Montrose Rose Mont Rosé 2021
R 185 PER BOTTLE
It should be rosé all day this summer! Established in 1701, Grenache-based rosé is Domaine Montrose’s calling card, and Jancis Robinson dubs them 'the real aristocrats of Languedoc rosé'. Creamy and citrussy on the palate with a juicy acidity, the finish is gentle and focused. It’s utterly delicious and elegant, and only R185 per bottle.

Huet Cuvée Constance Moelleux 2018
R 2,500 PER BOTTLE
What Château d'Yquem is to Sauternes, Vouvray finds in Domaine Huet’s Cuvée Constance Moelleux 2018. This rare ‘stunner’, writes Wine Spectator, is produced only in exceptional vintages and will age for decades. It’s 100% Chenin Blanc and boasts concentrated cordial flavours of stone and orchard fruit, complemented by dried herbs and a steely minerality.

Our value red wine of the year is the Raats Dolomite Cabernet Franc 2019.
