Champagne Castelnau
Blanc de Blancs 2002
Finally on the brink of maturity, this cuvee shows the magnificent potential and class of a great 2002 Champagne. Aged nine years on lees, Champagne Castelnau blanc de blancs Millesime 2002 is 100 percent Chardonnay sourced mainly from the Champagne region of Montagne de Reims, Mont de Berru, Montgueux, and Cote des Blancs. The color is beautiful straw with gold overtones punctuated by fine beads of elegant bubbles. On the nose, light and almost smoky tones are reminiscent of the Orient, offering gently herbaceous notes of eucalyptus, thyme, sage and wild mint. On the palate, this Champagne is soft yet slightly acidic with fruit flavors such as mirabelle plum and yellow peach. This superb blanc de blancs can be served as an aperitif, but also pairs well with oysters, scallops and lobster. It is best served at 8C-10C.
French Red Wine
Chateau Villa Bel-Air 2010
2010 Chateau Villa Bel-Air comes from a vineyard where the soil is composed of Garonne gravel and clay. The wine is a blend of 50 percent Merlot, 40 percent Cabernet Sauvignon and 10 percent Cabernet Franc, giving it a deep red, almost opaque, color and deep-purple highlights. On the nose are powerful blackcurrants and a violet bouquet. It's full-bodied on the palate - opulent, with hints of oak and vanilla, and a long aftertaste with the stringency one expects of a young wine with ripe tannins. Best served at 17C-19C, this wine may need some time in the glass to show its true potential.

On the nose, this wine offers bright strawberry laced with a hint of banana (classic characteristics of this grape), followed by complex, ripe fruit flavors and a coffee undertone. The flavors extend to the palate where smooth tannins ensure a rich mouth-feel. Best served at 14C-16C, the wine can pair with various meat dishes and is also enjoyable on its own.

German White Wine
Monchhof Riesling 2012
The Monchhof estate was founded in the 11th century and parts of today's cellar still date back to that time. The ancestors of current owner Robert Eymael bought the estate at an auction in Paris in 1804 and quickly began to export their fine wines. 2012 Monchhof Riesling is made from 100 percent Riesling grapes grown in two vineyards. The volcanic soil of Uerziger Wuerzgarten vineard gives the wine its tropical fruit and herbal flavors, while grapse from the Erdener Treppchen vineyard, which sits on red slate, impart peach and apricot flavors. The iron in the red slate also imparts a lot of minerality to this wine. The 2012 Monchhof Riesling is fresh and racy with white peach, apricot, passion fruit and pear aromas. It is vibrant and highly mineral with hints of spices and herbs followed by a mouthwatering finish.
Fortified Wine
Burdon Dry Fino Sherry
This is a very dry and light sherry, smooth with a hint of sea and attractive fruit. The taste comes across as very fresh with an accent of tangy yeast. This fortified wine is solera matured in the coastal town of El Puerto de Santa Maria, Cadiz, on the southern tip of Spain. It can be drunk as an aperitif, with tapas, or as an accompaniment to seafood, fish or white meat.
Fortified Wine
Taylor's LBV Port
Taylor's was established in 1692 right at the very birth of port wines. The company was the pioneer of the LBV (Late Bottled Vintage) classification, leading to the increased popularity of port in modern times. Those who enjoy a glass will be greeted with powerful aromas of cherry and black fruits. On the palate, this complex LBV tantalizes with intense fruits and resounding floral and herbal notes. Harmonious, well crafted and authoritative, Taylor's LBV is the perfect way to end any meal.
