Reserva Sauvignon Blanc has fresh citrus aromas with hints of gooseberry on the nose. The palate displays green apple flavours with a crisp, refreshing finish. A quality wine from an organic, wildlife filled vineyard.

Cheese pairings: Goats’ cheese – Gouda, Chevre, Crottin, Picholin, Ranscombe, Raclette.

Chateau Roquefort, Sauvignon Blanc/Semillion, Bordeaux, France, 2007

A wine of intense colour, white and gold with green tints. The nose is clean and very expressive, characterised by citrus notes. On the palate the attack is frank, refreshing. The elegance of this wine makes a wonderfully racy aperitif and accompaniment to seafood and fish.

Cheese pairings: Goats’ cheese – Couda, Chevre, Crottin, Picholin, Ranscombe.

Vida, Organica, Torrontes, Argentina, 2008

Pale and delicate in colour with fresh and intense fruity aromas and flavours. Hints of apple, peach and herbaceousness lend this wine its intriguingly refreshing character.

Cheese pairings: Gouda, Ranscombe, Caerphilly.

Conviviale, Pinot Grigio, Italy, 2008

A crisp and lively dry white wine. Lightly aromatic with characters of peach and citrus fruits on the nose. It is medium bodied with fresh lemony fruit and underlying hints of nuts and a gentle honeyed finish.

Cheese pairings: Goats’ cheese – Gouda, Chevre, Crotting, Ranscombe; Smoked Orkney, Mozzarella, Ricotta.

Mont Albano, Grillo, Sicily, Italy, 2008 (organic)

Gillo is a white grape variety which withstands high temperatures and is widely used in Sicilian wine-making. A native grape to Sicily, this wine produces a lovely fresh, zesty wine which is easy to drink. Produced from organically sourced grapes.

Cheese pairings: Gouda, Ranscombe, Caerphilly.

Domaine de Vedilhan, Viognier, Languedoc, France, 2009

Domaine de Vedilhan has clean, appealing textbook Viognier aromas of ripe pears and peaches with a twist of Turkish Delight that merge into a palate of matching flavours. The fresh vibrant fruit is very neat, not over-the-top expressive as some Viogniers can become, but light, zippy and elegant.

Cheese pairings: Another well-rounded cheese wine, it will compliment most cheese, especially Brie, Perl Wen, Le Delice des Cremieres, Gouda, Caerphilly.

Caliterra Reserva, Chardonnay, Chile, 2007

The aromas of Caliterra Reserva Chardonnay reaffirm its quality with their evident freshness. The green tones around the rim of the glass resemble a young wine endorsed by the aromas of delicious tropical fruit like guava and banana and by a classical honey background, but yet with a mineral touch that makes it special. In the mouth it is dry with nerve and the medium body extends its perception.

Cheese pairings: Brie de Meaux, Perl Wen, St Nectaire.

Senorio de Sarria, Moscatel, Spain, 2008

Golden yellow colour. Clean clear and bright. Intense and complex nose (characteristic of the varietal), ample and sweet in the mouth. Lengthy finish showing raisin, peach and honey character, the aromatic and fruity essence of the Ribera Baja of Navarre. This naturally sweet wine is made from muscatel grapes from vineyards controlled by Senorio de Sarria. The vines are located in the southern Riber Baja of Navarre, a superior setting for growing this grape variety because of its luminosity.

Cheese pairings: Blue cheese – Stilton, Perl Las, Picos Blue, Roquefort.

Casal Mendes, Rose, N/V

A light pink, refreshing and fruity rose, bursting with aromas of strawberries, raspberries, pear drops and pineapples. On the palate Casa Mendes Rose is soft and fruity with a light sparkle. A delicious summer wine with nice fresh acidity on the finish.

Cheese pairings: Gouda, Ranscombe, Caerphilly, Parmesan.

Nostros Reserva, Pinot Noir, Chile, 2008/09

Lovely floral notes on the nose and smooth red fruits on the palate. A delicate and elegant wine from the Casablanca Valley.

Siglo Saco, Rioja Crianza, Spain, 2006

Lightly aromatic with characteristic sweet red berry fruit and a hint of perfumed oak, soft and warm finish. A hugely popular, easy-drinking Rioja.

Cheese pairings: Manchego, Tomme de Savoire.

Artesa Organic, Rioja Tinto, Spain, 2007

The quality of the fruit shines through in the first release of Artesa Organic Rioja which is impressively dense and richly flavoured with vibrant plum and black cherry fruit.

Cheese pairings: Manchego, Tomme for Savoire

Chateau Roquefort, Merlot/Cabernet Sauvignon, Bordeaux, France 2007

Beautiful deep colour, fine nose and subtle with notes of red fruit aromas. Roasting, vanilla, soft and fruity on the palate. Delicacy and length to this wine, with fine and light tannins.

Cheese pairings: Parmesan, Pecorino, Provolone Picante, Mature Cheddar.

Domaine de Vedilhan, Syrah/Viognier, Languedoc, France, 2007

Domaine de Vedilhan Syrah is a complex wine from the heart of the Languedoc. Rich, juicy and full of ripe berry fruit flavours. Throughout the palate the wine delivers lush fruit and spice (from the Syrah) with voluptuous richness and floral aromas (from the Viognier). The combination of flavours make it a perfect match to savoury Mediterranean cuisine and grilled of roasted red meat.
