Bilbul Road Reserve Chardonnay - £33.34
Price on 16-Jun-08 from Laithwaites.
Delicious, Spring-fresh Chardonnay named after Riverina pioneer William Bull who settled there in the 1890s and dug a 134 foot well which saved the region's population and livestock during extensive droughts at the end of the century. The De Bortoli name has been prominent in Australian wine since the company was established in 1928. The founder's grandson Dean De Bortoli made an international name for himself - and the Riverina wine region - by creating the now legendary Noble One Botrytis Semillon in the 1980s. De Bortoli was named 'Wine Company of the Year' by Winestate (Australia's Decanter magazine equivalent) in 2005, 2006 and again in 2007. Made by senior winemaker John Coughlan from grapes picked in the cool of the night to preserve freshness. Pale gold with bags of peach and nectarine fruit. Rich, ripe, fresh melon flavours follow. Serve chilled with chicken or pork.

Chateau l'Ancienne Tuilerie - £34.14
Price on 16-Jun-08 from Laithwaites.
We stumbled upon this cellar in the early 90s whilst looking for red wines. What we discovered was a cache of great white wines that had been quietly winning medals of a number of years. Winemaker Michel Mouret admits, with some pride, that he works 7 days a week - his family home is attached to the winery and we're sure that at night if he put an ear to the wall he could hear the tanks fermenting. This fresh, zesty Sauvignon is very food-friendly - delicious served with goat's cheese salad, asparagus or grilled fish.
