Need some inspiration for what to drink this weekend? Let our team help you! Here's what we're enjoying at the moment.

Domaine Heywang Gewurtztraminer Affenberg 2023, Alsace

Opulent and aromatic the nose is full of the sweet spice, rose and lychee that are the signature of Gewurztraminer, but without any of the cloying bath-bomb notes one sometimes finds. Rich and powerful with an oily texture and a baroque sweetness, there is a certain flamboyance that makes the wine very gastronomic. A classic pair for local dishes like foie gras or quenelles, this also works remarkably well with spicy middle-eastern and Asian cuisine.

C Da Silva Dalva 10-Year-Old Tawny Port, Porto

From an estate which boasts white and Tawny ports as its specialities, this is a blend of very old wines aged in oak barrels with younger cuvées to give an average age of 10 years old. Mixing deep complexity with fresh acidity beautifully, it gives raisins, ripe peach and almonds with a slightly spicy finish.

Anne-Sophie Dubois Fleurie l’Alchimiste 2023, Beaujolais

Delicate, rare, and ethereal, the Alchimiste from young, Burgundy-trained Anne-Sophie Dubois is a must-try. Charming, sweet-fruited, and aromatic, this is a little softer than many Fleuries. Wildly, dangerously drinkable.
