Engaging, cherry-flavoured rosé with refreshing sweetness.
A Port lover’s dream. Made from Touriga Francesca, Tinta Roriz and others too, it’s a dense, inky-purple colour, and is a richly hedonistic experience (even in half bottle!). Complex, super ripe berried fruits are gently spiced, and its sweet and unctious palate is both elegant and balanced too, with real length. Casal dos Jordoes was the first and indeed only fully certified Port producer. Try their Tawny and Vintage too, all are drinking very well now, but will age gracefully. Remember also, there is no need to drink the bottle at one sitting, once opened it will keep well for a couple of weeks at least. Enjoy near a warming fire on its own, or with mature cheeses.
Clearspring Organic Red Wine Vinegar is made with selected organic grapes from Emilia Romagna, which are pressed and then slowly fermented in accordance with a time-honoured tradition. Natural ageing in wooden kegs provides interesting nuances of flavour, and contributes to the delicious well-rounded taste of this classic wine vinegar. With its rich colour and bold flavour, this vinegar makes superb vinaigrettes, dressings, marinades and sauces. Try using a little when braising red cabbage. Producer Clearspring Size 500ml
Reminiscent in colour to a good white wine, this vinegar makes it perfect for use in sauces such as Hollandaise.
A truly superior white wine vinegar with a clean, crisp flavour and a deliciously refreshing zingy fruit aroma.
Exotic and highly aromatic. Indulge yourself in this flavoursome wine made from Muscat d'Alexandria.
Previously only available on draught and available locally, it quickly became the most popular beer they did. So not surprisingly, this golden ale with toasted malt has now been put into bottle, for all to enjoy. Fantastic, fruity session beer.
Fine alcohol free craft beer
Super soft and easy-drinking no added sulphur Merlot.
Deep, bright colour and ripe fruit on the nose. Hints of jasmine and dark perfume. The wine has well-structured tannins from a post-ferment maceration. There is no wood influence, only ripe organic Merlot grapes. There is no sulphur added to this delicious wine, and we call this a low sulphur wine because in tests, ‘normal’ wines can have as much as 200 parts per million and this tested with just 5 parts per million.

Fantastic wine from Couronneau. Merlot-dominated, this Bordeaux has been made with ‘easy-drinking’ very much in mind. They’d probably kill us for saying so, but it’s got some of that New World ripeness that makes wines from countries like Chile so popular. Ripe, soft Merlot fruits dominate.
This winery was founded in the 1950s and sold wine in bulk to local wine merchants. When the Descombes took over, in 2017, everything changed. They switched its sights to quality, not quantity – focusing on the environmental conservation of their coveted Burgundy plots. They've even gone as far to plant hedges and trees and use natural fertilisers in the vineyards. This is their Petit Chablis, and it has all the classic flavours you'd expect: lemon and grapefruit, and a textbook lick of minerality.
"Fragrant and enjoyable, this offers aromas of ripe berry, Mediterranean herb, pressed violet and a whiff of pine forest. On the round easygoing palate, savory notes of brown cooking spice accent a core of red cherry and black raspberry. Enjoy through 2017." - 88/100, Wine Enthusiast
This must be our favourite new label! Rebo (see the number plate) is the local indigenous grape variety, and delivers bags of character in this nicely oaked, complex red that shows deep blackberry fruits and more. * colour of car on label varies
Top-quality wine crafted from only the best parcels of Chenin grapes at the Stellar estate. Double Gold - Michelangelo Awards 2018
A more serious wine from Stellar. From vineyards close to the mouth of the Olifants river, where cool early morning mists and afternoon breezes help with perfect grape maturation. Silky smooth flavours of white pear, lemon and toasty oak with a touch of honey, that lingers on this wine’s attractive, creamy finish.
