Crisp and crunchy rosé with plenty of white nectarine, peach and a slice of orange that’s finishes dry. Lay out the cheeseboard in whatever ordered or chaotic arrangement you're feeling, just make sure the Mini Mi Breban is chilled.

Mini Mi Breban Rose 2023

Fleshy ripe and melony with a slippery, slightly rich texture that oozes out of the bottle. Still fresh and elegant enough to go perfectly with falafel, tabouleh and even dolma. Gosh, we love dolma. Sounds like this chill day you’re having is going to get brilliant.

Amo Vino Gianco Grenache Blanc 2023

Rich with earthy fruits and soft with raisins on the edge, it all tastes as if pressed into leather. This’ll come into its own this winter, but with the weather being so… undecided, you won’t have to wait long for a cool night to enjoy it.

Luzador Los Andreses Tinto Grenache Tempranillo 2022

Grown on limestone and clay before 3 months on lees for a pillowy expression that’s full of florals and kept fresh with some nectarine notes and a little spice. Any excuse to drink Soave is a good one. Enjoy with one and a half bowls of pasta broccoli.

Mainente Pigno Soave Classico 2023

Colour and fruit in abundance for plenty of depth and a lot of super bright squishy berries that are kept savoury with just a pinch of aniseed-like spice. Serve it cool, not cold for the best of times.

David Morgan Quiet Wine Morgan Syrah 2023

A Sauvy B and Chardy blend that sees a short fermentation period and comes through with plenty of texture. The wine to bring when you don’t know the menu, or the vibe because it’s a little cuisine chameleon and great time unto itself.

David Morgan Quiet Wines Bianco Floreale 2024

We won’t shut up about David Morgan’s wines – despite the name. The guy’s got a lot of talent and we love his aesthetic and little quips. Of course, his wines are on point too, this Sauvy B. is linear and swaddled in herbs. Give it a good swirl for full enjoyment.

David Morgan Quiet Wine Sauvignon Blanc 2023

Torn sage, ripe mulberry and berries, here’s a full-blooded Shiraz, vibrant and plush with a friendly (juicy) side. Ticks all the Shiraz boxes without ever scaring anyone off – in other words, balanced.

Curator Wine Co Hamlets Shiraz 2023

Doozy Half & Half Iced Tea Lemonade

Doozy Half & Half Iced Tea with Raspberry

Bright, lovely and age-worthy. It’s Chianti from a master and vines that average 40 years in age. Look for a delicate cherries and plums that flow with some savoury spices and a flick of tobacco. There's also some crisp acidity that’ll cut right through a Tuscan t-bone, or Bistecca all Fiorentina for those of you who "parla Italiano". Yum.

Rodano Viacosta Chianti Classico Riserva 2019

Schneider Weisse Tap 7 Original Hefeweisse 500ml

Sailors Grave Commocean Fruited Gose

We hit the coast after eight days walking and swam all afternoon. Renato showed me a cave where there was a crate of Solfare Bianco Magnums! Every sip was vibrant and fresh with citrus, plus a gentle oxidative note. The beach was empty so we stayed overnight. I've never slept so well or found that place again, lucky Blackhearts sell the wine though.

Passofonduto Solfare Bianco Grillo Cataratto 2023

Deliciously fresh Italian Bianco. Like every Abruzzese, there’s a savoury amount of bitterness here, plus some chamomile and a lemon pith for approachability and charm. Perfect with salty beef skewers and radicchio.

La Valentina Trebbiano 2023

Lunaria Charisma Trebbiano 2022

Soft fruits and a really broad appeal. Like a trip to Sicily, this would suit 99% of people so you should gift it if you're feeling generous, and goes well with light, al olio pastas, and sardines on toast.

Caruso & Minini Frappo Rosé 2022

Off-dry Riesling that hits perfectly in the afternoon, don't bother looking too hard for the most idyllic gardens or waiting till golden hour, once it’s open, it’s all going to be about the bottle. Brimming with red apples and a little peachy fuzz – If you're afraid of getting a rotten apple, don't go to the barrel, get it from August Kesseler.

August Kesseler Five O'Clock Riesling 2022

Snap of red apple and blackcurrant with some twiggy tannin grip but nothing like a traditional Nebbiolo. This is light and gluggable. Drink slightly chilled with just about anything, anywhere and with anyone!
