La Vrille Et Le Papillon ‘Fée Bulleuse’ 2022 – Copper-blush pét-nat of Grenache Noir. Tart red strawberry and crunchy russet apple bound with a beautifully racy acidity – only 600 bottles made!

Celler Comalats ‘Marquesa’ 2023 – A quenching maceration of Picapoll from Catalunya that fits the easy-drinking, accessible end of the orange wine spectrum with aplomb. Think peachy stone fruits, ripe melon and confected pear drops – it’s a bottle that never lasts long. 

Fabio Ferrecane ‘Guanciabianca’ 2022 – Sicilian Catarratto which glows golden in the glass from a gentle, brief skin maceration. Sharp edged and linear with that unmistakable Sicilian saltiness and wonderful leesy complexity. 

Mikaël Bouges ‘Water L’eau’ 2022 - Restrained, nuanced Menu Pineau showing a delicate balance of pear, citrus and green melon, softened by a subtle touch of barrel influence. Subtle and delicate. 

Val De Combrès ‘Traquenard’ 2023 – Rhône Syrah giving all things blackcurrant fruit, olive and peppercorn. A wine that both leaps from the glass and explodes on the palate, giving a salty bite of tapenade in the finish

Noëlla Morantin ‘Momu’ 2020 – Glossy, sumptuous Cabernet Franc with textbook aromatics bright red berries, charred capsicum and ground coffee.
