8. Churton Sauvignon Blanc, Marlborough, New Zealand £19.95
A delicious grassy, nettly, gooseberry flavoured Sauvignon full of ripe passion fruit and mango flavours with a mineral finish. This wine is extremely well balanced with fine mouth watering acidity and a lingering finish.
Rose Wines

With a smart new presentation and sharpened blend, the medium-sweet rose is slightly sparkling and probably one of Portugal’s most famous exports.

A good characterful Champagne with fine mousse, full fruity flavour and a toasty finish.
12. Moet et Chandon Brut Imperial, France £34.95
Attractive and gently floral with green apples and citrus notes. Clean and fresh, with more apple and citrus fruit and an almost flinty character. This will develop further complexity if aged for eighteen months or so.
13. Asti, Ca’Solare, Italy £14.95
A sweet, scented wine made from the Moscato grape. This is well-balanced, with a distinctive grapey, almost lemon sherbet flavour that is not too cloying in the mouth.
14. Prosecco Vino Frizzante, Veneto, Fabio Ceschin, Italy £19.95
The Prosecco grapes for this wine are from the foothills of the Conegliano and Valdobbiadene. The result is a gently sparkling wine with lovely peachy fruit; the palate is deliciously juicy with super balance. A great aperitif.

Blender and bottler Manfredi makes a good value Barolo with aromas of dried fruit and leather then a rich mouthful with a good balance of acidity and tannin.

Amarone is a powerful, concentrated dry red that is properly made from grapes that have been dried in airy barns. The Zeni family makes a superb example with mature, complex flavours.
