Frist get together of this group at the this location in some months and great to be back on the horse. The wines showed universally well and there was so little to choose between them.
Enjoyed the flatbreads with our anti pasti starter and really enjoyed the steak and cheese courses
Huge thanks to the team for their lovely wines and patience with my white Californian Bordeaux blend ringer. Look forward to more of these in 2024.
Also big thanks to the team at Piccolino who did a great job.

This starts with some brown sugar and a suggestion of sweated leak. Really begins to blossom in the glass with beeswax, some butterscotch, some lime zest and some wet wool. Texturally we are absolutely in Bordeaux white territory, really good length and a nettly interest too. My bottle served blind and very pleased with how it showed. Apparently 75% Semillon and 25% Sauvignon Blanc.
