Mayfly Sauvignon Blanc 2025
Mayfly Sauvignon Blanc is a vibrant, single-vineyard white wine from Marlborough , New Zealand , sourced exclusively from the Kerseley Estate in Dillon's Point, just half a mile from the sea. Named after the mayflies that drift above New Zealand's crystalline streams in the first warmth of summer, this is a pure, refreshing, and expressive Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc that is sure to leave wine lovers hooked. Why You'll Love It Dillon's Point sits at the northern tip of the Marlborough wine region, where the proximity to the sea brings a distinctive coastal influence to the wines. The Kerseley Estate is a single vineyard site with vines planted between 1991 and 2008, managed with meticulous care to optimise canopy balance and fruit quality. Fermented with natural yeasts in stainless steel at low temperatures with no oak ageing, this is Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc in its purest, most expressive form, a wine that faithfully reflects the character of one exceptional site. Vineyard & Production All fruit is sourced from the single Kerseley Estate vineyard in Dillon's Point, with vines planted between 1991 and 2008 and managed on a VSP trellis system to optimise canopy balance and fruit quality. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at low temperatures using natural yeasts to faithfully express the single vineyard site. No oak ageing is employed, ensuring a crisp, fruit-forward style of real purity and freshness. Tasting Notes Youthful and expressive on the nose, with lifted notes of asparagus, ripe peach, and exotic fruits. The palate is fresh and deliciously crisp, with excellent natural acidity, a rounded body, and a long finish that lingers on peach and citrus tones. Perfect Pairings Perfect alongside grilled fish, Asian-inspired seafood, and fragrant Thai dishes. Also excellent with sushi, goats cheese, and light summer salads.

Pique & Mixe Piquepoul-Terret 2024
Vignerons de Florensac Pique & Mixe is a vibrant, characterful white from one of the Mediterranean coast's oldest and most celebrated terroirs. A 50/50 blend of Picpoul and Terret — two indigenous southern French varieties — harvested at night from HVE3-certified vineyards on clay and limestone soils, this is a wine of remarkable freshness, citrus-driven energy, and genuine coastal character. Why You'll Love It Florensac's high-ground vineyards benefit from cooling sea breezes that moderate the summer heat, preserving aromatic purity and natural acidity in the grapes. Vignerons de Florensac's commitment to sustainable practices and night harvesting ensures every bottle captures the best of this exceptional terroir. Picpoul is already a firm favourite for seafood lovers — add Terret to the blend and you get something even more interesting: lively, exotic, and endlessly refreshing. Vineyard & Production Grapes are sourced from HVE3-certified vineyards and harvested at night to preserve flavour, freshness, and aromatic intensity. After full destemming, the grapes undergo a brief 2-hour cold maceration before pneumatic pressing. The must is cooled to 4°C and stabilised on lees for 10 days with CO₂, before fermentation at cool temperatures to retain aromatic freshness and structure. Unoaked. Tasting Notes Pale yellow with brilliant green reflections. Fresh notes of lemon and grapefruit on the nose. The palate is exotic, lively, and vibrant — citrus-driven richness with an elegant, persistent finish that keeps you reaching for another glass. Perfect Pairings A classic match for oysters, shellfish, and seafood platters. Also excellent with grilled sea bass, moules marinière, and light Mediterranean dishes. A brilliant summer aperitif on its own. The Blend Picpoul 50%, Terret 50%
