Wines

Glasfryn - Whites

Dry house 125 ml Bottle
Marche Bianco, Italy 2.50 13.25
A crisp, clean, apple-fresh Italian with great body.
Medium House
Côte À Côte, France 2.50 13.25
An easy drinking medium white that slips down a treat.
Crisp, dry and refreshing
Cruzan, Colombard and Sauvignon Blanc, France 2.50 13.25
These two popular grapes have produced a vibrant, fruity, moreish wine that demands a second bottle.
Nuevo Extremo Chardonnay, Chile 3.00 16.45
Extraordinary, un-oaked quality from Chile - one of our best finds this year.
Stormy Cape Chenin Blanc, South Africa 3.00 16.45
One step up from dry - but it never gets cloying. Luscious is the word.
Escale Sauvignon Blanc, France 3.10 18.45
This is at the refreshing citrus end of the Sauvignon scale - a popular zingermonger.
La Castella, Pinot Grigio, Italy 2.90 16.25
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.
Picpoul De Pinet, Domaine Sainte-Anne, Coteaux de Languedoc, France 18.45
Feisty, dry and complex - goes particulary well with anything that's got gills.
Wachau Valley, Gruner Veltliner, Austria 20.95
A superb example of fine Austrian wine. This is a very easy drinking wine that gives more every time with green apples to start and a finish of subtle melon. This grape does not get enough of the limelight - it is a must for any wino.
Mâcon-Villages, Les Burdines, France 21.45
This is a serious white Burgundy with refreshing lemon fruit flavours cut through by a complex mineralic streak, with a deliciously long finish.
Clean but rounded
Muscadet Sur Lie, Domaine de Landreau, Loire, France 16.95
Drink this and you'll know why Muscadet is so popular - it's refreshing with good weight and a hint of pepper - goodbye dreary day, hello happy night.
Devils Corner, Sauvginon Blanc, Tasmania, Australia 3.80 23.45
Top drawer Sauvignon from arguably one of the classiest cool climate producers in Australia. Dynamic on the palate, whilst remaining defiantly Loire-ish in style.
Pouilly Fumé Jean Pabiot, Loire, France 28.95
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.
Dream Bay, Sauvignon Blanc, Marlborough, New Zealand 26.95
Classic Kiwi kit, this - gooseberries and nettles, with lots of elegant tropical fruit that just keeps going and going. This is mouthwateringly moreish.
Rich and full
Coldridge Estate Chardonnay, South Eastern Australia 2.90 16.25
Larger than life and well oaked with delicious butterscotch flavours and more fruit than the man from Delmonte.
Margan Vineyards Chardonnay, Hunter Valley, Australia 27.95
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.
Chablis, Emile Petit, France 26.95
Old style Chablis with pronounced buttery characteristics and lots of vanilla oak.
Château Lamothe de Haux, Bordeaux 20.95
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
Niersteiner Gutes Domtal, Germany 2.80 15.50
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 3.10 17.95
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.
Naked Grape, Riesling, Germany 3.10 17.50
Light, fruity fun and lovely with or without food anytime of the year.
Moscato D'Asti, Dezzani, Piedmont, Italy 18.45
A Moscato from Piedmont, with a lazy prickle. Overtly floral and fragrant with hints of rosemary and sage. A sweeter wine, but deeply satisfying.
Les Logues, Saumur, Val de Loire, France 18.45
As an experience, this is similar to being run over by a train. Weighty, with spicy quince flavours, evidence of later.
Sparkling wine and champagne
Château de Montgueret, Rose, Saumur, Loire, France 27.95
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 38.95
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 45.00
Fruit, finesse, style - a rich and dry Grand Marque.
Graham Beck Brut, South Africa 25.00
Just the thing after a long day hunting gazelle - you'd swear it was Champagne.
San Simone, Prosecco, Italy 18.95
Lightly sparkled and fruity - this is fun wine 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) 18.45
A rich porty wine and not surprisingly, it can handle cheese.The perfect way to end a meal.

Glasfryn - Reds

House 125 ml Bottle
Marche Sangiovese 2.50 13.25
Soft, fruity and easy drinking Italian red wine.
Light and fruity
Alto Pampas, Pinot Noir, Chile 3.00 16.95
A lovely vegetal nose leads into a round, smooth, supple wine with good fruit and a touch of wood.
La Scala, Valpolicella, Italy 3.20 18.45
Good grippy tannins and plummy fruits in this cheeky Italian. It's great with starters, main courses, breakfast.
Beaujolais, Domaine Buis Rond, Burgundy, France 22.95
Our first organic wine and truly it does not disappoint. It is light and fruity with a nose to fall in love with and to finish to die for.
Yering Frog Pinot Noir, Yarra Valley, Australia 22.45
A delicate, fruity, light Pinot Noir from the ever popular Yarra Valley, perfect on a hot summer's evening..
Chianti, Colli Senesi, Italy 27.95
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.
Warm and spicy
E Gòt, Merlot, Italy 2.90 15.95
An interesting nose invites you to this fantastically fruity, well balanced wine, with a hint of Sangiovese which brings out a little spicy finish. Truly delightful.
Peter Lehman Barossa Shiraz, Australia 3.20 18.45
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 3.40 19.95
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 .
Primitivo, Puglia, Zinfandel, Italy 2.90 16.25
An elegant fruity wine from the heart of Italy. The heat of the region brings out the sugars of the grape, making this an excellent wine with food or just on its own.
Blackstone Shiraz, California 3.10 17.50
A superb full bodied nose with good fruit, which is almost jammy. If you could spread it on your toast, you would.
Pena de Pato, Dâo, Portugal 3.40 19.95
Vibrant, full-bodied, and delicious. Possibly the best Portugese wine we have tasted. Trust me, give it a go.
Minervois Pujol Syrah, Languedoc, France 18.45
A really distinctive, carefully-made wine with a herb, mint, eucalyptus character. Don't operate heavy equipment (door knobs, knife and fork, coat hooks) after consumption.
Marquës de Borba, Alentejo, Portugal 20.95
This wine is made from some strange grape no one has ever heard of but who cares, it's full of luscious fruit with a fine acidity and has a long, well structured finish.
Crozes-Hermitage, 'Les Meysonniers', Northern Rhõne, France 29.95
Flying its flag proudly from the battlements of the Chapoutier house, this Rhone has a violet perfume and gentle pepper-tinged body of complexity.
Smooth and earthy
Lecho de Piedra, Rioja Crianza, Spain 3.30 19.95
A typical smooth and silky mouth feel, matched with a dark fruit character that stampedes on your palate like a raging bull. .
Los Vilos Cabernet Sauvignon, Chile 2.80 15.95
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.
Chateau Meriguet Claret, Bordeaux, France 19.95
Freshly crushed blackcurrants with subtle oaked edges: the richness of a young Claret with the depth of a mature wine. Succulent and moreish.
Bodegas Lar de Lares Reserva, Tempranillo, Spain 23.45
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.
Purisima Estate Merlot, Chile 19.50
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 29.95
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 54.00
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 20.95
With ripe dark fruits on the nose and 6.5 litre-V12 Hummer powered flavours on the palate.
Chateau Les Amoureuses, Cotes du Rhone, France 26.50
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 28.95
A great big Christmas cake of a wine, with rich, dark fruit and a marzipan nose.
Amarone Della Valpolicella, Rugola, Veneto, Italy 42.00
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.
Rioja Reserva, Rondan, Spain 27.50
A velvet smooth, classic Rioja with bags of old fashioned noble oak, spices, charred toast and vanilla to give a mouth-filling body with good structure.
Rosé
Chateau la Gravette, Minervois, France 3.00 16.50
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.
Rosé d'Anjou, France 3.00 16.50
A beautiful sweet rosé that never becomes tired. Clean and refreshing with lovely undertones of strawberries.
