Wimbledon Wine Cellar: The Best Selection of Fine Wine in London
Violet, rose petals and white pepper rise from the glass. A pleasant freshness to the palate with juicy red orange and grapefruit notes. Fragrant, medium in body and well balanced. An initial dry sensation from the oak, that softens with time. Noticeable tannins, yet fine.
The nose opens up citrus and flowery. Vistamare is layered and rich on the nose, a clear note of Scotch broom rises from the glass, followed by white pepper, rosemary and caper bush. Intensely fragrant on the palate, apricot stone, sage and a tangy mineral edge. It is creamy, with good balance and a refreshing and long finish.
2021 Rossj-Bass displays the main features of the vintage well, with intense fruit concentration and floral notes. The nose shows ripe citrus notes of lemon peel and orange evolving into tropical fruits. The richness of the nose and the same notes are reflected on the palate, where remarkable acidity balances the fruit concentration.
Already having scored 97 points from The Wine Independent's Susan Hulme MW, 96 points from Decanter's Aldo Fiordelli and 94+ points from Vinous's Antonio Galloni, it is clear this is a 'enticing wine worth waiting for' (DC).
In the vineyard: Sangiovese 88% and Canaiolo 12%, the soils are mainly composed of marl and alberese with a smaller percentage of boulder and sandstone. The 2021 vintage followed a regular trend. The winter was generally dry, with temperatures close to the seasonal average.

Round and delicate wine bursting with strawberry and raspberry characters and notes of peonies – a typical Brouilly from pink granite soil vineyards.
From a single vineyard plot in ‘Les Pierres Dorées’, made in the Burgundian way that creates aromatic, fresh and buttery characters with a mineral finish. A benchmark style for the region.
100% Gamay rosé made by direct pressing and short maceration. Pale, elegant and aromatic with strawberry notes leaping out of the glass.
Mixed case of Domaine Romy:
x4 Chardonnay Clos de La Chapelle 2020

Keyneton Euphonium references the Barossa hills village of Keyneton, which was home to the Henschke Family Brass Band and winery. The band was founded by second generation Paul Gottard Henschke in 1888.
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.
Unusual for its time, the Mount Edelstone Vineyard was solely planted with Shiraz in 1912. From the German ‘Edelstein’ meaning ‘gemstone’ this wine references the small yellow opals once found in the area.
Deep straw yellow color, intensely fruity aroma with notes of apple, peach, melon, jasmine and honey. Fruity and fragrant on the palate, with good acidity and persistence.
Over the past 47 years, Rare Champagne has only released 15 prestige cuvées across 13 vintages. Rare Brut Millésime 2013 is only the 12th iteration of its kind. Rare was considered Piper Heidsieck’s prestige cuvée until 2019. Rare Champagne was separated to form its own standalone house as we know it today.
A really beautiful example of Chardonnay from the Langhe. The wine is named after Angelo Gaja’s eldest daughter Gaia and her grandmother Clothilde Rey. We are the first UK merchant to have the 2021.
