COTES DU RHONE - M. CHAPOUTIER
Love of wine and nature have led the Maison M. CHAPOUTIER to adopt biodynamic
cultivation. "Let the soil speak", and it will cultivate
it's own specific style. Braille has been present on all CHAPOUTIER
labels since '96. Maurice Monier who owns the Hermitage plot, also
invented the first version of abbreviated Braille. This pays tribute
to the man but also reaches out to all people with sight-impairments & lovers
of fine wine.

CUSUMANO MERLOT - SICILY
Two brothers have experimented with Daddy's vineyard for about 12 years
until finally happy enough with their results to release their own
wines in 2001. Vines up to 40 years old and a modern approach is a
fine combination and this is just dandy!

VISTAMAR CABERNET SAUVIGNON - Chile 2005
This is the last of an excellent brand of Chilean wines that I have stocked
for some time. Great session wines with classical grape varietal characteristics
at Chilean prices. |

VILLARRICA CHARDONNAY - CHILE
Attractive bright golden yellow colour with soft shades of green. Delicious
aromas of pineapple, mango and other tropical fruits. Delicate and
fresh on the palate with soft tones of vanilla and peach with a lovely
long tropical fruit finish. This is a
versatile Chardonnay that will match seafood, pasta and rice dishes as
well as roast chicken, turkey or loin of pork. |

CAPELL'S COURT SAUVIGNON BLANC
Part of the larger Linton Park Wine Estate, and overlooking the Paarl
region towards Table Mountain, they have their own microclimate due
to the higher vineyards and cooling breezes. Good quality stuff and
they recommend Asparagus, Bouillabaisse, Grilled fish, shellfish or
calamari! |

MUSCADET DE SÈVRE ET MAINE SUR LIE – Château
des Montys
The Maine & Sevre rivers converge south of Nantes in NW France. Look
out for the term sur lie on a label - the wine is bottled directly of
its sediment or lees, which helps keep the creamy, yeasty flavour and
a slight CO2 prickle! Best with the local sea-food & generally drunk
young. |
