Wines
Gosset, Celebris, Extra Brut, Champagne, France 2002
An impressive evolved nose with hints of mushroom and bonfire. Elegant, with plenty of life but showing tertiary characters, such as truffle, yet balanced by crisp acidity; it lingers delicately.
Laurent-Perrier, Cuvée Rosé Brut, Champagne, France NV
Lively bubbles with loads of red berries, like a dancer on the tongue, exquisite, elegant and graceful.
Perrier-Jouët, Grand Brut, Champagne, Champagne, France NV
Rich, dried stone fruits aromas, smoky and toasty with mocha notes. Depth and concentrated on the palate with a creamy texture and butterscotch and light bakery flavours. Lively with an enduring finish.
Bisol, Salis dry, Prosecco di Conegliano Valdobbiadene Superiore, Veneto, Italy 2014
Subtle and simple, fresh fruit is abundant on the creamy, textural palate. Medium dry and balanced to perfection - a wonderful example of fine Prosecco.
Chandon, Brut Rosé, Ningxia, China NV
Fresh strawberry and rasberry fruit on the nose, elegant and round, with a floral, clean finish. A good match with fruit-based desserts.
Carpenè Malvolti, 1868 Extra Dry, Prosecco di Conegliano Valdobbiadene Superiore, Veneto, Italy NV
Clean, grassy, mineral nose with flowery notes, opening up to Asian pear. Dry and crisp, salty palate balancing tropical fruit flavours. A good finish.
