A selection of wines is available for those interested in exploring new wines. Each set is organized around a theme; some focus on different styles of the same varietal, some are based on geographic regions, and others are grouped by style. If a specific group appeals to you or if you already enjoy one of the wines in a set, give it a try.
One of the most diversely used white grapes out there. It can make sparkling wines, sticky sweet dessert wines through to Smokey complex dry whites (and that’s just in the Loire Valley!). Here are some wonderful, though less extreme, examples.
Déniché, AOP Vouvray 13%abv
Chenin Blanc
France (Loire)
(Vegetarian, Vegan)
First up a Classic off dry Vouvray form the Loire Vally. Good for before, during or after dinner. Soft, moreish and delicious.
La Lisse Soie d’Ivoire Chenin Blanc 13%abv
Chenin Blanc
France (Aude)
(Vegetarian, Vegan, Sustainable)
Gently citrussy and herbal aromas lead to a densely fruity, peachy palate with great texture and a clean, lifted finish.
Wildeberg Terroirs Chenin Blanc 13abv%
Chenin Blanc
South Africa (Paarl)
(Vegetarian, Vegan, Sustainable)
A broad, savoury, complex nose with ripe stonefruit and citrus, aromas of straw, saffron and baked earth. Generous and textural with apricot, green plum and grapefruit, the richness of fruit balanced by tangy freshness and a taut, mineral seam on the long, focused finish.
