Along the Loire's northeasternmost vineyards, where limestone and flint mix in the soil, the Gaudry family has grown Sauvignon Blanc for six generations. Traditionnel 2024 is the appellation's answer to what Pouilly-Fume tastes like when kept simple and honest.

Expert's Description

Nicolas Gaudry 2024 Traditionnel Pouilly-Fume is a White Wine from the Loire Valley made from Sauvignon Blanc with an alcohol content of 12.5%. The estate is based in Tracy-sur-Loire, right in the heart of the Pouilly-Fume appellation, where the soil shifts between limestone, clay and the region's signature flint, which gives the wine its smoky minerality.

Nicolas Gaudry took over the family estate in 2003 and has since expanded it from 2 to around 30 hectares, farmed under HVE certification. Traditionnel is the house's entry cuvee, fermented in steel tanks to preserve the fruit's freshness and the soil's minerality.

Near Flemming, close to Vejle, lies Christianelund. The Gold family planted their first vines in 2014 - the original plan was horses, but the family grew to six children, and a vineyard came instead. Solaris Øst is named after the east-facing plot, where the grapes are woken by the morning sun.

Expert's Description

Christianelund Gold 2021 Solaris Øst is a White Wine from Christianelund Vingård in Denmark made from the Solaris grape, bottled at 11.7% ABV.

Solaris is a hybrid grape developed in 1975 in Freiburg by researcher Norbert Becker - bred specifically for climates like Denmark's, which sit right on the edge of what grapevines can handle. At Christianelund, the Solaris plots are split into two sections, one facing west and one facing east, and this bottle comes from the east-facing plot, where the grapes get morning dew and the cooler early sun. That gives the wine a touch more tension in the acidity than its western sibling.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Gooseberry and citrus, with a touch of elderflower - slightly sharper in outline than you usually see from Solaris.

Palate

Fresh and crisp, with fine tension and a touch of green apple.

Finish

Clean and refreshing, with the acidity being the last thing to linger.

Serving & Food Pairing

Serve chilled at 8-10°C in a white wine glass. The fresh acidity makes it a natural match for fish, shellfish and chicken - or enjoy it as a light aperitif.

The name is a wry nod to the sometimes overly solemn California wine scene - Smoking Loon doesn't take itself too seriously, but there's nothing to laugh at in the bottle.

Expert's Description

Smoking Loon The Original Pinot Noir is a Californian Red Wine from California in the USA made from 100% Pinot Noir, bottled at 13.5% ABV.

The Original is the house's foundation cuvée and an approachable introduction to the Pinot Noir grape, otherwise known for being notoriously fussy to grow. California's sunny climate gives the grapes the ripeness needed for a full, fruit-driven style - without the complexity that can make the grape intimidating for beginners.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Brilliant garnet colour accompanied by a seductive aroma of rose petals and green tea.

Palate

Deeply extracted cherry and strawberry flavours, with a light tannic edge reminiscent of pomegranate seeds.

Finish

Fresh and fruity, of moderate length.

In 1990, Badger Mountain became the first certified organic vineyard in the state of Washington. The family has stuck to the same philosophy ever since - grapes grown without pesticides, and wine without added sulfites, just what nature puts in the bottle on its own.

Expert's Description

Badger Mountain Vineyard Chardonnay Organic 2019 is a White Wine from Columbia Valley in the USA made from the Chardonnay grape, bottled at 12.5% ABV.

The vineyard sits on an 80-acre estate in Kennewick in eastern Washington and was, in 1990, the first certified organic vineyard in the state. The grapes are grown entirely without synthetic fertiliser or pesticides, and the wine is labelled NSA - No Sulfites Added - meaning the only sulfites in the bottle are the ones that occur naturally during fermentation.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Pineapple, banana and honeydew melon, with a mineral undertone.

Palate

Grapefruit and pear, rounded off by a touch of vanilla and bright, fresh acidity.

Finish

Clean and refreshing, with the acidity being the last thing to linger.

No dosage, nowhere to hide. Mandois Zero Dosage is Champagne in its purest form - just the grape, the cellar and time.

Expert's Description

Mandois Zero Dosage Brut is a Sparkling Wine from Champagne, France made from the house's classic grape varieties, bottled at 12% ABV.

Zero Dosage - also called Brut Nature or Brut Zéro - means no sugar is added after the second fermentation. That places real demands on the grapes' own ripeness and balance, since there's no sweetness to mask any rough edges. For Mandois, with roots back to 1735 and the ninth generation at the helm in Pierry, it's an exercise in letting the terroir and the craftsmanship speak for themselves, completely unfiltered.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Clean and direct, with a clear imprint of the grape itself rather than sweetness.

Palate

Sharp and mineral, with acidity standing fully upfront with nothing to soften it.

Finish

Dry and long, with a clean, almost taut close.

Serving & Food Pairing

Serve at 8-10°C in a champagne glass. The sharp, dry style makes it a natural match for oysters, raw fish and other shellfish with a clean, salty character.

Not all Champagne has to be bone dry. Mandois Demi Sec is the house's answer for those who prefer more sweetness in the glass - still built on the same 1735 roots as the rest of the range.

Expert's Description

Mandois Demi Sec is a Sparkling Wine from Champagne, France made from the house's classic grape varieties, bottled at 12% ABV.

Demi Sec means half-dry and carries a dosage of around 35 grams of sugar per litre, giving it a noticeably sweeter style than the house's Brut cuvées. Champagne Mandois dates back to 1735 and is run today by the ninth generation in Pierry - the tradition of genuine craftsmanship stays the same, whether the Champagne ends up dry or sweet.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Ripe, golden fruit with a touch of honey.

Palate

Rich and round, with clear sweetness balanced by the Champagne's natural acidity.

Finish

Softly rounded and lingering.

Serving & Food Pairing

Serve at 8-10°C in a champagne glass. Demi Sec pairs beautifully with desserts, fruit tarts or foie gras - or enjoy it on its own as a sweeter way to end the evening.

The same Origine cuvée as the house's 75 cl bottle, but in magnum format - the size many sommeliers prefer, since the Champagne matures more calmly and evenly behind the larger glass wall.

Expert's Description

Mandois Brut Origine Magnum is a Sparkling Wine from Champagne, France made from Meunier, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, bottled at 12% ABV.

Origine is Mandois' classic cuvée, blending the house's three grape varieties, and represents the core of the style from a Champagne house with roots back to 1735, run today by the ninth generation in Pierry. In magnum, the Champagne has more room to develop slowly, often giving an even more integrated result - and the format is a natural choice when several guests are sharing a bottle.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Fresh fruit with a touch of pastry.

Palate

Well balanced, with an interplay between Meunier's fruit, Chardonnay's finesse and Pinot Noir's power.

Finish

Clean and refreshing, of moderate length.

Serving & Food Pairing

Serve at 8-10°C in champagne glasses. The magnum format is a natural choice for parties and larger gatherings where the Champagne is shared throughout the meal.

Where Blanc de Noirs is the house's purest statement, Brut Origine is Mandois' everyday cuvée - the one that shows what the house fundamentally stands for. Nine generations in Pierry have taught the family that the best argument is what's in the glass.

Expert's Description

Mandois Brut Origine is a Sparkling Wine from Champagne, France made from Meunier, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, bottled at 12% ABV.

The Origine cuvée blends the house's three classic grape varieties and represents the core of Mandois' style - genuine, thorough craftsmanship without the big gestures. Champagne Mandois dates back to 1735 and has been based in Pierry since 1905, where the ninth generation now farms 33 hectares, a large share of it certified organic. Over the years, the house's Champagnes have earned a reputation as a preferred supplier to French Michelin-starred restaurants.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Fresh fruit with a touch of pastry, in a classic Champagne style.

Palate

Well balanced, with an interplay between the three grape varieties - Meunier's fruit, Chardonnay's finesse and Pinot Noir's power.

Champagne Mandois dates back to 1735, when winegrower and cooper Jean Mandois is first mentioned in the records. Nine generations later, the house still stands in Pierry, near Épernay - and this Blanc de Noirs is a tribute to that long history.

Expert's Description

Mandois Blanc de Noirs 2018 Brut is a Sparkling Wine from Champagne, France made from 100% Pinot Noir, bottled at 12% ABV.

Victor-Auguste Mandois moved the house to Pierry in 1905, installing both a press and a cellar on the property - an unconventional move at the time. Today the ninth generation runs the house's 33 hectares, a large share of which is certified organic, making Mandois one of Champagne's largest organic growers. This 1er Cru Blanc de Noirs is made entirely from Pinot Noir from the 2018 harvest, vinified 80% in steel and 20% in oak, and rested more than four years on the lees before disgorgement. The dosage is low, just 6 grams of sugar per litre.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Ripe red berries with a touch of toasted bread from the long lees ageing.

Palate

Full and direct, with the Pinot Noir grape's characteristic power and a firm, mineral undertone.

Finish

Dry and long, the low dosage clear in the clean, non-sweet finish.

Serving & Food Pairing

Serve at 8-10°C in a champagne glass. The body makes it suitable for a whole meal - from shellfish to red meat - not just as an aperitif.

Unfiltered and unfined, made the way Port was made before modern cellar technology, Crusted 2015 quietly matures in its bottle. The sediment that slowly forms in the glass is the proof that nothing has been stripped from the wine along the way.

Expert's Description

Graham's Crusted 2015 Portugal Port is a Portuguese Crusted Port from the Douro Valley, bottled without filtration in 2015 and poured at 20%.

Crusted is a blend of high-quality young Ports from different harvest years, bottled without fining or filtration in the year stated on the label — in this case, 2015. Because the wine isn't filtered, it naturally forms a sediment, a 'crust', in the bottle, which gives the style its name.

After bottling, Graham's Crusted is aged for at least three to four years at Graham's 1890 Lodge in Vila Nova de Gaia before release. This extended bottle ageing gives the wine a maturity closer to a Vintage Port than most other Ruby styles, though without the single-estate or single-harvest signature.

The style is one of the last in Graham's range still made the way Port was produced in the 19th century, making it a fitting choice for anyone wanting to taste a historic production method without paying for a declared vintage.

Tasting Notes

Nose

The nose offers ripe cherries, blackcurrant and dark forest berries, spiced with a touch of eucalyptus and fresh mint.

Palate

The palate is concentrated and layered, with dark fruit, a hint of spice and a firmness that reveals the extended bottle ageing.

Finish

The finish is long and dry, closing with a last suggestion of menthol and dark chocolate.

Did You Know?

Because Crusted isn't filtered, it forms a natural sediment in the bottle — hence the name. That makes it one of the few Ports in Graham's regular range that requires decanting before serving, just like a declared Vintage Port.
