Wimbledon Wine Cellar: The Best Selection of Fine Wine in London
*All prices in bond* 87-89 pts 4 stars Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy A similar colour, pale primrose perhaps. A little bit crisper and more classic in bouquet. Delicious white fruit, very balanced, feel the limestone, enough flesh yet with precision as well. A longer and more mineral finish than Forgets.
*All prices in bond* 88 - 90 pts, 3 Stars, Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy Pale lemon colour. Not much nose in these small glasses. There is good tension here on the palate, a crisp lemon note along with some fresh apples. Not immediately intense but with good length. A little touch of the positive youthful bitters.
*All prices in bond* 86 - 88 3 Stars, Jasper Morris, MW, Inside Burgundy Mid lemon and lime, restrained nose. A little bit of honeysuckle and musk here, but a significant concentration of fruit on the palate, with a density of texture. Plenty of wine to work with here. Drink from 2024-2027. Tasted: October 2023.

Incredible value Burgundy from one of the most talented winemakers in Burgundy - the ever talented Claire Naudin. Gorgeous to drink now. Perfect with smoked salmon and seafood.

This wine is mineral driven, with slight floral notes and a steely crisp acidity which makes you want to go back for more. A classic and classy Chablis, showcasing the mineral terroir beautifully with notes of flint stone and fleshy fruits lingering on the palate. A wine that goes well with Burgundy snails, Chablis sausage and seafood.
*Prices in Bond* Piercingly fresh, intense aromatics reveals hints of sweet pear, apple purée, white blossom, and seductive honeysuckle. On the palate, the freshness and vibrant white citrus fruits melt into a pithy, stony, briney saline liquid minerality.
*Prices in Bond* This cuvee spends 12 months in oak and then three and a half months on its fine lees in tank. The aromatics show a dusty limestone minerality with pithy green pear, hints of buttered white toast and yellow grapefruit confit.

New release of 2008 R.D. from Champagne Bollinger.

The wines of 5th-generation Jean-Michel Chartron are "well worth seeking out" (Neal Martin). That includes this opulent and creamy Crémant fizz, made from pure Chardonnay. Bright apple and citrus, with floral and biscuit notes and fine bubbles.
NEW RELEASE (March 2024). The 2015 La Grande Année is shaping up to be one of the best Champagnes of the vintage, on a par with Cristal and outscoring the likes of Veuve Clicquot Grande Dame and Pol Roger Winston Churchill. And yet the best priced out of all of those prestige cuvées!

Simply stunning, evocative deep purple, with black fruited aromas, a hint of tar and the classic lift of white pepper.

Petite Sirah is a close relative to Syrah. Like Syrah, it is a dark-coloured grape that yields wines with floral aromas, deep colour and full, rich tannins. To moderate tannins, we fermented the grapes de-stemmed, as whole berries. Aging in twenty-five percent new oak over sixteen months has softened the wine.
Over 180 years ago, Johann Christian Henschke settled in the Eden Valley where he built his farm. When third generation, Paul Alfred Henschke took over the reins in 1914, the now famed Hill of Grace vines were more than 50 years old.
