Treat your palate

Do you dream of the finer things in life? Then it's time to try Chateau Caronne Ste Gemme's 2015 vintage. A bold Bordeaux wine, full of cassis flavours - punching well above its weight. Bordeaux wines are at their best enjoyed with food and this blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot with just a touch of Petit Verdot makes for a great accompaniment to roast beef. Good food with good wine!
Prices going up but Klippenkop stays the same
Posted by Ilona Roberts on
Bringing some much needed sunshine from South Africa, Klippenkop 2021, £6.99 is packed with flavours of pineapple, melon and apple. The Chenin Blanc grapes, from the Robertson Valley, are planted on the riverbanks in rows to utilize the prevailing sea breezes - at least they don't need to survive our stormy winds!Beat the storms and taste the sunshine.
Glass of Port with chocolate torte?
Posted by Ilona Roberts on
Port has been in existence since the 15th centuryand we still love it! This Portuguese fortified wine comes in a variety of styles. Ruby Port is fruity and juicy whilst Tawny Port is paler, the colour of walnuts, and has a nutty flavour from oak ageing. Traditionally served with cheese at the end of a meal, but why not try something different? Ruby Port with chocolate cake can be the perfect pairing or serve White Port as an aperitif or with tonic as a summer drink. Which one will you choose?
