Il Cascinone Campo Fiorito Chardonnay 2021
A proper grown-up, textural Chardonnay from the Campo Fiorito vineyard, a 5-hectare north-east facing plot on the stunning Il Cascinone estate in Piemonte. This wine combines fresh stone fruit with subtle oak complexity, delivering a refined and expressive white wine. Meet the Producer Il Cascinone was acquired by leading Piemonte producer Araldica in 1999. The estate, nestled in the Monferrato hills, is renowned for its carefully managed vineyards and commitment to producing wines that reflect the elegance and typicity of the region. Production The 5ha Campo Fiorito vineyard faces north-east, benefiting from a cooler site ideal for slower ripening and fresh whites. Grapes are typically harvested between late August and early September. Approximately 15% of the wine is fermented and aged in French oak barriques to add richness and complexity, while the remainder is vinified in stainless steel to preserve freshness. Tasting Notes The nose is delicate, showing ripe stone fruit with lightly honeyed and creamy oak notes. On the palate, the wine is concentrated, balanced and textured, with ripe peach flavours, a satisfying mouthfeel, and a fresh, long finish with subtle savoury and toasty undertones. Food Match Pairs beautifully with white meats in cream sauces or fresh avocado salads.
Pasquiers Sauvignon Vermentino Vin de Pays D'Oc 2025
Pasquiers Sauvignon Rolle is a bright, aromatic southern French white from the Languedoc , blending the zingy freshness of Sauvignon Blanc with the exotic creaminess of Rolle (Vermentino) , two varieties that complement each other beautifully in the sun-drenched vineyards of the south. Why You'll Love It This is everyday southern French white wine at its most appealing, fresh, aromatic, and genuinely versatile. The Sauvignon brings crisp citrus vibrancy while the Rolle adds a smooth, exotic creaminess that lifts the blend above the ordinary. Crafted by Boutinot France , who have grown from a modest importer into a major presence in southern France through close partnerships with local growers, Pasquiers consistently delivers quality and character well above its price point. Vineyard and Production Sauvignon Blanc and Rolle are sourced from sun-drenched vineyards planted on alluvial sand and silt soils, encouraging deep root growth to withstand the hot, dry Languedoc summers. Harvest takes place in the cool of early morning, with Sauvignon Blanc picked earlier than Rolle to preserve its crisp acidity. Both varieties undergo cold maceration, gentle pressing, and fermentation on fine lees at 16 to 18 degrees, a process that highlights the creamy texture of Rolle and the zingy freshness of Sauvignon Blanc in equal measure. Tasting Notes Luscious aromas of exotic fruit from the Rolle harmonise with the clean, citrusy vibrancy of Sauvignon Blanc on the nose. The palate is smooth, dry, and refreshing, lively and aromatic with a subtle textural complexity that makes it genuinely moreish. Perfect Pairings A superb chilled aperitif, and equally at home with moules mariniere, creamy chicken dishes, grilled sea bass, goat's cheese salad, Thai green curry, sushi, or a simple platter of charcuterie and soft cheeses.
