A vibrant Australian white wine, the 2021 Murdoch Hills Sauvignon Blanc is full of tropical fruit notes and sweet citrus throughout the palate.

The 2020 Christophe Mittnacht Riesling is an organic and biodynamic wine from Alsace that offers notes of apples, pears, flinty minerals and a hint of petroleum on the palate.

This is a blend of Carignan, Grenache and Caladoc (a cross between Malbec and Grenache) from the Rhone Valley. On the nose there is plenty of dark spices, plum, cherry and black pepper. The palate as plenty of raspberry and some meaty notes that make it perfect to pair with a lamb stew.

The dual facing label on this bottle shows either the Good Luck Club or the Bad Luck Club to denote both the highs and the lows of winemaking, chance and 'the undulations of human existence'. This is a big juicy Aussie Cabernet with lashings of blackcurrant, chocolate and kirsch soaked plums. On the palate it is very easy drinking with ripe sweet tannins, a perfect mid week wine.

The vineyards of Henners are less than a mile form the sea in East Sussex which they farm with minimal intervention. This rose has notes of cranberry, rosehip and red apple with a hint of peach and strawberry on the finish. The perfect sunshine sipping wine.

Dirk Niepoort is the master of all things vinous and this old style Vinho Verde is an example of just how good he is. In the past the winemakers used to bottle the Vinho Verdes with a little bit of residual sugar and the fine lees so they refermented a bit in bottle. This wine brings that tradition back. On the nose shortbread, pineapple, lavender and apple blossom. The palate has lovely gentle spritz that lifts the fruity notes of green mango, apples and citrus. This is a wonderful accompaniment to fried fish. This wine will be a little cloudy.

This Greek rose from one of the country's top wine estates does not disappoint – it is absolutely delicious. Made from Agiorgitiko grapes, an indigenous varietal that has been grown at high altitude it has a beautiful vibrancy to it. On the nose notes of rhubarb, cranberry and Thai basil with hints of lemon balm. On the palate this is a very elegant grown up rose with hints of cherry, rose petal and pink grapefruit.

This is a quirky blend of Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris and Riesling. The whole bunches of Pinot Noir spends a few days in contact the juice of the the Pinot Gris and Riesling and it is bottled with no sulphur. It is a funky little number with lifted strawberry, cranberry and a red cherry. The palate has a sappy fruity character with griotte cherries, raspberry and a fresh finish. Don't be afraid to chill this wine down and have it with roasted seabass or monkfish.

A fruity, rich red wine that is made with Fer Servadou grapes, an obscure variety grown on the two hectare Domaine in the southwest of France. The palate offers notes of blackberries, figs, raspberries and tobacco leaves that linger in the finish alongside clean minerals.

Laurent Habrard has 15 hectares of vineyards in the Northern Rhone that he farms organically. His wines have very little sulphur and he has a very hands off approach to winemaking. On the nose apricot, ginger and thyme are gently supported by a whiff of wood smoke. The a palate is so precise with beautiful lifted silky fruit, sage and nocerella olives.
