Crisp and crunchy, but softened by a hint of nuttiness - as clean as my conscience.
Crisp and dry
Domaine Wachau Gruner Veltliner - Austria	3.40	18.95
Mountain crisp, wonderfully refreshing and increasingly popular. If this doesn't bring back memories of those apré ski moments, nothing will..
Le Chant Des Fleurs Sauvignon Blanc - France	3.20	17.95
This Loire Sauvignon is a really classy offering. Bright and aromatic fruit prepares the way for the crisp, mouthwatering gooseberry flavours. Clean and refreshing.
Domaine Hubert Brochard Sancerre 2006 - France		26.95

Domaine de Landreau Muscadet Sur Lie 2005 - France		16.95

Henri Ehrhart Muscat d'Alsace Reserve 2005 - France		17.95
This has lovely honeysuckle and peaches on the nose with great weight and flavour in the mouth. Truly deserves to be a favourite.
Mas Du Libian Viognier 2006 Coteaux de L'Ardeche - Rhone		23.95
Honeyed, opulent, aromatic and floral. Luscious 'white peachy' fruit with white pepper overtones lead to an unexpectedly mineral finish.

Fruity and aromatic
Allan Scott Sauvignon Blanc - Marlborough, New Zealand		25.95
Lip-smacking 'lemon and lime' with gooseberry and kiwi-fruit overtones. Allan holds his Sauvignon back a little to develop depth and complexity. A kiwi classic.
Lurton Pinot Gris - Argentina		21.00
Not the run of the mill Pinot this one. Delicious flavours of peach, apricot and raisins. Try it, we think you'll love it.
Monteflores Chardonnay/Torrontes - Argentina	2.70	14.95
If you like it a bit sweeter you'll love this one. With Muscat-like aromas and the roundness of Chardonnay, this is a brilliant quaffing wine at a great price.

Meaning spicy grape, this has a simple sweetness to it that means it can cope with your dinner - assuming you can pronounce it.
Chateau Gaudrelle Vouvray 2005 - Loire France		23.95
Made with just the right amount of residual sugar to balance out the racy acidity of the Chenin Blanc grape.
Dr. Burklin-Wolf Riesling 2005 - Germany		25.95

Rich and full

A soft buttery Chardonnay that's mellow enough to be hoofed down or supped elegantly, depending on your mood.
Remi Rollin Pernard-Vergelesses 2005 - Burgandy France		36.95
A stunning white Burgundy with a ripe almondy nose then plenty of peach and lemon flavours. A truly lovely wine.
Robertson Chenin Blanc - South Africa	2.50	13.95
One step up from dry, but it never gets cloying - fish leap at the chance to be consumed by its side.
Les Burdines Macon Villages - France		18.95
This is a serious white Burgundy with refreshing lemon fruit flavours cut through by a complex mineralic streak, with a deliciously long finish.
Emile Petit Chablis - France		27.95
Old style Chablis with pronounced buttery characteristics and lots of vanilla oak.
Pink stuff

Fizzy stuff

A velvet smooth, classic Rioja with bags of blackberries, raspberries and vanilla..

Warm and spicy

Lovely easy drinking from an often difficult grape.
J and F Lurton, Fitou Cuvee des Ardoises - France		22.95
A rich, spicy red with elegant tannins and a long finish. There's a bit more weight to this one than the average Fitou.
Aresti Cabernet Sauvignon - Chile	2.70	14.95
A substantial Cabernet with a rich, ripe fruit character. It's a real friend of anything that's wandered in off the green pastures for an appointment with the fiery Mr Grill.

Minervois fired from an Old World French cannon - this is a dark, deep garnet-red wine with good structure, power and concentration.
Crozes Hermitage Cave de Clairmonts - Rhone, France		24.95
With a lovely deep purple colour, this appealing wine has obvious blackberry fruit with good depth and rounded tannins. Spicy on the finish .

Legendary Lebanese estate that has a 6,000 year old wine producing history started by the Phoenicians. Ripe, spicy fruit with lashings of leather.

A rich dark-baked Christmas cake of a wine with a nose of sun-dried raisins. Sublime, my absolute favourite.
Amarone della Valpolicella 2002 - Italy		40.00
