DAOSA Piccadilly Valley Blanc de Blancs 2015 “The ripeness of the warm 2015 vintage is showcased in pear, grapefruit, golden delicious apple and even notes of fig, backed with the spicy, roast almond complexity of full oak fermentation.

DetailsTerre à Terre Down to Earth Sauvignon Blanc 2018 “Pristine, racy, tightly wound Sauvignon Blanc but there’s more than meets the palate here. Lemony tang, touch of passionfruit, but a curl of distinct chalky minerality, faintest creamy-savouriness and a rod of steely acidity through it all. Lots going on. Complex yet understated.

From the Crayères vineyard in Wrattonbully, there’s 12% Cab Franc in the mix, the blend spending 10 months in 48% new small oak, then a further 18 months in large, older foudre. Toasty oak, but the luscious…
DetailsDAOSA Blanc de Blancs 2015 “Medium to light yellow colour, with a fresh bouquet which showcases coconut, nougat and cashew nut, indicating barrel use, plus lemon curd. It’s full-bodied and weighty, revealing great concentration of fruit flavour, richness and grip. Very dry finish as a result. Powerful, long finish. A very individual style: not a…
