Russiz Pinot Bianco

$39.19

The origins of the Felluga family - who own both Marco Felluga and Russiz Superior - dates back 150 years, and six generations later they enjoy a position as one of the benchmark producers of white wine in Italy. The winery follows sustainable viticulture practices and derives all of their electricity from solar panels. Collio is situated in northeast Italy on the border with Slovenia. The Pinot Bianco has a deep straw yellow colour with golden and green hues and expresses ripe apple and flower aromatics. In the mouth, it's silky and round with a lengthy finish.

Oud Beersel Green Walnut

$22.79

Producer's notes:

After the bottle fermentation this sparkling walnut Lambic of Oud Beersel is called Green Walnut, which is a strong companion for blue-veined cheese, dried ham and salads with nuts. The green walnuts macerate in the Lambic beer enabling them to unfold their taste and flavour.

The initial bitterness which is extracted from the walnuts is tempered during the ripening of the walnut Lambic. This results in a delicate balance between the light sourness of the Lambic beer and the bitterness of the green walnuts. The wooden wine barrels provide a subtle touch of red fruits to the beer.

Dumangin Whisky Bushmills 2014

$101.24

This one says its first maturation was for 6 years in (probably in ex-Bourbon) before a 12-month finish in a Ratafia Champenois Barrel. So...a seven-year-old then, rather than 6? Who knows? Maybe they were short a day or two somewhere in there. Either way, we love Bushmills. Especially when it comes from the indie bottlers. 

282 bottles. Natural colour and non-chill filtered. 47.3%

Morette Bardolino Chiaretto Rose

$23.99

The Morette – Valerio Zenato farm is one of the most dynamic areas of production in the Lugana DOC. The soils of this area originated from the retreating Garda glacier and are characterized by compact, chalky and marly clay stratification. A clay soils have high salinity levels due to mineral sediment, as well as benefiting from the mild micro-climate of the lake, which allows for quality wine production. The area is considered a small miracle amongst the “Terroir Viticole”. Light-bright rose in colour with a fragrant, fresh and fruity flavour. Its taste is delicate with lovely fresh strawberry fruit, and endowed with great freshness. Its finishes dry and crisp, in keeping with the classic personality of Bardolino Chiaretto. It's a versatile rosé, from hors-d’oeuvres, first courses, white fine meats and salmon.

Verderubbi Pita Verdejo 2023

$18.74

The Pita family has a long history in Spain's Rueda region, a DO dedicated solely to white wine. The dominant variety in the region is Verdejo, a grape that offers crisp citrusy white wines reminiscent of Sauvignon Blanc without the resounding grassiness.  It has a generous mouthfeel with notes of tropical fruit, and apples, and is certified organic. It would go well with shellfish and other appetizers.
