A bright yet pale golden coloured Picpoul. So fresh and evocative of its maritime proximity. Wafts of sea-breeze mingle with delightful notes of citrus, apple skin and herbs. Hints of peach and exotic fruits make a fleeting appearance too. The palate is caressed at first by the gentle texture but is re-energised by the telling vibrant acidity on the finale.

A handy half of Giol’s Black Label Prosecco. Shines gold in the glass, with fine, persistent bubbles carrying bright citrus and orchard-fruit aromas. Elegant, crisp and refreshingly dry, it’s a clear step up in quality that’s ideal for festive toasts, canapés – or whenever a handy half of bubbly is called for.

This Chilean Viognier which has been produced using both organic and sustainable farming methods, brilliantly shows off the aromatic qualities of the variety. Gently pressed to retain the fruit character and intense aromatics, which brings forward a fruity nose full of apricot, lychee and subtle floral notes. The palate is well-rounded and has a pleasant lingering finish.
