Domaine Berthenet Tete de Cuvee Montagny
Domaine Berthenet Tete de Cuvee Montagny is a dry Montagny with exotic flavours of pineapple, lemon and rich stone fruit. Crisp with lovely minerality.
Producer
Based in the village of Montagny itself, the Berthenet family has been growing grapes for around four centuries, although the estate in its current form was set up in 1974.
Initially it grew grapes for the co-op, but the decision was taken in 2001 to leave and begin bottling under its own name.
They work sustainably, allowing grass to grow between rows and working the soil rather than using herbicides.
Winemaking
They farm 20 hectares in total, 90 percent of which is planted with white grapes. As well as still wines, they also make Crémant, managing the whole process themselves.
Fruit is machine-harvested, which allows them to react quickly to difficult conditions. This was particularly useful in 2013 when wet weather caused rot but they could pick quickly to obtain healthy fruit, and 2015 when maturity arrived suddenly and fruit had to be picked quickly to preserve freshness.
It is also impractical to keep a harvesting team for the four weeks required to harvest each parcel at perfect ripeness.
François Berthenet is the current winemaker, and has been so since 2009. He has just been awarded winemaker of the year of Guide Hachette 2020.

Dandelion Vineyards Enchanted Garden of the Eden Valley 2018
The appearance of Dandelion Vineyards Enchanted Garden of the Eden Valley Riesling foretells the pristine and unalloyed quality of its fruit. Classic aromatics of citrus zest, lemon foliage and hints of dragon fruit flowers are etched by a clear steely minerality. This is an attractively textural wine displaying the variety's intense purity. Bone dry, its structure and length is underpinned by austere acidity.

Aromo Viognier 2018
Full bodied white with a rich background of savoury notes, a very aromatic peach and mayblossom fruit character, but without any sweetness. No oak and fresh fruit makes this wine a real winner. The Aromo wines have a great charm and appeal and this is no exception.

Domaine des Ballandors Quincy 2018
This is the village adjacent to Sancerre and Pouilly Fume where wines of similar style are made but because of Quincy’s ‘lesser’ name at much reduced cost. This wine is a testament to that; the flavours and aromas achieved in this wine are equivalent to any top flight Sancerre, with ‘grippy’ edgy grapefruit notes and steely crisp fruit. When Anton Beukes, winemaker at the Môreson Winery in South Africa, tasted this wine at supper, he said; ‘This is the wine I would love to make’ - Anton makes some very serious wines, so what an accolade! Winner of Best French White Wine at ‘France under one roof’ London 2005.

Domaine Patrick Vauvy Touraine Sauvignon Blanc 2019
Attractively aromatic, rich dry Sauvignon showing the fruit character of fully ripe grapes. Exotic fruits in abundance on the nose and just a hint of mint. On the palate its fresh and tangy and the finish is fruity and moreish. The obvious accompaniment to asparagus with hollandaise but should be tried with goats cheese and works well with tuna dishes.
