Low sulphite Whites Case of 6

Here we've selected 6 different top quality white wines, all low in sulphites and made by family owned wineries. They're also all delicious wines! We've opted to keep to a similar style of crisp dry whites rather than mix in a heavier fuller wine like a Chardonnay. Don't be afraid to try the wonderful Pizzorno from Uruguay - it's a boutique vineyard where everything is done by hand, and puts many of the bigger, wealthier producers to shame! Please give them a try - you won't be disappointed.

Low sulphite Mixed Case of 6

6 delicious bottles all low in sulphites. It's difficult to find a low sulphite rose but this Sera Lori is superb. The Pongracz sparkling Rose is frankly wonderful - Laurent Perrier Rose without the price tag. It's severely limited though, and we've bought most of the UK allocation so be quick. Once you've tasted it you'll be back for more!

Robertson Number One Constitution Road Shiraz 2006

John Platter 4.5 Stars. Decanter - Trophy for Best South African Rhone varietal over £10

14.5% abv. This is the flagship wine from this highly successful winery. Although it's now grown to be South Africa's third largest producer, this is because it's grower owned with a firm focus on producing quality wines at affordable prices. Platter describes this wine as 'Rich, powerful and alluring. Layers of ripe red berries, vanilla and cinnamon, sheathed in svelte harmonious fruit, and oak tannins (34 months in French and American oak). Bold, structured and poised'. I was tipped off about this wine by a colleague who was involved with the winery, and bought some on his recommendation. I'll be adding my tasting notes shortly although I can never be as clear and concise as Platter!

Took a bottle to Carlo's restaurant to pair it with a Welsh Black Tbone. It's fantastic. Big juicy fruit with a mouthfeel like velvet, silky smooth, lively acidity making it ideal with food. Great length too. Like a South African Amarone! This is a cracker!

Eral Bravo Malbec 2006 75cl

As Eral Bravo Malbec 2007 has just been featured in Decanter we're receiving some enquiries for it. As far as we know there is none in the UK as there's been major turmoil at Buenos Airies and virtually no wine has left Argentina for three months. The good news is though, there's some on it's way docking on June 11th which should be available once it's cleared customs around the 18th. There's only 600 bottles though. If you'd like to reserve some please drop us an email or phone call. Below we have the very last of the 06 - just 36 bottles remaining. Vintage generally makes very little difference in Argentina as the weather is consistently good every year. Also we have Eral Bravo's premium wine - the sensational YBS, as usual at the best prices in the UK. Give it a try, it's something special.

14.5%abv. A big, fruity powerful Malbec with well balanced tannins and a long finish, from one of Argentina's best producers. We recently had a bottle at a friend's house after starting with a glass of Masi Campofiorin. The Malbec blew it away on flavour and length, and when we went back to the Masi we couldn't drink it! This is a very good wine and highly recommended. If you're a fan of the Susanna Balbo Malbec you should try a bottle of this wine too!

90 Points by Wine Advocate for this vintage, 2006, with 2004 winner Best Australian Red - Singapore International Wine Challenge.The 2005 was awarded 90 points Robert Parker.

14.5% abv. 2006 now has a cork closure, not screwcap. Produced from low yielding 70 year old vines from the two best of Claymore's own vineyards in the Clare Valley, with a minimal amount of additional fruit from other premier vignerons. A big powerful full flavoured Shiraz. Full bodied, smooth and rounded. Not overly 'peppered' as some can be. Aged in French oak for 18 months prior to release. Great length. What a great wine for a dinner party from this bespoke winemaker. Production is limited to just a few thousand cases per year. One of my favourites.

Exclusive to us in the UK and very limited.

Silver Medal - Decanter World Wine Awards - Best Bordeaux Blend over £10 for 2005, 2006 and 2007! 4.5 stars Michael Cooper Wine Guide 2006

This wine is a product of Morton Estate's dedicated vineyard planting programme, matching individual grape varieties to their ideal terroir. A blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc matured separately in both French and American oak then blended to produce this supreme wine. Delicious fruit enhanced by a fine tannic structure to produce a wine of elegance and complexity. This wine is superb and has won a silver medal at the Decanter Wine Awards for Best Worldwide Bordeaux Blend over £10 for the last three consecutive years.

Claymore 'Nirvana' Reserve Shiraz Clare Valley 2006 75cl

15.5% abv. This is Claymore's ultra premium wine. 100% Shiraz from Claymore's Penwortham vineyard at altitude. This is a big, powerful, savoury Shiraz full of complex flavours of dark chocolate and black fruits. Well balanced with good body added from 24 months in French oak, with a 'velvet' mouth feel. This is a big wine and needs 20 minutes breathing or decanting to open up to be fully appreciated. Intense fruit flavours with vanilla on the really long finish. Can be savoured on it's own but I thoroughly enjoyed it with a Chinese banquet. Superb wine, but very limited. We are the UK's only importer and we only have a very small quantity available. It really is worth splashing out a little extra and trying a bottle as a treat.

Exclusive to us in the UK and severely limited.

Morton Estates The Mercure Bordeaux Blend 2007 75cl

Mercedes Benz Hawke's Bay Wine Awards 2009 Bronze Medal.

A blend of predominantly Merlot with Cabernet Sauvignon and Malbec. Plenty of ripe fruit aged in both American and French oak, with a hint of pepper and soft tannins. Drinking well. Pair with red meats. I find myself drinking a lot of this one at the moment. Soft, smooth, very easy drinking. Not a big complex wine but ideal when you want something good which can be opened and consumed straight away, without breaking the bank.

Unfortunately John Platter has this wine marked as 'untasted' in his 2010 guide. It's a real shame he missed this one as I believe it would have been awarded at least 4 Stars!

14% abv. 100% Pinotage, hand harvested fermented in new French oak, then subsequently aged in second use French oak for a further nine months. Bright cherry in colour with aromas of coffee, chocolate and spice. Cherry flavours with sweet tannins and some vanilla from the oak. Delicious.

Old Mutual Trophy 09 - Bronze Medal. John Platter 4 Stars

14% abv. 95% Syrah with a tiny amount of Viognier and Mouverdre. Hand harvested from a very old and special Syrah vineyard. The Syrah and Viognier were fermented together then matured for 15 months in 85% second use French oak and 15% new American oak, then the Mouverdre added and returned to barrel for a further 4 months aging. It's a toasty warm wine with good fruit tempered by spicy pepper. Soft and velvet like in the mouth, smooth with good length. It's delicious, like a really good Chateauneuf but at a fraction of the price.

MZA Hyatt Award - Gold Medal

14% abv. 60% Cabernet Sauvignon 40% Merlot, with 6 to 8 months in French oak. We've been waiting 6 months for the release of this latest vintage. Stunning wine, it sells out so fast it's not even featured on their website. Highly recommended. Big fruit flavours, full in the mouth with an almost velvety mouth feel and a really long finish. Superbly balanced, with good acidity making it an ideal wine to enjoy with food. However I believe it's so good I just want to savour it on it's own. Jane said simply 'it's the best wine she's drunk for ages'. High praise indeed!

Morton Estates Marlborough Black Label Sauvignon Blanc 2007 75cl

Aromas of passionfruit on the nose. Fermented in stainless steel to retain freshness, this wine has a rounded palate with a little more body than their White Label. It's also a little more subtle, structured and elegant with good balancing acidity and a long finish. Due to the extra body it pairs well with seafood cooked in butter or oil such as garlic king prawns or rich fish dishes. We've just recently tried it again and it's drinking superbly, developing some complexity from the bottle age. A cheap Sauv Blanc usually needs drinking while it's young and fresh but a good quality one such as this can keep improving in bottle for several years.

Fabulous full flavours, full in the mouth, supremely balanced and very very long. This wine is aged 'sur lies' in toasted oak for seven months, hence the name. Absolutely Delicious!

Strong fruit flavours, full bodied and a long, dry finish. This wine is lovely, seeming to blend new world fruit with Italian finesse.

13%abv. This wine is actually from Uruguay wedged between Argentina and Brazil, but more importantly between 30 and 35 degrees South, the optimum latitude for grape cultivation in the Southern hemisphere. This is a superb fresh, crisp Sauvignon from a boutique family winery. Ana Laura Rodriguez handles the marketing while her husband, Carlos, oversees the daily activities in their vineyards. Virtually everything is done by hand including the picking. Ana was delighted that we were so impressed with this wine and we're equally delighted to promote it to our customers. It's delicious.

Although they are best known for their sparkling wines, they produce some great still whites as well. This Sauvignon is very floral with concentrated fruit and great depth of flavour, very well balanced acidity with a crisp finish and good length. Certain wineries in Spain are now producing some excellent whites, and this Sauvignon can hold it's head up against any, new world or old.

The wine has a crisp, dry finish leaving you wanting more. Ideal as an aperitif, for sipping in the garden or can partner certain foods such as chicken or white meats. Reminiscent of unsugared stawberries and cream!
