La Coudee d Or Blanc Domaine Viret 2009 75cl
A natural gourmet wine, big and rich. If you like something crisp and pale this isn't for you. This wine contains a slight sediment and has a vaguely pink colour from the skin of one of the grapes. Pair it with good French cheese and charcuterie and enjoy leisurely. Please don't order this wine if you don't like this style as it is exceptionally limited.

Emergence Domaine Viret 2011 75cl
A blend of Grenache, Syrah and Carignan from old vines. Aged in barriques for 24 months. A big wine with strong fruit flavours and noticeable alcohol, supremely smooth and balanced with a tremendous finish. This is the biggest of their annually produced wines which really benefits from decanting. Superb.
