Wines
Greywacke Sauvignon Blanc 2022

Distinctive, succulent and wonderfully complex, with honeysuckle, honey-preserved ginger, creamy lemon curd, ripe mango and floral notes, plus stone fruit flavors on a rich, smooth and mouthwateringly juicy frame. Reveals hints of spices that linger on the long, expressive finish.

A bright, snappy white, featuring generous flavors of ripe kiwifruit and melon, with notes of chalk and stone, backed by accents of tangerine peel, jasmine and ground ginger.
San Felice Chianti Classico 2016
94 points WS
Expressive and smooth, this hits all the right notes, with pure black cherry, black currant and violet flavors. Touches of earth, iron and tobacco add complexity. Shows fine harmony and length.

A voluptuous, vibrant blend of 55% Corvina, 25% Corvinone, 15% Rondinella and 5% Oseleta grapes sourced from the Veneto wine region. Perfumed with ripe dark plum, baked cherry pie, anise, oak spice, savoury and soul-satisfying. Tannins are structured and pleasantly grippy.
