47 AD Prosecco Frizzante DOC NV
£11.95Add to cartWith so much mass produced Prosecco out there it’s hard to know what one to choose. We continue to champion and import this modern Prosecco from 47 Anno Domini. We colloquially call this ‘Blackboard’ Prosecco.
As a Frizzante it is delicately sparkling with citrus, pear and floral aromas which flow to the palate. You will notice its closure uses the traditional ‘tappo spago’, the cork closure with string; this symbolises their connection to time-honoured methods once used with sparkling wines from Veneto.

Bondar Wines, ‘Violet Hour’ Shiraz, 2014
£20.95Add to cartWhat’s in the name:
“This is the violet hour, the hour of hush and wonder, when the affectations grow again and valor is reborn, when the shadows deepen magically along the edge of the forest and we believe that, if we watch carefully, at ant moment we may see the unicorn.” – Bernard DeVoto, “The Hour”.
How about the wine:
Hand-picked fruit from 65+ year old vines planted on Andre Bondar’s Rayner Vineyard in McLaren Vale. This wine pays homage to the Bondar style with fragrance and a lightness of touch. He used a proportion of whole bunches, which helps to create that lightness, and adds dimensions of flavour and a silky mouth feel. Aged in mostly older French oak, Violet Hour should improve nicely over the next five years or so and will suit lighter meat dishes and pasta beautifully.
Suitable for vegans!

Bondar Wines, Adelaide Hills, Chardonnay, 2016
£20.95Add to cartSourced from a single-vineyard at 400m above sea level in the cool Echunga area, this wine was hand-picked and pressed straight to barrel, where it underwent a natural fermentation. Matured in four barrels (one new, three older French oak) for about nine months. Very similar to the 2014 with a slightly purer fruit profile. We recommend you open it and let it breathe, sit back and watch it settle into its own skin and sing. It’s a wine that will age beautifully over the next few years.
90 dozen bottles made.
Read Mike Bennie’s review from MBM Magazine (94 points):
“Bondar are out of the blocks and racing. Great release of a lean and fine expression of Chardonnay here. It smells of wet slate, oyster shell, faint nuttiness then the pure, ripe stone fruit expression chimes in. Slinky yet crisp fringed in texture, the wine remains crisp and tight through its needle thrust line. Get involved.”

Bondar, Rayner Vineyard Grenache 2016
£26.75Add to cartSourced from Bondar’s tiny 0.7ha block of 48-year old Grenache vines, planted in sand on the Rayner Vineyard in McLaren Vale. The lowest-yielding vines were hand-picked, and natural fermentation took place – some in a ceramic egg on skins for 120 days, some with whole bunches and some with whole berries. All done to add layers of complexity to the wine, and to build structure around the beautifully aromatic and pure Grenache fruit.
The 2016 weaves together precisely these delicious characters, a core of textured, concentrated fruit and a spine of powdery tannins that energize the palate from start to finish.
This wine brings together Grenache (80%), Shiraz (15%) and Mataro (5%). Picked by hand, gently handled in the winery and aged in old French oak.
The wine is bright and lifted with the aromatics of raspberries with fresh herbal notes. Complexity comes through with spice and gaminess from the Mataro, the Shiraz bringing structure and plush fruit to the palate.
This is savoury, with fine tannins and still manages to leave an imprint.
Suitable for vegans!

Bungee, Sauvignon Blanc, 2018
£10.95Add to cartBungee Sauvignon Blanc is born and bred in New Zealand's famous Marlborough region. It is estate grown and bottled in the Wairau Valley. Back in 1986 when the wine world was just discovering NZ Sauvignon, New Zealand's wine writer Bob Campbell MW famously described the style as “a bungee jump into a gooseberry bush”. Around the same time, NZ also introduced the world to Bungee. The zippy, pure passion fruit flavours of Bungee slap you in the face and captures the life-affirming experience of this special place.
The Bungee Sauvignon Blanc has a silky rounded palate, with citrus and stone fruit characters complimenting the tropical and floral notes on the nose. The palate is wonderfully expressive, with tropical fruits notes entwined with mouth-watering citrus hints and mineral acidity.
The Estate grown grapes were picked over several perfect cold Marlborough mornings, helping capture and retain the concentrated flavour and aromatics of the grapes. After gentle pressing, the juice was cool fermented in stainless steel tanks using multiple cultured yeasts, prior to blending and bottling.

Cantina il Passo, “Alberi in Piano”, Aglianico del Vulture DOC, 2013
£29.50Add to cartThe origin of the family-run farm dates back to the end of the 19th century, which was also known as “Contrada Alberi in Piano”, with many hectares of land near Rapolla, a small village in the province of Potenza, located in Lucania at the slopes of Vulture.
The Aglianico of Vulture has very remote origins, and people thinks it has been brought by the Greeks in the south of Italy between the VII and the VI century B.C. One of the historical and literary evidences of the history of this wine variety is the one left by Quintus Horatius Flaccus, a Latin poet who was born in Venosa, who exalted the beauty of his land (Basilicata) and of its wine.
Appearance
Intense ruby red with violet hues.
Nose
Ripe red fruit, note of tobacco, cocoa and vanilla.
Palate
This is a big wine and we recommend decanting. It's received 18 months in French oak barrels and a further 6 months in the bottle. Bramble fruit with sweet spices present tannin that has soften with age.
