Domaine Henry Pelle CLOS DES BLANCHAIS Blanc Menetou-Salon Loire
From a single vineyard site, this lovely, complex wine is partially aged in oak. While delicious when young, it gains richness and secondary tropical flavours with age. Clos des Blanchais, from 40-year-old vines, has an astonishingly pure mineral nose , grape-pith and crystallised lemon on the palate, beautiful persistence and a rapier thrust of acidity. (6 x 75 cl)

Domaine Henry Pelle MOROGUES Rouge Menetou-Salon Loire
This red from the commune of Morogues is made from Pinot Noir and has a clear garnet colour, not much darker than a dark rose. It shows rather vegetal green-tomato aromas over vinous red fruit at first, and hits the palate with a lean and herbal first impression; but a little time in the glass sees the nose add pleasant spicy notes of cinnamon and cloves, and the flavour develops full, almost plush red fruit with plenty of lemony acidity to give it structure. (6 x 75 cl)
