Santenay ‘En Bievau’, Domaine Bart
£29.95
Pierre Bart is the sixth generation at Domaine Bart. Since 2009 he has run the domaine and its 22 hectares of vines
together with his mother and his uncle. There is a strong focus on Marsannay, coupled with a few parcels in Fixin,
Gevrey-Chambertin, Chambolle-Musigny and Santenay. Pierre’s grandmother was from the same family as
Domaine Bruno Clair and inherited part of the vines when it was divided up. This is where the Bonnes Mares and
Chambertin Clos de Beze parcels originated from. When Pierre’s uncle arrived at the domain, he then increased the
size of the domain, mainly in Marsannay. He chose to improve quality, both in terms of equipment and in terms of
winemaking.
This Pinot Noir from a parcel in Santenay, is great value when compared to nearby village wines (Gevrey-Chambertin, Morey St Denis etc). Proper Red Burgundy that goes beautifully with a ripe Brie-style cheese such as Baron Bigod.

Lion’s Tooth Shiraz/Riesling, Dandelion Vineyards
Dandelion Vineyards is the venture of self-titled ‘typist’ Zar Brooks and his winemaking wife Elena, with wines made from the Barossa and Eden Valleys, Fleurieu, the Adelaide Hills and McLaren Vale.
Nick Stock, one of Australia’s leading journalists, has described Dandelion as follows: “Brooks has teamed up with his winemaking wife Elena, a woman whose talents are outweighed only by her tolerance, in an exciting new venture called Dandelion Vineyards. The approach is remarkably simple and sees Elena making wine from a suite of beautiful old vineyards across that blessed curve that runs from the Barossa, up through the Eden Valley and Adelaide Hills and down into McLaren Vale.”
From this vineyard, Elena co-ferments an almost forgotten but timeless blend of Shiraz and Riesling to enhance the wine's perfume and palate.This has always been one of our most popular wines, year after year it delivers amazing value for money. Rich and intense, it is impressive without being too much. There is balance which makes it very, very drinkable.
