Glasfryn - Whites
| Dry house | 125 ml | Bottle |
|---|---|---|
| Marche Bianco, Italy | 2.70 | 14.75 |
| A crisp, clean, apple-fresh Italian with great body. | ||
| Medium House | ||
| Cave de Masse, France | 2.70 | 14.75 |
| An easy drinking medium white that slips down a treat. | ||
| Crisp, dry and refreshing | ||
| Cruzan, Colombard and Sauvignon Blanc, France | 16.25 | |
| These two popular grapes have produced a vibrant, fruity, moreish wine that demands a second bottle. | ||
| Nuevo Extremo Chardonnay, Chile | 17.95 | |
| Extraordinary, un-oaked quality from Chile - one of our best finds this year. | ||
| Le Poesie, Pinot Grigio, Italy | 3.20 | 17.95 |
| A classic style Pinot, crisp and fairly dry with a finish that is full and flavoursome. What I tend to do is have one more sip immediately. | ||
| Verdicchio, Ruviano, Italy | 3.40 | 19.95 |
| The next step up in taste, finesse and style from the ever popular Pinot Grigio grape. The Verdicchio grape provides amazing flavours, depth and finish. If you fancy trying something new today, try this, I am sure you will not be disappointed. | ||
| Les Carisannes, Sauvignon Blanc, France | 3.40 | 20.50 |
| Produced by the famous Brochard winemaking family this is often called a 'baby Sancerre' as the vineyard is is on the outskirts of the apellation. The similarities are endless, crisp, clean with fabulous citrus fruits, generally excellent all round. | ||
| Domaine de la Jousseliniere, Muscadet sur lie, France | 21.95 | |
| A blast from the past - but this is groovy wine that deserves to be re-discovered. Like flares, for instance, or hot pants. | ||
| Macon-Peronne, Domain du Bicheron, France | 25.95 | |
| A French masterclass in winewaking from the heart of Bourgogne. This is a serious wine for real white wine lovers. It has citrus undertone that cuts through with a mineralic streak with a deliciously strong, long finish. . | ||
| Clean but rounded | ||
| Omaka Springs Estate, Sauvignon Blanc, New Zealand | 26.95 | |
| If you are wanting a great Kiwi Sauvignon you have just found one. All the usual charecteristics in copius amounts, gooseberries, tropical fruits with a subtle hint of green apples and grass to finish. A must for any Kiwi wine lover. . | ||
| Stormy Cape Chenin Blanc, South Africa | 3.20 | 17.95 |
| One step up from dry - but it never gets cloying. Luscious is the word. | ||
| Pouilly Fumé Jean Pabiot, Loire, France | 33.00 | |
| Oh this is good, with everything you've ever wanted from Pouilly Fumé: smokey, grassy, flinty asparagus with a hint of lime. A beautifully poised, elegant wine. | ||
| Rich and full | ||
| Coldridge Estate Chardonnay, South Eastern Australia | 3.20 | 17.95 |
| Larger than life and well oaked with delicious butterscotch flavours and more fruit than the man from Delmonte. | ||
| Margan Vineyards Chardonnay, Hunter Valley, Australia | 29.95 | |
| A rich, bold, boutique Chardy with a full-powered attack. Weighty, with concentrated fruits in the mid-palate and a touch of lemony zing. Every time I open a bottle, I could swear it cries for roast chicken. | ||
| Emil Petit, Chablis, France | 29.95 | |
| Old style Chablis from a highly reputable winemaker. With pronounced buttery charecteristics and a hint vanilla oak. | ||
| Chateau de Jurque, Fantaisie, Jurancon Sec, France | 29.95 | |
| There are not enough superlatives to describe this top end wine from the south of France. Beautifully amazing. Definitely one from Adam's cellar. | ||
| Château Lamothe de Haux, Bordeaux | 21.95 | |
| This wine is a poke in the eye to anyone silly enough to think Bordeaux only makes good reds. This displays exellent quality fruit, a soft lanolin texture and fresh finish. A nice change from Sancerre. | ||
| Fruity and aromatic | ||
| Rueda Analivia Verdejo Pagos del Rey, Rueda, Spain | 21.95 | |
| A mouth-watering find from Spain with tropical fruits that don't cloy, with honeydew melon on the finish. | ||
| Niersteiner Gutes Domtal, Germany | 3.10 | 17.50 |
| Ok so the name is a bit of a mouthful, the wine is a deliciously light, fruity, sweet number that drinks superbly. | ||
| Ceps Du Sud Viognier, France | 18.95 | |
| A great example of this succulent grape variety that thrives under the Mediterranean sun. Apricots on buttered toast with a touch of almond. Strange but tasty. | ||
| Torrontes, Etchart Privado, Argentina | 18.95 | |
| The Torrentes grape has delicate soft fruit aromas with a beautiful palate backed up by plenty of body. The peach and orange flavours will keep enticing you back for one more sip. | ||
| Moscato D'Asti, Italy | 22.95 | |
| The problem with this wine is that it is too easy to drink, and that is the only problem. It has a slight fizz to it that helps it slip down amazingly quickly. Buy two bottles the first will last 5 minutes. | ||
| Sparkling wine and champagne | ||
| Château de Montgueret, Rose, Saumur, Loire, France | 29.95 | |
| This extremely elegant, well balanced pink little thirst quencher will get your toes tingling on those endless summer nights. | ||
| Camille Savés, Premier Cru Champagne, France | 39.95 | |
| What a find this was, Premier Cru Champagne from the Bouzy (great word) region. Unusually for Champagne they grow their own grapes as well as making the wine. | ||
| Veuve Cliquot Yellow Label Brut, France | 49.95 | |
| Fruit, finesse, style - a rich and dry Grand Marque. | ||
| Mumm, Cordon Rouge, France | 43.95 | |
| Celebrating?Yes, this is the fizz for Formula 1, good enough for me. | ||
| Villa Domiziano Prosecco, Italy | 19.95 | |
| A lightly spakling and fruity wine, great fun for any time. | ||
| Pudding wines | ||
| Tokaji Aszu, Hungary (37.5cl) | 19.95 | |
| A bit different this one-toasted fruit marmalade with just enough spice to keep the wolf from the door. . | ||
| D'arenberg Mclaren Vale, vintage fortified Shiraz, Australia (37.5cl) | 19.95 | |
| A rich porty wine and not surprisingly, it can handle cheese.The perfect way to end a meal. |
Glasfryn - Reds
| House Red | 125 ml | Bottle |
|---|---|---|
| Montepulciano d'Abruzzo, Italy | 2.70 | 14.75 |
| A soft, fruity, easy drinking Italian red. | ||
| Light and fruity | ||
| Rare Vineyards, Pinot Noir, France | 3.40 | 19.75 |
| A beautiful French Pinot Noir which leads on to a full, yet silkily smooth taste on the palatewith a defining finish. A very popular choice. | ||
| La Scala, Valpolicella, Italy | 3.30 | 19.75 |
| Good grippy tannins and plummy fruits in this cheeky Italian. It's great with starters, main courses, breakfast. | ||
| Chianti, Colli Senesi, Italy | 28.95 | |
| This wine sends you to an idyllic place of rolling mountains standing tall above the northern lakes of Italy. A superb nose is followed by fantastic deep red fruits, very smooth on the palate with an exceedingly good depth of finish. | ||
| Chateau de Raousset, Fleurie, France | 32.95 | |
| Where to start.its amazing! Its light, fruity,floral,smooth, slightly oaky with a bold finish that accompanies cheese or lamb amazingly well. I hope its not just me that adores this wine. | ||
| Warm and spicy | ||
| Las Montañas, Merlot, Chile | 3.20 | 17.95 |
| This is a fantastic country for growing Merlot grapes and this is certainly an excellent example of what Chile can produce. This is a soft red with smooth berry flavours with a touch of spice about it. Just as good without food. | ||
| Peter Lehman Barossa Shiraz, Australia | 3.40 | 19.95 |
| From the hot vine heartland of Barossa, this is typically creamy with dense fruit, warm spiciness, and a pinch of sage, all lovingly wrapped up in an oak parcel. | ||
| Les Grandes Serres, Cotes du Rhone, France | 20.95 | |
| A meaty, full bodied wine with dark fruit flavours from the Grenache and Mouvedre grapes; nevertheless, this is never cloying or jammy, but remains clean on the palate . | ||
| Santa Rosa, Malbec, Argentina | 3.40 | 19.95 |
| This high altitude beauty is a superb find. A deep, intense colour invites you to taste a sublime combination of red fruits and spices. Sounds like a beast, but it is deceptively rounded with soft tannins. | ||
| Pena de Pato, Dâo, Portugal | 3.50 | 20.95 |
| Vibrant, full-bodied, and delicious. Possibly the best Portugese wine we have tasted. Trust me, give it a go. | ||
| Smooth and earthy | ||
| Bodegas Lar de Lares Reserva, Tempranillo, Spain | 24.95 | |
| A velvet smooth classic Spanish red with bags of noble oak, spices and vanilla. As sophisticated as that little black cocktail dress yet as warm and comfy as an old pair of slippers. | ||
| Solese, Cabernet Franc, Italy | 21.95 | |
| A bit of an oddity this one. Typically crunchy and leafy Cabernet Franc, but layered with soft fruits and bergamot (as in Earl Grey), softened with a touch of barrel ageing. Definately, definately worth a punt. | ||
| Los Vilos Cabernet Sauvignon, Chile | 3.10 | 16.95 |
| A substantial Cabernet with a rich, ripe fruit character - it's a real friend of anything thats wandered in off the green pastures for an appointment with the fiery Mr Grill. | ||
| Arium, Tempranillo Crianza, Spain | 3.40 | 19.95 |
| A typically smooth, full bodied Spanish wine, which has spent a suitable amount of time in barrel to produce the unique flavours only Spain can produce. We like to call it our 'baby Rioja'. | ||
| Purisima Estate Merlot, Chile | 21.00 | |
| Merlot in full cry - soft and smooth, with rich, soft tannins and a long finish - it does things to your taste buds that would be considered ever so slightly rude in some countries. | ||
| Pomerol, Christian Moueix, Bordeaux | 35.00 | |
| Long in the mouth, developing dark fleshy plum and coffee flavours. A class act from the man who makes the legendary Chateau Petrus. | ||
| Vougeot 1er cru, 'Les Cras' Domaine De La Vougeraie, Burgundy, France | 60.00 | |
| There is only a limited amount of this top notch Burgundy produced each year. With an exceptional balance of fruit, acidity and silky tannins it tap dances on your tongue like Fred Astaire. | ||
| Rich and plummy | ||
| Stonehedge, Zinfandel, USA | 22.95 | |
| With ripe dark fruits on the nose and 6.5 litre-V12 Hummer powered flavours on the palate. | ||
| Lecho de Piedra, Rioja Crianza, Spain | 22.50 | |
| A typical rich yet silky mouth feel, matched with a dark fruit character that stampedes on your palate like a raging bull. | ||
| Chateau Les Amoureuses, Cotes du Rhone, France | 28.95 | |
| A ripe, black cherry and almond bouquet is kept in check by spicy black peppercorns. This wonderful wine draws one back to the glass time and time again. | ||
| Zenato 'Ripassa' Valpolicella, Veneto, Italy | 34.00 | |
| A great big Christmas cake of a wine, with rich, dark fruit and a marzipan nose. | ||
| Amarone Della Valpolicella, Rugola, Veneto, Italy | 46.00 | |
| A dark brooding Italian grandfather of a wine. Hints of chocolate, raisins, cherries, liquorice, tar and leather can be found if the palate is willing. Almost sweetish in taste and wonderful with cheese. | ||
| Rosé | ||
| Chateau la Gravette, Minervois, France | 3.25 | 17.95 |
| A dryer rosé. Think of endless sunny days, the smell of freshly cut meadows and the taste of juicy ripe fruits and you're just about there. | ||
| Marchesini, Pinot Grigio Rose, Italy | 3.25 | 17.95 |
| Ripe summer flavours of peach and strawberry abound in this medium dry rose. Perfect for the terrace on a warm, sunny evening. | ||
| Vendange, White Zinfandel, California | 3.25 | 17.95 |
| The perfect wine for the summer!!This delicate wine has hints of strawberries with a lovely sweet finish. |
