Wines

Harkers - Whites

House White	125 ml	Bottle
Moncaro, Trebbiano - Italy	2.80	14.50
Clean, fruity, succulent white with a well-balanced finish.
Crisp, dry and refreshing
Pinot Grigio, Le Poesie - Italy	3.20	17.50
Everything you want from a good Pinot Grigio, fresh, fruity and fun.
Viognier/ Chardonnnay, Domaine de Fabregues - France		17.95
This has all the perfect fruit punch to develop that lovely peachy character that comes from the best Viogniers. Add a splash of Chardonnay for a bit of backbone and you've got a sensationally refreshing wine.
Muscat d'Alsace Reserva, Henri Ehrhart - Alsace		21.95
This has lovely grapey Muscat fruit on the nose, with good weight and flavour in the mouth. Refreshing fruit is balanced by good acidity.
Chardonnay, Last Stand - Australia	3.45	18.95
We've been a little bored of some of the flabby fluid coming up from down under lately so have been on the hunt for something with fresh fruit, a little acidity and a pinch of oak. This beaut sourced from the Maclaren Vale pushes all our buttons, and more.
Sauvignon Blanc, Kleine Zalze- South Africa	3.20	17.95
Refreshing with a little burst of tropical fruit and limes, with just enough grassiness to set off my hayfever.
Muscadet, Chateau de la Ragotiere, 2007 - France		19.25
Forget dusty old hotels from the eighties - this long lost wine is enjoying a renaissance thanks to its crisp and dry flavours and subtle palate.
Clean but rounded
Frascati, Cantina Villafranca - Italy		17.95
A lovely Italian white - entirely without fuss - fruity, zippy and zesty, and especially appropriate for the season .
Colombard, Chevalier Famey - France		16.95
The aromas walk out of the glass, the flavours burst on the tongue and it's as refreshing as you could hope for.
Sauvignon Blanc, Witts End - New Zealand	4.00	21.95
With the hallmark aromas of gooseberry and nettles that you would expect from Marlborough, this is crisp, fruity and rather naughty.
Gavi di Gavi DOCG, Vigna del Bosco 2009 - Italy		25.50
This really is a delicious drop. Its pretty rich but with soft, open citrus fruit flavours. If your looking to refresh your palate then look no further.
Sancerre, Delaporte Cuvee Maxim - France		38.50
Classic in style with sack-loads of minerals and a lemon and lime finish.
Pouilly Fumé La Rambarde - France		30.00
This Loire beauty is great alongside anything with gills.
Fruity and aromatic
Trebbiano / Chardonnay, Moncaro - Italy	2.90	14.95
Great, medium wine, light, fresh and easy drinking.
Chardonnay, Los Vilos - Chile	3.10	16.95
Fresh and well balanced, thanks to the addition of a small amount of Sauvignion Blanc. Full of tropical fruit flavours and floral aromas.
Chenin Blanc, Pavillion Estate - South Africa	3.30	17.95
South Africas favourite grape, with a little help from the boys from the Rhone in the form of viognier. Bursting with tropical fruit, this is something a little different.
Sauvignon Blanc, Luis Felipe Edwards - Chile	3.10	16.95
Luscious and very gluggable, with well-balanced tropical fruit. Fantastic value.
Picpoul de Pinet, Dud De Mornay, Langeuedoc - France		19.95
Grown on a limestone sun baked plataeu west of the Mediterraneans Golfe de Lyon. This is proper holiday wine. Slap some sun tan lotion on, and enjoy.
Minervois, Chateau Canet 2008 - France		23.50
A bit of an oddity this one. Delicate, unoaked and with great minerality, you might also find hints of fennel and a touch of aniseed.
Pinot Gris, Lurton - Argentina		19.95
Rare in Argentina, the Lurtons harvest this variety first each year to retain the delicate bouquet and the rich complex flavours of peaches, apricots and raisins. Deliciously interesting.
Gewurtzraminer, Pfaffenheim - Alsace		23.50
Gewurztraminer literally means 'spicy grape' and if your nose works at all you'll soon see why.
Rich and full
La Fage, Cotes du Roussillon Cuvee Centenaire - France		24.50
Grown on cool, pebbly hills, a good, crisp wine with honey, pear and pineapple aromas.
Rioja, Conde de Jauregui - Spain	3.45	19.25
Lovely buttery texture with apricot and peach flavours. Somewhat of an oddity, being a white Rioja, this is a wine for the slightly more adventurous palate.
Petit Chablis, Domaine Chevallier 2007 - France		28.95
Excellent 'beginner level' Chablis, pure, crisp, flinty flavours with a clean mineral finish.
Chablis Grand Cru, Maison Regnard 2007 - France		45.00
From one of the oldest and most prestigious houses in Chablis. Pale yellow with green highlights, the wine is expressive of white flowers, lime-tree, and lemon and grapefruit zest. Mouth-wateringly good.
Rosé
Pinot Grigio Rose, Amanti - Italy	3.20	17.50
Beautiful salmon pink and refreshing. Soft, easy Pinot Grigio Rosé with juicy red strawberry fruit.
Zinfandel, Wandering Bear - California	3.10	17.25
Raspberry and strawberry with mouth watering juicy red cherries. Oh my this is one for the girlies.
Grenache Gris, Domaine Roman - France	3.10	16.95
Pale pink with wild berries and fruit and a long satisfying dry finish.
Champagne and Sparkling Wines
Prosecco Spumante, Pasqua - Italy	3.80	19.95
The kind of almond and biscuit tones that you might expect from a champagne, with a price tag that shouldn't offend.
Nierano Prosecco Rose - Italy	3.80	20.95
Lightly sparkling and fruity - quaffed by the bucket-load, this is fun wine for any time.
Loius Dornier - France	5.50	38.00
A classic champagne, ageing for two years in the bottle has ensured that the champagme has developed a fine sparkle and a delicious taste.
Laurent Perrier Rose - France		66.50
How do the people at Laurent Perrier do it? All those tiny bubbles trapped in a redcurrant and apple-flavoured alcoholic concoction so delicious, creamy and light, it's a wonder they want to escape. Escape they do, though, making for one of the most decadent fizz experiences you'll ever have.

Harkers - Reds

House red	125 ml	Bottle
Montepulciano D'abruzzo, Marchesini - Italy	2.80	14.50
A delightfully gluggable Italian charmer.
Light and Juicy
Cotes du Rhone, La Dive 2009 - France		19.95
Ruby red with cherries and spices. Big fleshy wine with smooth tannins.
Pinot Noir, Escale 2009 - France	3.50	19.50
From one of the cooler areas of Languedoc, giving lovely light subtle flavours and a soft raspberry bouquet. The concentrated flavours of berry and black olive make this a wine that punches way above its weight.
Pinot Noir, Sol De Andes - Chile		25.00
Thin-skinned Pinot Noir is tricky, and if treated wrongly can refuse to taste any good. Luckily these grapes have been treated very well indeed. Ripe berries and subtle oak give a well rounded wine.
Smooth and earthy
Corvina/Cabernet Sauvignon, Thesaurum - Italy	3.90	21.95
Cheeky little wine from the Soave region. Ripe berries and full of glugabilty. The dogs b****cks with sunday roasts.
Tempranillio, Castillo de Monjardin 2007 - Spain	3.10	16.95
Bright and fresh fuity little Spanish number. Bit berries for your bucks with a full on jammy finish.
Cote du Rhone, Chateau les Amoureuses - France		27.95
Ripe, glossy raspberry bouquet, spiced with a touch of black peppercorn and bags of juicy raspberry fruitiness. A long, layered finish keeps inviting one back for more.
Chateau de Chantegrive 2001 - France		36.50
From the birthplace of claret, a cracking wine from the Graves region. Complex bouquet with hints of toast and ripe black fruit.
Warm and spicy
Syrah, Remi and Jerome VdP - France	3.45	18.95
From vineyards just north of Narbonne, warm and spicy with blackberries and damsons.
Rioja, Vina Palaciega Joven - Spain	3.45	19.25
A fresh juicy palate with ripe cherries, strawberries and a hint of spice.
Shiraz - Soldiers Block, MaClaren Vale - Australia	3.45	18.95
Decent Shiraz is becoming as synonymous with Australia as Rolf Harris and kangaroos. This positively oozes rich dark fruits, pepper and lively spices with just a hint of smooth, silky chocolate.
Chianti, Ruffino 2009 - Italy		22.95
More of a rustic style Chianti but still rich in fruit with a touch of balsamic. This is not a quaffing wine.
Rioja Reserva, Conde 2004 - Spain		30.95
The key word here is 'Reserva' which means that it is made from superior grapes and only released when it is ready to drink. Made in a traditional style (very smooth, loads of caramel), this is a huge quality step up from bog standard Rioja.
Rich and plummy
Merlot, Ladere Verde - Chile	3.10	16.95
Everyday drinking merlot. Ripe plums, cherries and vanilla will have you needing to 'unwrap' another immediately.
Cabernet Sauvignon, Los Vilos - Chile	3.10	16.95
A blast from the past for us this one. It lost its way a few years back but this big juicy South American beauty is back. Full of blackcurrant and a rounded warm finish.
Valpolicella, Campolieti - Italy		22.95
Incredible value for money and the very top quality. Fermented over the lees of their Amarone to give an incredibly rich and fruity style.
Malbec, Nieto - Argentina	3.40	18.95
Bring on the steak. Lashings of plums, figs, dried fruits and smoky vanilla character. Aged in French oak for added complexity this is a beast of a wine.
Dao, Quinta do Correiro - Portugal		23.50
Vibrant, herbacious with black fruits and smokey notes this is just the ticket with a slab of red meat.
Clos de Cana, 2001 - Lebanon		35.95
Absolute knockout Cabernet, Merlot, Syrah, awash with liquorice, berries, thyme and even a hint of sumac (a tree or shrub of the genus Rhus - ed).
Dark and satanic
Chateauneuf du pape, Domaine de Nalys, 2007 - France		39.50
A beautifully classic silky wine with fig, blueberry and liquorice on the palate and subtle sweet spice aromas. 'Once you've had pape, you'll never look back!'.
Ripassa Valpolicella, Zenato - Italy		35.00
High alcohol and big flavours can lead to a wine being out of balance. Gladly, this isn't one. Strong black cherry and raisins with an oaky finish. If your a lover of big hearted wines this could be the wine you have been waiting for.
Chateau Teyssier, Saint Emilion Grand Cru 2007 - France		42.00
Never delved into the world of fine French wines? This beaut from winemaker Jonathan Maltus might be just the thing. Rich, velevety, spicy and very approachable .
Cordero di Montezemolo Barolo 2005 - Italy		58.00
Crushed flowers, raspberries and spice emerge from this mid weight, graceful Barolo, that in every way captures the essense of the region. Okay so it's expensive, but you might die tomorrow.
Dessert wines
D'Arenberg Fortified Shiraz - Australia (37.5cl)		17.25
A spin on vintage port that is full bodied with black fruits. Liquorice and dried fruits. Not for the faint hearted.
Muscat de Rivesaltes - France (50cl)		19.95
Honey and hazelnuts on the nose and a burst of candied fruit and brioche flavours.
Vignaioli Moscato D'Asti - Italy (37.5ml)		19.95
Like Lambrusco - but good. At a forgiving five and half percent alcohol you'll be able to crack right on without becoming florrid and starting to sing. The only danger is you'll be onto the next bottle before you know it.
Royal Tokaji Aszu 2000 - Hungary (250ml)		15.50
Royal Tokaji is Europe's oldest vinyard classification and the wines from this region are generally cosidered to be amongst the world's finest. A small bottle, but enough for four to share.
