The land is basically formed by hills that increase in height as it goes east towards the Coastal Mountain Range. It has an alluvial origin, with sandy textures of high permeability, poor and shallow, which causes the valley to have low yields, compared to others. The temperatures are colder and templates, causing a slower ripening in the fruit and, in consequence, great character in flavour and aroma, for white varieties like Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe grapes come from vineyards that are approximately 12 years old in the Casablanca estate, trellised in simple vertical shoot position, with an average yield of 12 tons\/ha.

The grapes were transported to our Nancagua winery for vinification in stainless steel tanks at low temperatures with selected yeasts, pumpovers, and delicate lees stirring to reach the desired final result.

Motte's wines are regularly chosen for the Tastevinage label, a rigorous selection by the Confrérie des Chevaliers de Tastevin of wines they regard as offering the best of the region in terms of quality and style.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.604%;\"\u003eYear\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9524%;\"\u003e2022\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.604%;\"\u003eBottle Size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9524%;\"\u003e750ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.604%;\"\u003eCultivar\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9524%;\"\u003e100% Chardonnay\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.604%;\"\u003eCountry\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9524%;\"\u003eFrance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.604%;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eAlcohol content\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9524%;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e13% alc vol \u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.604%;\"\u003eUnits of Alcohol per Bottle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9524%;\"\u003e9.8 units\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.604%;\"\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9524%;\"\u003eWhite Wine\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.604%;\"\u003eCellaring Potential\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9524%;\"\u003eAt least 5 years\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.604%;\"\u003eAllergen Information\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9524%;\"\u003eContains Sulphites\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.604%;\"\u003eDietary Information\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9524%;\"\u003eAwaiting info\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.604%;\"\u003eFood Matches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9524%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRicher style of fish dishes, shellfish, chicken and creamy sauce.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.604%;\"\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9524%;\"\u003eBurgundy\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.604%;\"\u003eAppellation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9524%;\"\u003eChablis\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Boutinot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":30915497426998,"sku":null,"price":29.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0174\/5118\/8278\/products\/24._Domaine_de_la_Motte_Chablis_1st_Cru_Vau-Ligneau.jpg?v=1572287253"},{"product_id":"2023-domaine-g-saumaize-pouilly-fuisse-grande-reserve-maillettes","title":"2023 Domaine G.

Vineyards lie in the undulating foothills of the Moncayo mountain, ranging from around 350m to 800m above sea level. At lower altitudes vines are younger and may require some irrigation, but higher up the slopes the vines are older, unirrigated bush vines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe climate is rather severe and arid, with hot dry days, and cool nights - which allow optimium acidity levels to be maintained within the grapes. Garnacha thrives in these conditions and represents 65% of total production. The Cierzo wind from the Moncayo sweeps across the foothills of the mountain. This cold, dry wind reduces humidity levels and allows grapes to be picked a couple of weeks later in the harvest, at full maturity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBorsao has access to a large number of vineyard plots at different altitudes, and hence to a wide selection of fantastic quality grapes.

The block was originally earmarked as the local cricket ground before they decided to plant a vineyard instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSimilarly, Brokenwood purchased their neighbouring block, which was intended to be the local cemetery, and instead planted Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon, becoming their critically acclaimed flagship wine, the Graveyard Vineyard Shiraz. Chief Winemaker and Managing Director Iain Riggs joined Brokenwood in 1982 and introduced new winery equipment and facilities specifically for premium white wine production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince 1983, white wine makes up a significant part of total production and their Semillon is widely recognized as one of the finest in the world. Iain has also been the driving force behind Brokenwood’s expansion into the McLaren Vale in South Australia, Beechworth in Victoria, Margaret River in Western Australia, and Orange in New South Wales. Despite their expansion, they have managed to remain fiercely committed to producing unique and high-quality expressions of Australian terroir.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAlan's Personal Tasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"Astounding balance of fresh fruit and oak in this beauty.

After harvesting the grapes for this wine were transported a short distance to the winery before being gently pressed. Cold settled over 48 hours, the resulting clear juice was racked into tanks for inoculation with yeast carefully selected to retain fruit purity. After fermentation at reasonably cool temperatures, the wine then underwent secondary malo-lactic fermentation before being aged in tank. Lees stirring was employed to build texture and complexity while still retaining fruit freshness, before being filtered and bottled in February 2019 without the need for any fining.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"p2\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eProducer\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eTohu produces award-winning New Zealand wine crafted from grapes grown in our breathtakingly beautiful, Awatere Valley vineyard.

Together, they expanded the cellars and the winery, and developed the business outside Europe.

Grapes are picked earlier than usual to ensure balance and freshness in the final wine. Harvesting took place in the early dawn hours when it’s still cool and calm which helps retain the rich characters within these grapes. Once in the cellar, they are gently crushed to maintain the bright, fresh flavours crucial to the clonal tang. Around 15% of the grapes are sourced from the cooler, sea breeze-influenced Langhorne Creek area. This portion is barrel-aged in French medium toast casks to obtain a more complex, textural and weighty style of wine. It is then added to the greater part of the blend which is fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel to retain the fresh fruit characters.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAlan's Personal Tasting Notes\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\"Soldiers block is a new (affordable) range to us – and the Chardonnay certainly under promises and over-delivers.

Medium-bodied, medium to high acidity, good length, and altogether well made - but I’m guessing not as classy as the Mac Forbes Chardonnay (which is obviously at a different price point!) - but very good value indeed.\" April 2023\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 37.4079%;\" data-mce-style=\"width: 37.4079%;\"\u003eYear\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 58.5921%;\" data-mce-style=\"width: 58.5921%;\"\u003e2022\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 37.4079%;\" data-mce-style=\"width: 37.4079%;\"\u003eBottle Size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 58.5921%;\" data-mce-style=\"width: 58.5921%;\"\u003e750ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 37.4079%;\" data-mce-style=\"width: 37.4079%;\"\u003eCultivar\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 58.5921%;\" data-mce-style=\"width: 58.5921%;\"\u003e100% Chardonnay\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 37.4079%;\" data-mce-style=\"width: 37.4079%;\"\u003eCountry\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 58.5921%;\" data-mce-style=\"width: 58.5921%;\"\u003eAustralia\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 37.4079%;\" data-mce-style=\"width: 37.4079%;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eAlcohol content\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 58.5921%;\" data-mce-style=\"width: 58.5921%;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e13% alc vol \u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 37.4079%;\" data-mce-style=\"width: 37.4079%;\"\u003eUnits of Alcohol per Bottle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 58.5921%;\" data-mce-style=\"width: 58.5921%;\"\u003e9.8 units\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 37.4079%;\" data-mce-style=\"width: 37.4079%;\"\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 58.5921%;\" data-mce-style=\"width: 58.5921%;\"\u003eWhite Wine\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 37.4079%;\" data-mce-style=\"width: 37.4079%;\"\u003eAllergen Information\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 58.5921%;\" data-mce-style=\"width: 58.5921%;\"\u003eContains Sulphites\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 37.4079%;\" data-mce-style=\"width: 37.4079%;\"\u003eFood Matches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 58.5921%;\" data-mce-style=\"width: 58.5921%;\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBarbecued baby squid on a bed of fragrant fresh fennel, basil, coriander and bay leaves, or for something a little heartier, earthy mushroom and taleggio risotto.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 37.4079%;\" data-mce-style=\"width: 37.4079%;\"\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 58.5921%;\" data-mce-style=\"width: 58.5921%;\"\u003eVictoria\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 37.4079%;\" data-mce-style=\"width: 37.4079%;\"\u003eAppellation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 58.5921%;\" data-mce-style=\"width: 58.5921%;\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eYarra Valley\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Boutinot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44769243824419,"sku":"ASO001","price":19.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0174\/5118\/8278\/files\/SoumahChardonnay_7378da6a-9932-439e-b142-abb8814b9d8f.png?v=1683888146"},{"product_id":"2021-vallet-freres-bourgogne-blanc","title":"2021 Vallet Frères Bourgogne Blanc","description":"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eTraditional white Burgundy.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis beautifully balanced and classic white Burgundy has a savoury, salty, baked peach and biscuity nose with a rich and broad palate that is balanced with moreish, acidity.

A company that not only sought out great wines but made them too. After 10 years later, Boutinot France started in January 1990.

She is at the heart of the whole process from blending to quality assessment, making sure there is always a Boutinot touch in every cuvée. We are proud to also count Guillaume Letang and Julien Dugas in our winemaking team. Guillaume oversees the South of France and Languedoc, whilst Julien looks after our property in Cairanne.

Boutinot began as a tiny importer in 1980, specialising in French wines. Paul Boutinot himself began by personally selecting the wines from France, back in the UK he would unload the trailer by hand. And deliver the crates of wines to customers himself. But good things grow and by the end of the decade,they had become a bigger and better company. A company that not only sought out great wines but made them too. After 10 years later, Boutinot France started in January 1990. The first office was in the middle of the vines in Julienas; perfectly located to navigate the Beaujolais and Macon regions on the quest to make beautiful wines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSamantha Bailey, who started as a wine enthusiast, was there at the beginning of this adventure. Since then, she has grown into our Master Blender and has key responsibilities: building long-standing relationships, tasting, understanding the terroir and appellations, and pushing the boundaries. She is at the heart of the whole process from blending to quality assessment, making sure there is always a Boutinot touch in every cuvée.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey are proud to also count Guillaume Letang and Julien Dugas in their winemaking team. Guillaume oversees the South of France and Languedoc, whilst Julien looks after the property in Cairanne. Together they have the local knowledge to select and blend the very best wines from throughout. Eric Monnin oversees every aspect of production and makes sure everything the winemakers blend and source is top quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProduction\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Bellefontaine range has established an international reputation for consistent quality and value. Every year Boutinot winemakers select only quality parcels of wine from different estates and producers, each contributing key components to the finished blend. Bellefontaine wines possess fine aromatics, pure fruit expression, fresh acidity, varietal character and above all a persistent finish. The goal is to create a range of wines of consistent quality that are delicious to drink on their own but that also complement food well. They've blended Chardonnay from Gascony for purity and freshness with Chardonnay from Pays d'Oc for varietal character and texture. By blending these two, they've taken the best from each region to create a harmonious, unoaked Chardonnay.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"container-inner beige_background\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-12\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"sectionheader\"\u003eSpecifications\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"height: 330.4px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 46.1104%; height: 22px;\"\u003eYear\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 46.8896%; height: 22px;\"\u003e2025\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 46.1104%; height: 22px;\"\u003eBottle Size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 46.8896%; height: 22px;\"\u003e750ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 46.1104%; height: 22px;\"\u003eCultivar\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 46.8896%; height: 22px;\"\u003e100% Chardonnay\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 46.1104%; height: 22px;\"\u003eCountry\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 46.8896%; height: 22px;\"\u003eFrance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 39.2px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 46.1104%; height: 39.2px;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\nAlcohol content\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 46.8896%; height: 39.2px;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n12.5% alc vol \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 46.1104%; height: 22px;\"\u003eUnits of Alcohol per Bottle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 46.8896%; height: 22px;\"\u003e9.4 units\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 46.1104%; height: 22px;\"\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 46.8896%; height: 22px;\"\u003eWhite Wine\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 46.1104%; height: 22px;\"\u003eAllergen Information\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 46.8896%; height: 22px;\"\u003eContains Sulphites\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 39.2px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 46.1104%; height: 39.2px;\"\u003eFeatures\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 46.8896%; height: 39.2px;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\nVegetarian.

Very low yields are controlled by strict pruning practices. Limestone\/clay soils are ploughed, and the grapes are hand harvested. Rigorous grape selection and no destemming (Vallet, like Domaine de la Romanee-Conti are just one of a number of producers who still favour this technique). Grapes undergo immediate pneumatic pressing (to avoid oxidization) and fermentation in oak barrels with \"batonnage\" every day. Barrels are rolled to gently combine the lees and wine. After 14-16 months in cask the wine is bottled following a light filtration.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAlan's Personal Tasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"Well well - this was a pleasant surprise! To be honest - I wasn’t expecting too much from this 12 YO burgundy from a very traditional producer - but it’s delicious. Initial high toast aromas (signifying new oak) prevailed but soon gave way to a lovely rich creaminess. The fruit has a lovely savoury element to it and the still high lemony acidity keeps it fresh. Worked perfectly with my fabulous wife’s bacon \u0026amp; tomato risotto.   The wine also evolved well in the glass through a little oxidation and developed very well with time.

Motte's wines are regularly chosen for the Tastevinage label, a rigorous selection by the Confrérie des Chevaliers de Tastevin of wines they regard as offering the best of the region in terms of quality and style.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"p2\"\u003eAwards\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"award-year-title\"\u003e2022 IWSC Silver Medal (2020 Vintage)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.604%;\"\u003eYear\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9524%;\"\u003e2023\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.604%;\"\u003eBottle Size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9524%;\"\u003e750ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.604%;\"\u003eCultivar\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9524%;\"\u003e100% Chardonnay\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.604%;\"\u003eCountry\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9524%;\"\u003eFrance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.604%;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eAlcohol content\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9524%;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e13% alc vol \u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.604%;\"\u003eUnits of Alcohol per Bottle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9524%;\"\u003e10.1 units\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.604%;\"\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9524%;\"\u003eWhite Wine\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.604%;\"\u003eCellaring Potential\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9524%;\"\u003eAwaiting Info\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.604%;\"\u003eAllergen Information\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9524%;\"\u003eContains Sulphites\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.604%;\"\u003eFood Matches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9524%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe perfect match for Burgundian cheeses such as Epoisses; slightly creamy, richer meals with chicken or fish; moussaka; spinach and ricotta pie.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.604%;\"\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9524%;\"\u003eChablis, Burgundy\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.604%;\"\u003eAppellation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.9524%;\"\u003eChablis\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Boutinot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46646949282083,"sku":null,"price":23.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0174\/5118\/8278\/files\/DomaineDeLaMotteChablisVieillesVignes.png?v=1695910239"},{"product_id":"2020-21-vina-ambrosia-vina-unica-chardonnay","title":"2020\/21 Vina Ambrosia Vina Unica Chardonnay","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIt is a classic modern Chardonnay style, with elegant oak use, and delicate integration and balance.

Michel Laroche is the patriarch of the family and after decades as the director of Domaine Laroche, he decided in 2010 to sell his stake in the business and set up a smaller domaine, named after his father Henri. Michel had been leasing his private vineyards to the Laroche brand for many years and these vineyards now form the core of the D’Henri range, including the 1er Cru Fourchaume vineyard where the oldest parcel was planted in 1937.The domaine follows organic practices and they have undertaken studies of their vineyards with the help of renowned soil specialist Claude Bourguignon, adapting techniques to different soils to help fully express the qualities of each site. Any new plantings are done using cuttings from the oldest vines in Fourchaume. Vinification is done on a parcel by parcel basis and with minimal intervention, the focus being on expressing the aromatic intensity of each parcel. The grapes are carefully whole-bunch pressed and fermented in stainless steel, followed by long lees ageing. Michel is a fan of freshness with only some of the wines undergoing partial malolactic fermentation, while oak is used sparingly and more as a seasoning. The result is a creamy, round and savoury style with tension and chalky minerality running through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"height: 307.4px;\" width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 37.4449%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003eYear\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 62.2247%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e2022\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 37.4449%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003eBottle Size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 62.2247%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e750ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 37.4449%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003eCultivar\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 62.2247%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e100% Chardonnay\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 37.4449%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003eCountry\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 62.2247%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003eFrance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 37.4449%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eAlcohol content\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 62.2247%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e12% alc vol \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 33px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 37.4449%; height: 33px;\"\u003eUnits of Alcohol per Bottle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 62.2247%; height: 33px;\"\u003e9 units\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 37.4449%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 62.2247%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003eWhite Wine\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 98px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 37.4449%; height: 98px;\"\u003eFood Match\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 62.2247%; height: 98px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEnjoy chilled, straight from the bottle—no shaking necessary.

This Hunter Valley Chardonnay is 100% barrel fermented and matured in a mix of new and young deluxe French oak barriques for six months, contributing harmony from start to finish. Malo-ferment is minimised to retain the natural vibrant and racy acid balance and freshness. Elegant bright fruit needs elegant oak handling as well, so lightly-toasted barrels of fine-grained French oak are used. The unclarified wine is left on lees in barrel for only 3 months so that it remains subdued and subtle, preserving the fruit freshness and the maximizing its potential for cellaring.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eProducer\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“I cannot remember being more impressed with an initial release of wines than those”, said James Halliday when he first tasted Keith Tulloch’s wines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese thoughtful, hand-crafted wines hail from the Hunter Valley with a nod in part to the great Rhône Valley wines of Hermitage and Cote Rôtie. For those who may have tasted any legendary Hunter Shiraz wines of the 40s, 50s and 60s, tasting many of the modern Hunter wines can be a depressing experience but Keith Tulloch is very different, adding to that great legacy with a series of wines that uniquely capture the exotic spice and hedonistic pleasure of dense and rich Shiraz fruit. These are sensuous, subtle wines with the velvety texture of fine burgundy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"p2\"\u003eSustainability\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeith Tulloch have attained the CLIMATE ACTIVE certification by the Australian Government. This means that the winery, vineyard and offices are certified carbon neutral as well as its wines (including glassware, boxes, shipping, bottling). This carbon neutral certification is one of the most rigorous in the world. Every emission created by the vineyard and the winemaking process has been reduced where possible; and where emissions are unavoidable the pollutants have been offset through carbon abatement so that the business and its products have zero net greenhouse gas emissions. Keith Tulloch is also a member of Sustainable Winegrowing Australia (previously known as Entwine) which requires wineries to report and reduce waste whilst promoting sustainable practices. A 65kw solar array has been installed, providing the vast majority of the estate’s power needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeith Tulloch winery and vineyards are also officially sustainable under the Sustainable Winegrowing Australia certification which was developed by the Australian Wine Research Institute (AWRI).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the vineyard Keith Tulloch engages in regenerative agriculture, minimising the use of chemical sprays and actively promoting soil health, life and biodiversity. It has started a program of revitalising native vegetation around the vineyard, which creates habitat for native insects, birds and animals which benefit the vineyard ecosystem. The business has eliminated single-use plastics and has instead moved onto biodegradable alternatives to prevent plastic waste. All Keith Tulloch wines have moved from heavy glass to lightweight eco glass, which considerably reduces greenhouse gas emissions from glass production and transport. The winery has enacted an array of water efficiency measures to eliminate water waste and to recycle waste water for use in the parks and gardens. The vineyard is now composted and fertilised only by organic fertiliser, re-using a product that would otherwise go to waste and reducing soil degradation and emissions from synthetic fertilisers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe estate continues to uphold organic viticulture principles in the vineyard, and this is improving year-on-year. Investments in agricultural equipment in the next financial year will further reduce the use of some chemical sprays, however there is no plan at this point to certify these practices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"height: 261.594px;\" width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 49.4604%; height: 22px;\"\u003eYear\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 50.3597%; height: 22px;\"\u003e2023\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 49.4604%; height: 22px;\"\u003eBottle Size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 50.3597%; height: 22px;\"\u003e750ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 49.4604%; height: 22px;\"\u003eCultivar\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 50.3597%; height: 22px;\"\u003e100% Chardonnay\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 49.4604%; height: 22px;\"\u003eCountry\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 50.3597%; height: 22px;\"\u003eNew South Wales, Australia\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 49.4604%; height: 22px;\"\u003eAlcohol content \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 50.3597%; height: 22px;\"\u003e12.5%\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 49.4604%; height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eUnits of Alcohol per Bottle\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 50.3597%; height: 22px;\"\u003e9.4 units\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 49.4604%; height: 22px;\"\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 50.3597%; height: 22px;\"\u003eWhite Wine\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 49.4604%; height: 22px;\"\u003eAllergen Information\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 50.3597%; height: 22px;\"\u003eContains sulphites\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 49.4604%; height: 22px;\"\u003eFood Matches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 50.3597%; height: 22px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDue to the oak ageing in this Chardonnay, it would stand up to strong flavours including, cheese soufflés, creamy, mustard sauces served with pork or chicken.

Akram creates both rich, concentrated reds and beautifully fresh, fruity and crisp whites that rank among the finest in the country.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 56.3081%;\"\u003eYear\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 43.512%;\"\u003e2023\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 56.3081%;\"\u003eBottle Size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 43.512%;\"\u003e750ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 56.3081%;\"\u003eCultivar\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 43.512%;\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eSauvignon Blanc 35%, Muscat 27%, Chardonnay 23%\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 56.3081%;\"\u003eCountry\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 43.512%;\"\u003eLebanon\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 56.3081%;\"\u003eAlcohol content\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 43.512%;\"\u003e12.5% alcohol \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 56.3081%;\"\u003eUnits of Alcohol per Bottle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 43.512%;\"\u003e9.4 units\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 56.3081%;\"\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 43.512%;\"\u003eWhite Wine\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 56.3081%;\"\u003eFeatures\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 43.512%;\"\u003eVegetarian \u0026amp; Vegan\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 56.3081%;\"\u003eDietary Information\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 43.512%;\"\u003eContains Sulphites\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 56.3081%;\"\u003eFood Matches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 43.512%;\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eDelicious with Antipasti and seafood.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 56.3081%;\"\u003eAppellation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 43.512%;\"\u003eBekaa Valley\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55349126889848,"sku":null,"price":21.59,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0174\/5118\/8278\/files\/2023ChateauKaSourceBlanche_BekaaValley_Lebanon.png?v=1762261802"},{"product_id":"2024-mabis-biscardo-oropasso-magnum","title":"2024 Mabis, Biscardo Oropasso (Gift Packed Magnum)","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eA magnum of golden elegance—fresh, floral, and unforgettable.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIntense straw yellow with greenish reflections.

Recas are now recognised globally for their impressive scale and breadth of fascinating wines, including natural and orange wine from organic grapes. Despite the scale the emphasis is on making good wines that over-deliver, and as a result they’ve struck on a magic formula that has seen sales and demand boom. Vineyards are a combination of evolved plantings from 1447 and more recent planting, whilst the winery has seen significant investment and boasts state of the art facilities where innovation thrives. Recas are in every way a modern, dynamic winery, whose open minded approach and quality sets them apart … a winery you really can’t ignore.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProduction\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrown on a variety of soils, from cracking clays to limestone rich loams.

Destemmed, lightly crushed and then chilled to 5° C and transferred to stainless steel temperature controlled maceration tanks, for 24 hours. Following this the grapes were lightly pressed, and the juice was fully decanted at low temperatures until completely clear before being inoculated with selected yeast, and fermented for 3 weeks at 15° C. Half of the wine was then aged for 3 months in oak with lees stirring to generate depth and complexity before being blended with the unoaked portion and prepared for bottling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAlan's Personal Tasting Note\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"This is delish.
