El Huique Cabernet Sauvignon Colchagua Valley 2008

El Huique Cabernet Sauvignon Colchagua Valley 2008 14% £5.99

Sorry, just out of stock, but new shipment arriving in next ten days. On the back of the phenominal success of el Huique's oak-aged Reserva reds, I've been seduced also by the purity and depth of fruit of their unoaked reds as well. Here's the Cabernet  Sauvignon; deep, concentrated colour and all the cassis fruit that goes with it. A great example of El Huique's ability to produce characterful wines at great prices.
Drink now to end 2010
El Huique Chilean Chardonnay Colchagua Valley 2008

El Huique Chilean Chardonnay Colchagua Valley 2008 14% £5.99

Recommended in The Sunday Express March 2009. “A delicious, lightly-oaked Chardonnay, this is full bodied with ripe, tropical-fruit flavours. A wine that punches above it's weight”. We are the first to ship the wonderful wines from El Huique (pronounced "Weekeh") into the UK. Chill it right down and this is superb! Bursting with tropical fruit and hints of minerality, this Chardonnay is an almost perfect balance of new world fruit and French terroir. You know you are drinking something with character, but it's not too demanding.

St George's Mushrooms à la Bordelaise

Supper snack for four people. A great fusion of English Mushrooms with a French flavour.

The St George's Mushroom definitely ranks amongst the finest wild mushrooms, with a firm texture, appealing mealy smell and distinctive flavour, reminiscent of soil and wood smoke. In France it is known as le vrai mouserron, "the true mushroom". St. George's Mushroom typically fruits by St.George's Day on 23rd April, and is therefore a spring to summer species. If you don't fancy foraging for them yourself, the closest alternative available commercially would be Chestnut Mushrooms.
  • 1kg mushrooms, washed and thoroughly dried.
  • 3 or 4 tbs olive oil
  • 4 spring onions finely chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic finely chopped
  • 1 tbs chopped flatleaf parsley
  • Juice of half a lemon
  • Knob of butter
  • Salt & pepper
  • Heat the oil in the largest frying pan you have (or Wok)
  • Fry the whole mushrooms until tender and taking a bit of colour.
  • Add the chopped spring onions and garlic and continue frying for another minute or two.
  • Add the lemon juice, butter, salt & pepper to taste. Continue frying until the butter has melted and all is mixed in.
  • Garnish with the parsley and serve on thick buttered toast.
  • Wash down with a bottle of El Huique Chardonnay
Louis Fabre Merlot 2008 VdP Oc 13.5%

Louis Fabre Merlot 2008 VdP Oc 13.5% £5.99

The previous 2007 vintage was voted in the Top 100 Vins de Pays blind tasting in the UK last year so Louis Fabre has a double accolade with his Sauvignon Blanc which also made the Top 100. Classic soft, smooth plummy Merlot showing a nice deep colour and enough grip to go well with a meal as well as being great on its own. This 2008 is bursting with youthful, vibrant fruit. Drink now to 2011
Louis Fabre Sauvignon Blanc 2009 VdP Oc 12.5%

Louis Fabre Sauvignon Blanc 2009 VdP Oc 12.5% £5.99

New 2009 vintage just in. One of my favourite times of the wine year is when the first shipment of new vintage young, fresh, crisp Sauvignon Blancs comes in. That was also the pleasure of the previous vintage of this wine ten months ago, showing how well it can mature and has got a hint of minerality, bordering on Poor Man's Sancerre! This will go exactly the same way.
Drink now to summer 2011
 
Andes Peaks Sauvignon Blanc 2008

Andes Peaks Sauvignon Blanc 2008 £5.99

ONLY 3 Bottles left.
 
This is tight, grassy Sauvignon Blanc with masses of the character and bite distinct to Sauvignons from the region but displays something of Marlborough as well.
Caliterra Chardonnay/Sauvignon Blanc 2006

Caliterra Chardonnay/Sauvignon Blanc 2006 £6.49

Grapes from specially slected sites in the cooler areas of the Curico Valley are used in this wine. Here, in the foothills of the Andes, grapes can ripen slowly, maintaining freshness and fruit flavours. A great accompaniment to fish, chicken and salads.
