  • Bottle of Champagne from Paul Launois with label
    Item no.: 059763-615-333

    The Launois family calls Le Mesnil-sur-Oger home, the heart of the Côte des Blancs, where generations have grown Grand Cru Chardonnay. Contraste #1 is a deliberate break from that habit - a trip to the Ardre Valley west of Reims in search of something entirely different: Meunier.

    Expert's Description

    Paul Launois Contraste #1 is a Sparkling Wine from Champagne, France made from 100% Meunier, bottled at 12.5% ABV.

    Julien and Sarah Launois founded the house in 2015, naming it after their son Paul. The family's 6.5 hectares of Grand Cru vines lie in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, close to the famous Clos de Mesnil plots - but for the Contraste series they source grapes from a completely different place: the Ardre Valley, where Meunier grows on clay-limestone and clay-marl soils along the river. Contraste #1 is built on the 2019 harvest, fermented spontaneously with the wine's own wild yeasts and vinified 57% in steel and 43% in oak, before ageing 24 months on the lees. The low dosage - Extra Brut - lets the grape and the terroir speak for themselves.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Fresh and lively, with an elegant bouquet of yellow fruit and flowers.

    Palate

    Long and finely drawn, with a discreet, salty minerality that gives a refined, harmonious character.

    Finish

    Persistent, with the minerality the last thing to fade.

    Serving & Food Pairing

    Serve at 8-10°C in a champagne glass or tulip. Contraste #1 makes a natural aperitif, but also pairs nicely with shellfish, fish and white poultry.

  • Bottle of G.D. Vajra Langhe Rosso 2022 Italian red wine
    Item no.: 22227865480-67093-0411

    G.D. Vajra was the first winery in the Barolo region to gain organic certification, as early as 1971 - a pioneering spirit that still defines the house's approach to winegrowing today.

    Expert's Description

    G.D. Vajra Langhe Rosso 2022 is a Red Wine from Langhe, Piedmont, Italy, made from a blend of Albarossa, Barbera, Dolcetto, Freisa, Nebbiolo and Pinot Noir with an alcohol content of 13%. The winery dates back to 1972, when a young Aldo Vaira took over the family farm in Barolo, and the name G.D. Vajra comes from father Giuseppe Domenico's initials combined with the older spelling of the family name. The Langhe Rosso category gives the house's winemakers freedom to blend several of the region's classic grape varieties into one accessible, versatile cuvée that reflects the breadth of the Langhe district's grape material.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Red berries, cherry and a hint of spice on the nose.

    Palate

    Fresh and fruit-driven on the palate with soft tannins and good structure.

  • Bottle of Champagne from Château de l'Auche with golden label
    Item no.: 059763-615-256

    The same cooperative in Janvry, west of Reims, is behind this Sélection - but the mood here differs from the rosé. Golden in the glass, with a fine, persistent stream of bubbles and a maturity that comes from years spent in the cellar.

    Expert's Description

    Ch. de l'Auche Sélection Brut is a Sparkling Wine from Champagne, France made from 85% Pinot Meunier and 15% Pinot Noir, bottled at 12% ABV.

    The cuvée is built on around 60% of the current vintage, supplemented with reserve wines from the previous three years, all given time to mature in the house's cellars. That gives a Champagne with immediate freshness from the youngest wines and depth and complexity from the older ones - two layers meeting in the same glass. The dosage sits at the fuller end of the Brut category, giving a round, generous style.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Open and aromatic, with generous, juicy aromas of pear and apricot.

    Palate

    Full and pleasant at first, before the Champagne takes on a broader, rounder dimension - big vinosity, yet still light on the tongue.

    Finish

    Complex, with an interplay between young, fresh tones and the more mature nuances from the reserve wines.

    Serving & Food Pairing

    Serve at 8-10°C in a champagne glass or tulip. Sélection Brut works well as an aperitif, but also has enough body to accompany a main course of white meat or fish in sauce.

  • Bottle of rosé Champagne from Château de l'Auche with label
    Item no.: 059763-615-255

    In the village of Janvry, half an hour's drive west of Reims, 60 growers work together to farm the grapes that become Ch. de l'Auche. It's not a single château with one plot, but a cooperative - and this rosé is one of the house's best-known styles.

    Expert's Description

    Ch. de l'Auche Rosé Brut is a Sparkling Wine from Champagne, France made from 75% Pinot Meunier and 25% Pinot Noir, bottled at 12.5% ABV.

    Château de l'Auche farms 115 hectares across 40 plots around Janvry, several of which are classified Premier Cru. For this rosé, a portion of the Pinot Noir is vinified as red wine and blended into the cuvée - the classic assemblage method. After the second fermentation in bottle, the wine rests on its lees for 2.5 years, and following disgorgement it rests a further 6 months before release.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Strawberry and cherry, alongside a biscuity aroma that after a few minutes in the glass recalls the pink biscuits of Reims.

    Palate

    Round and harmonious, with concentrated red fruit supported by good structure and an energetic mousse.

    Finish

    The fruit lingers long, soft and well rounded.

    Serving & Food Pairing

    Serve at 8-10°C in a champagne glass or tulip. The rosé pairs well with light starters, shellfish and strawberries for dessert - or enjoy it as an aperitif.

  • Bottle of South African white wine from MAN Family Wines with pale label
    Item no.: 059763-615-190

    It all started in a tractor shed in Stellenbosch, where José Conde and brothers Tyrrel and Philip Myburgh made their first 600 cases of wine in 2001. They named the project MAN - after their wives Marie, Anette and Nicky. Today Chenin Blanc makes up around a quarter of production.

    Expert's Description

    MAN Family Wines Chenin Blanc is a White Wine from the Coastal Region of South Africa made from the Chenin Blanc grape, bottled at 13.5% ABV.

    The wine comes from the Agter-Paarl area, known for its rolling hills and deep shale soils in a Mediterranean-like climate. The vines are farmed sustainably and mostly dry-farmed, which tends to give grapes with more concentrated flavour. Since starting out in 2001, MAN has grown from 600 to over 200,000 cases a year and is now exported to more than 30 countries - but Chenin Blanc has remained a core focus throughout.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Quince, pear and pineapple, with a pale straw glow.

    Palate

    Fresh stone fruit and apple, carried by bright, taut acidity and a touch of minerality.

    Finish

    Item no.: 22227865479-1106-197280478

    The name 11th Hour Cellars refers to a philosophy of waiting until the very last moment with the crucial decisions - when to harvest the grapes, how long fermentation should run, and how long the wine should age in barrel - to bring out as much fruit as possible in the glass.

    Item no.: 222276865480-67093-0315

    La Folie means "the madness" - a fitting name for a pet-nat, where the grape juice is left to keep fermenting straight in the bottle, with little control over exactly how the bubbles turn out.

    Pet-nat, short for pétillant naturel, is an old method where the wine is bottled while still fermenting, so the carbon dioxide is captured naturally without added sugar or yeast. This edition is made without added sulphur and may therefore appear slightly hazy, with the odd natural tartrate crystal at the bottom.

    Fresh apple, pear and citrus with light floral and yeasty notes.
