Wine list
We hope this list has something for everyone! We work very closely with our three suppliers to ensure the wines shown here are of the highest quality, but that they’re also a little different and a lot of fun. Sláinte!
White
| Le Petit Paul – Languedoc – France Organic Chardonnay, Vermentino Aromatic and fruity but also elegant. A brilliant all rounder and great bang for your buck. | |
| Paddy Borthwick – Marlborough – New Zealand Sauvingnon Blanc The epitome of what a New Zealand sauvignon should be! | |
| Guilhem Blanc, Moulin de Gassac – Languedoc, France Sauvignon Blanc, Grenache White, Terret Blanc Splendidly lively from our neighbours in Kilcrohane. Super fresh nose, lovely light yellow fruits on the palate. Practically jumps out of the glass! | |
| Dveri Pax – Kakovostno – Slovenia Furmint, Pinot Gris Named for the monks who began making wine here a thousand years ago. Refined and elegant nose, citrus and white flowers on the palate. Hallelujah. | |
| Cíu Cíu – Falerio – Italy – Organic Trebbiano, Passerina, Pecorino Lucious white fruits balanced by crisp acidity. Named for the sound of the trains which pass by this organic vineyard. Choo choo, baby! | |
| Elias Mora Verdejo – Rueda – Spain Organic Intense greenish-golden colour with notes of candied citrus peel and anise-like background over hints of ripe pineapple. The palate is fresh and rich simultaneously, with a long aftertaste of fennel and fruit flavours. | |
| Le Pont de Gassac, Moulin de Gassac – Languedoc – France Chardonnay, Viognier, Sauvignon Blanc Intense aromas of oranges and white flowers on the nose. Fruity on the palate with a touch of honey. Long and strong, fresh and full finish. Such a great wine from the premier cru of the Languedoc. |
Natural Wines
| La Sapata – Podgoria Sarica Niculitel DOC – Romania Aligoté Aligoté plays second fiddle to chardonnay in white Burgundy, but this wine, made organically, using traditional methods is every bit as good as a premier cru! | Organic | Natural |
Red
| Le Petit Pont – Languedoc – France Organic Merlot, Granache, Cinsault Juicy fruit and soft tannins make this a beautiful all rounder | |
| Le Rondon – Rioja – Spain Tempranillo This is a classic from Spain’s most loved wine region. Dark fruit on the nose with some spiciness from the oak and silky mouthfeel. An old reliable! | |
| Cíu Cíu – Baccus – Italy Sangiovese, Montepulciano A wine we will never take off the menu! Delicious ripe fruit on the palate – raspberry and cherry with hints of liquorice, ending off with a lovely savoury finish. Brilliant in every month of the year. | |
| Guilhem Rouge, Moulin de Gassac – Languedoc – France Granache, Syrah, Craignan Red berries and spice on the nose, delicate and sophisticated palate, long finish. Those who have been lucky to travel to the vineyard for the harvest will recognise this wine from the extraordinary lunches hosted by the Guibert family! | |
| Le Pont de Gassac, Moulin de Gassac – Languedoc – France Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Merlot, Grenache The king of grapes (Cab. Sauv.) dominates here. This wine represents everything good about the Guibert family’s wines. The nose is expressive and complex, the palate is powerful but elegant and fresh and the finish is long and satisfying. |
Rose
| Guilhem Rose Moulin de Gassac – France Carignan, Cinsault, Grenache A rosé in the classic southern French style. Pale and delicate, but with a moreish palate of red berries and citrus |
Sparkling

| Mas de Daumas Gassac Rosé Frizzante – Languedoc – France 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Mourvèdre, Pinot noir, Sauvignon, Petit Manseng and Muscat. This is an absolutely brilliant wine, but no need to take our word for it. This is from world renowned wine writer, Jancis Robinson: “so unpretentiously lovely and delight-delivering that it actually made me happy the moment I tasted it… it’s the kind of wine that will go with absolutely anything you want it to”. |
