Try tantalising your taste buds with this selection of different, appealing and delicious wines. We have picked out a great selection of Varietal red and white grapes for you that are a little off the beaten track. La Lisse Chenin BlancLanguedoc Limoux, France1 x 75cl bottleThe Chenin Blanc grape variety originally hails from the Loire Valley before it was planted near Limoux in the Haute Vallée de L ’Aude. Here in the south, but importantly planted at altitude on the cooler, abrupt hillside slopes of clay and limestone in the foothills of the Pyrenees, it is one of the latest to be picked, achieving full ripeness yet retaining a refreshing crispness. This ripe yet crunchy fruit gives this wine its freshness, vigour and spine and at the same time its luscious texture which is further complemented and enriched from one third vinified and matured for nine months in seasoned French oak. Hints of caramel and brioche lead to a densely fruity peach palate with great texture and a clean, lifted finish.  Kapuka Sauvignon Blanc Marlborough, New Zealand1 x 75cl bottleThis is fashioned in an easydrinking bistro-style bursting with focused flavour and value – it’s certainly worth your attention. Aromas and flavours of zesty lime, savoury herbs, crisp green apple and hints of honeydew melon wash in waves over the palate finishing up crisp, refreshing and lip-smacking good.Hans Baer Riesling Pfalz, Germany1 x 75cl bottleKnown as the 'King of Grapes', Riesling is a sturdy, late-ripening white wine grape variety, well suited to a myriad of sites throughout the New and Old worlds.Riesling largely produces exquisite dry white wines of unparalleled quality, especially from grapes grown on the steep slopes of Pfalz, in Germany. Think flavours of fresh citrus and granite derived minerals and fresh and fruity, tastes of juicy and yellow apples. Wither Hills Pinot Noir Marlborough, New Zealand 1 x 75cl bottleWither Hills Pinot Noir is filled with ripe concentrated, primary berry fruit characters. Gentle traditional winemaking techniques have resulted in a richly flavoured finely structured wine. Enhanced by maturing in French oak barriques. Yalumba 'YSeries' Cabernet Sauvignon South Australia1 x 75cl bottleSublime varietal, drinking our Y Series Cabernet Sauvignon is a pure and satisfying experience. Not weighed down by excessive oak, the fruit and sense of place shines through. Chateau La Verriere Bordeaux Superieur, France 1 x 75cl bottleThe Bessette family has been making wine for four generations.
