'Voluptuous and charmingly generous, with fine, zingy acidity.' Mattia Mazzi, Cornerstone. 'Citrus fruit, pear and gooseberry aromas, with some big concentration and a hit of spice on the palate, followed by savoury minerality and clean melon and pear fruit, with an expansive finish. Really complex and a great food matcher - it'd be nice with cheese like young Reblochon.' Charlie Young, team leader.
£15.97 Matthew Clark
'With notes of red apple, apricot and salted butter, as well as some oak and spices, this is a very good substitute for a pricey aged champagne on a restaurant wine list.' Elena Serban, Heritage Restaurant. 'Great minerality, as well as pastry and brioche notes. There's lots of fruit too, considering the age, and with much more to come. Complex and balanced.' Michael Driscoll, Careys Manor Hotel & SenSpa.
£18.57 Bibendum
'Brilliant, with vanilla and cream, Starburst strawberry and some salty, saline notes.' Harry Crowther, Grape Times UK. 'This has minerality and citrus fruits, and a fantastic palate with good acidity.' Michael Driscoll, Careys Manor Hotel & SenSpa. 'A plush wine with some well-integrated toasty elements, and toffee, vanilla and pear notes. This can go with heavier dishes, and will develop over time.' Alonso Abed, Trivet.
£22.81 Bibendum
'This is well-made and integrated, with citrus at the start, then cream and a light hazelnut note on the palate, all carried by acidity, and leaving a light, flinty finish.' Tim Handley, Royal Automobile Club. 'An elegant nose with some delicate citrus and minerality, and notes of bergamot and lemongrass. A dry palate and great creamy texture, and a refreshing finish.' Lionel Periner, team leader.
£20.12 Bibendum
'An incredibly powerful nose fills the glass, with dried apricot and almonds shining through. An oxidative character is backed up by bitter lemon rind and marmalade, and cut with salinity. Brilliantly fresh and uplifting.' Tim Handley, Royal Automobile Club. 'This is everything Jura has to offer, and worth every penny. It would suit high-end, sharing-style eateries.' Raphael Thierry, consultant.
£48.53 Bibendum
'Intense liquorice and black fruit aromas leading to a lighter palate with a cherry yoghurt character, and with good length that stays on the fruit.' Jade Koch, team leader. 'Good fruit content, with some real flashiness on the palate, alongside some well-balanced spice notes. This is super fresh, but with great structure too.' Sam Weatherill, Etch. by Steven Edwards.
£14.50 Weingut Franz Keller
'Floral and perfumed, with lots of fruit and an intense, long finish.' Gary Newborough, The Aristologist. 'Aromas of grapes, rose petals, fresh grass, pink grapefruit and apricot on the nose, with a fresh palate that has acidity to complement the fruit, and a long, fruity aftertaste. This would be a good match for sweet and sour dishes.' Filippo Pastorini, consultant.
£14.36 Hallgarten & Novum Wines
'A high-quality wine with some very interesting evolution. Very tropical on the nose, with floral rose petal notes too, balanced by some vegetal and lemongrass notes on the finish.' Monica Bacchiocchi, Wiltons. 'Very aromatic, with intense lime leaf and spice, and candied lime, but all held back by some lovely cardamon-spiced acidity. Intriguing, complex and long.' Nigel Lister, St. Swithins Wine Shippers.
£13.20 Liberty Wines
'A meaty and mineral wine, and a touch herbal, with dried fruit and spices on the nose. A ripe, full and balanced palate has an evolved note of bitter chocolate and mushrooms supported by great fruit dimension and some spices.' Chris Delalonde MS, The Dorchester. 'This is earthy and round, with big structure, and red and black fruit notes alongside some spicy and grassy flavours.' Elisa Soggia, Trivet.
£18.00 Fells
'Robust in style, with complex cassis and forest floor aromas, along with an intense fruit profile of cooked blackberries and pungent spice, and delicate juniper and eucalyptus. Some dense tannins, with a fine grip towards the long finish.' Valentin Radosav, Gymkhana Restaurant London. 'This has a sense of a place, with peppermint, oak spices and concentrated black fruits.' Elena Serban, Heritage Restaurant.
£16.03 Enotria&Coe
'Lively, funky and fun as hell, with cola bottle and honeydew notes. Drink it. Love it.' Harry Crowther, Grape Times UK. 'A very exciting, natural-focused wine that brings some good minerality.' Laurent Richet MS, team leader. 'A shining Chenin Blanc with great structure, ripe fruits, floral notes and hints of honey. A good example of a wine to be enjoyed with food.' Jurijs Nemkovs, StreetXO.
£17.87 Bibendum
'Unique and well-made, this is fresh, crisp and juicy, with some lovely fruit. Easy-drinking.' Matthieu Longuère MS, team leader. 'Leathery, earthy and rustic, with some precise cranberry fruit, spice, and a very elegant feel overall, with a silky texture.' Olivier Gasselin, OenoTrade. 'A very pretty petal nose gives way to a gravelly finish, with crunchy fruit in-between.' Oliver Zelenczuk, London Shell Co.
£26.45 Enotria&Coe
'A very complex wine with very intense and layered notes, some citrus and tropical notes, and a waxy, banana-leaf character, helped by superb acidity and formidable minerality.' Olivier Gasselin, OenoTrade. 'A great nose dripping with sweet pear juice, spice, quince, nuts and cream. This is lavish and luscious, with underlying oak giving creaminess and depth, yet it remains lively and vibrant.' Angela Reddin, team leader.
£14.47 Matthew Clark
'This is real Grenache. Serious Grenache, with an attitude, and the most phenomenally complex aroma of wild berries, pepper, mushroom, gravel and iron. Depth, intensity and generous structure, with wild strawberries and peppery spice, earthy undertones and brooding tannins.' Emanuel Pesqueira, Edwardian Hotels London. 'Ripe and sumptuous, with richness relieved by peppery notes and fresh acid.' Sarah Jane Evans MW, team leader.
£71.57 Heirloom Vineyards
'Really attractive and appealing, with a soft, gentle nose showing subtle notes of menthol and forest, leading to a rich and elegant palate with gentle tannins and a peppery finish. This is looking for a lightly chargrilled steak with chargrilled vegetables.' Antóin UáRuairc, UK Midland Sommelier. 'A fine example of Zinfandel that's big and structured, with a fine savoury finish.' Olivier Gasselin, OenoTrade.
£18.07 Bibendum
'This has lovely acidity and a fresh, light structure, with bright red berries and spice to complement the fruit, giving it more complexity.' Jurijs Nemkovs, StreetXO. 'A dry, fruity wine, with raspberries and red plums, some herbaceous and a hint of fresh mint.' Elisa Soggia, Trivet. 'High acidity is balanced by fresh black cherries and plums, as well as some savoury notes.' Lucie Hammerschmiedova, Portland Restaurant.
£26.01 Bibendum
'A subtle and elegant wine, almost Gamay-like and refreshing, this is youthful, with red berries and red flowers. Great.' Olivier Marie, team leader. 'A bit rustic in style, with juicy cherry, strawberry and raspberry notes, and firm tannins.' Adam Michocki, The Man Behind The Curtain. 'With primary red and blackberry fruit, this is a good house wine option for specialist restaurants, served with antipasti.' Claire Love, Loves Consultancy.
