Holmes RICHMONDPLAINS Chardonnay Nelson NZ
Description: Organic. The 2004 has a perfectly balance fruit-driven unoaked stlye. The 2003 is oaked.

This means the 2003 is vegan suitable, but the 2004 is neither vegetarian nor vegan suitable. (12 x 75 cl) Price: £115.90

Holmes RICHMONDPLAINS Sauvignon Blanc Nelson NZ
Description: Organic. Intense, classic Sauvignon from the underrated Nelson region on the South Island. Ripe gooseberry fruit combines with tingly acidity, to deliver a wonderfully fresh and vibrant wine in true New Zealand style. "One of the most vividly-flavoured wines I have encountered for a long time. It is startlingly. It is one of those lovely Sauvignon Blancs that come from New Zealand and it smells of cut grass, so vivid, it almost moves into the sort of spilled petrol arena. gloriously fruity. It is a glass and a half. Lovely stuff." Jilly Goolden, Food and Drink, BBC2. (12 x 75 cl) Price: £133.88
