Whites Case of the Month (December), 6 bottles

This month's selection is a better, with some outstanding, crowd-pleasing whites in the box. Case contents are as follows: 

PIERRE CHAINIER MUSCADET (Loire, France)

Crisp, dry, and as fresh as a daisy - this crowd-pleasing white is the perfect party quaffer. It also goes very nicely with a bit of fish and seafood, with its delicate citrus tang.

HOLY SNAIL SAUVIGNON BLANC (Loire, France)

This wonderful white sits somewhere between a New Zealand and a French Sauvignon taste-wise. It's packed with zesty lime and grapefruit flavours and a subtle tropical fruit finish. Captivatingly fresh, beautifully balanced, long and full in the mouth, it unleashes many complex aromas, as well as floral notes. A must have!

CIRCLE OF LIFE WHITE (Western Cape, South Africa)

A delicious blend of Chenin Blanc and Sauvignon Blanc, this boasts triopical fruit flavours, with a hint of lime and pear. This is intense, flavourful, and incredibly mouth-watering!

LA LISSE ’SOIE D’IVOIRE' CHENIN BLANC (Aude, France)

“Soft, ivory silk” by name, this Chenin Blanc from the South of France is silky on the palate too. Gently citrussy and herbal aromas lead to a densely fruity, peachy palate with great texture and a clean, lifted finish.This is perfect to drink without food, but if you’d like to pair it  with some dishes, try warmly spiced food -  Thai red curries and aromatic rice, spicy mango salads or even a fruity chicken tagine.

CORK OF THE NORTH VINHO VERDE (Minho, Portugal)

This delicious Vinho Verde is the first of our ‘own-production’ wines – an exclusive cuvee that we have expertly blended at the Casa de Vila Nova winery in Sousa, at the eastern edge of the Vinho Verde region in Northern Portugal. We have blended three indigenous grape varieties for this modern, vibrant Vinho Verde – Loureiro, Avesso and Arinto. There are floral, citrus and gentle tropical aromas, and then on the palate is it deliciously off-dry, with flavours of ripe melon and a sherbert lemon acidity. The finish/after-taste is super refreshing, with a classic spritz. This lip-smackingly delicious white wine really is sunshine in a glass. It’s great as an aperitif with salads, sushi or grilled fish – but this is a wine that can be happily drank on its own without food.

ONTANON RIOJA BLANCO (Rioja, Spain)

Produced solely from the grape Viura and given 4 months in American oak to mellow you get just the right balance between ripe tropical fruit and toasty brioche. This boasts opulent aromas of pear and jasmine, with tropical notes and well-integrated but obvious oak. The palate is poised with vanilla oak characters, but left fresh by balancing acidity. Flavours of pineapple, crisp lemon, and brioche notes on the finish.

*Please note that all of the wines in this case are suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
