Highlights from our list of 35.

WHITE

CHABLIS, Domaine Prieuré St Côme, Burgundy, 2007
Racy mouth-watering tropical fruits and natural minerality

CHASSANGNE-MONTRACHET, 1er Cru, J-N Gagnard, 2004
A great profound Chassagne, excellent structure and the 'fat' of the vintage. Superb richness with the cool, deep and complex minerality

PINOT BLANC, Leon Beyer, Alsace, France, 2006
Elegant with a hint of spice, well-rounded yet delicate, which is fresh and soft

ANDES PEAK, Reserve Chardonnay, Casablanca, Chile
Soft and rounded with white peach, baked citrus and a lick of cream

RED

CHATEAU TEYSSIER, Grand Cru, St Emilion, Bordeaux
Opulent, rich, ripe berries. Silky texture with a slightly spicy herb finish

PALLISTER ESTATE, PINOT NOIR, Martinborough
One of New Zealand's top producers, this is ripe intense red and dark berry fruit aromas and subtle oak finish, drinking well on release but has the concentration to be cellared for a year or three

KAAPZICHT BIN3, Merlot/Cabernet Sauvignon, Stellenbosch
Sweet, ripe spiced plum, red berry fruits brushed with oak vanilla

HEITZ CELLAR, Nappa Valley, California
Aromas of fresh berries, hints of spice and soft vanilla, the right balance of soft tannins and acidity to create a smooth finish

GOBILLARD Rose

VEUVE CLICQUOT Brut

BOLLINGER Special Cuvee
