Other French Whites
BERGERAC Sec 2005 Ch. Richard ORGANIC
Fresh and clean. Similar in style to a white Bordeaux.

Other French Whites
DOMAINE DE BRAU Blanc 2005 Vin de Pays d'Oc ORGANIC
Well made southern French white from an interesting mix of grapes: Chardonnay and Roussanne.

Rhone Wines
CHÂTEAUNEUF DU PAPE (Rouge) 1999 Domaine de Marcoux ORGANIC
This wine ages magnificently. A lighter, less beefy style, but wears its 14% alcohol with elegance and balance. A bottle of this tasted recently displayed tannins that are still very firm - this needs keeping a while yet.

Red Burgundy (and a Rosé)
"LE SANG ROUGE DE LA TERRE" 2005 ORGANIC
AC Bourgogne Grand Ordinaire
Domaine Bernard van Berg
Extraordinary wine: amazingly sweet entry (indicating ripeness), smoky, spicy flavour, with wonderful full finish. Could do with cellaring, though I like it now!
