This, from the impressive 2016 vintage, is gorgeous. It is a blend of Furmint and Hárslevelű , the two greatest grape varieties of Tokaji. There’s tropical fruit, apricots, honeysuckle, and so much spice. And the sweetness is wonderfully balanced with bright acidity, and a minerality that comes from the volcanic soils of the Tokaji region.

The Petite Arvine is intense and savoury. There’s peaches here, and plenty of savoury spice, with notes of fresh ginger and a long and textured finish. Very saline on the finish: makes you reach for another glass.

This Chardonnay comes from vineyards at 1,400 metres above sea level, and is a taut, precise, yet generous and textured wine. There’s lemon oil and acacia blossom, and a wonderfully pure, focussed finish. A simply brilliant Chardonnay, from one of South America’s best.

From the high-altitude Adrianna Vineyard, White Stones is one of a pair of Chardonnays made by the Catena family from this special place. The winemaking is exactly the same for the two wines, with no new oak, no battonage and wild yeasts. The White Bones shows intense, fresh lemon barley, light tropical fruits, lavender, fresh mint and eucalyptus.

Les Hauts de Pierre is the pinnacle of Blaise’s production. It comes from a single parcel of old vine Chasselas, and is powerful, textured, and intense, almost reminiscent of top Burgundy. This 2019 is a little closed, but with texture and purity on the palate, it points to a long life ahead. The salinity and leesy complexity on the palate lasts an age, with notes of citrus and more savoury elements unfurling over time: this is a remarkable Swiss white.

Classified First Growth, Disznóko is one of the greatest single vineyards of Tokaj-Hegyalja. Under the leadership of AXA Millésimes since 1992 (owner of legendary estates such as Château Pichon Longueville, Château Suduiraut and Quinta do Noval), Disznóko combines state of the art technology with age-old local tradition. Their exclusive Kapi is a super premium 6 Puttonyos produced in very limited quantities from a tiny parcel of vines and only in exceptional vintages.

This is a sublime sweet wine that has a wonderfully complex bouquet of acacia honey, citrus peel, raisins, quince and dried apricots. On the palate, sweet Seville marmalade provides a rich and intense core supported by exotic spice, fig, clove and a hint of marzipan. Sweet, rich with a crisp, zesty acidity and a clean yet sumptuous texture. Liquid gold.

Estate Argyros are without a doubt the benchmark wine grower in Santorini, producing wines from some unique vineyards around this picturesque Greek island. The grapes for this 100% Assyrtiko come from 100-120 year old vines from various vineyards around the island including Messaria, Karterados, Pyrgos, Megalochori and Akrotiri. This wine epitomises everything that Assyrtiko can deliver, such minerality and purity on the palate combines with lemon verbena and white grapefruit. The acidity is incredibly zesty and refreshing, utterly delicious.
