9 CHAMPAGNE & SPARKLING WINES While Monty Python argued over what the Romans did for Britain (actually Judea), there is no disputing what they did for the towns of the Champagne Region. They came, they saw & they mined the area s chalk. And they left behind them miles of underground galleries & cellars which now house millions of bottles of this exquisite elixir. The Champagne is divided into five sub-regions: Côtes de Blancs; Montagne de Reims; Vallée de la Marne; Côtes de Sezanne & the Aube. Every listed house has vineyards in these sub-regions & grows three permitted grape varieties:, Pinot Noir & Pinot Meunier. Once the grapes are harvested towards the end of September or beginning of October, wines are made & must remain in the Roman cellars for at least three years. After this extended rest in the cellars, Champagne reaches our tables; so enjoy it in good company. This is the most sociable of drinks after all. Grape varieties include:, Glera, Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, Reichensteiner, Schonburger CHAMPAGNE Mercier, Brut, Epernay, N.V. Mercier, Brut Rosé, Epernay, N.V. G.H. Mumm, Reims, N.V.

Glera Torre del Gall, Brut, Reserva, Cava, Spain, 2011 Macabeo, Xarel-lo, Parellada Carr Taylor, Brut, Sussex, England, N.V. Reichensteiner & Schonburger Carr Taylor is unique amongst British sparkling wines. We like it because it s as good as any comparably-priced champagne, with its own very distinctive (let s call it English) flavour. The fruit notes are quite exquisite. It s a very good fizz, with nice little bubbles from, yes, East Sussex. George reckons that if you didn t know this wasn t French, you wouldn t ask. Since the vineyard was founded, it has won over 130 awards including: Gold, The British Bottlers Institute, 2012 Bronze, International Wine Challenge, 2011 Cloudy Bay, Pelorus, Brut, Marlborough, New Zealand, N.V. & Pinot Noir Nyetimber, Classic Cuvée, West Sussex, England, 2009, Pinot Meunier & Pinot Noir 22.70 25.00 30.40 40.50 42.50

15 INTENSE & POWERFUL RED WINES These wines will pack a punch. That is a guarantee. When it comes to matching food & wine, the most important factor, more crucial than flavours or colours, is the weight of the wine.

17 ROSÉ WINES Rosé is big wine news. The success story of the last five years. They re increasingly popular. We have to say they re increasingly very good. But the million dollar question is, why the massive increase in popularity? Guess what? It s also partly down to global warming: chilled rosé is perfect in hotter weather. It s lovely to drink on its own. It s also a great companion with foods, particularly al fresco dining. Rosé works well with foods that suit both white and red wines. We say: give rosé a try and make your own mind up. Grape varieties include: Garnacha, Pinot Grigio, Tempranillo, Zinfandel FOOD MATCHING GUIDELINES Salmon, hard cheese, cold meats, light sauce dishes, summer fruit desserts Bulletin, California, USA, 2012 Zinfandel Statua, Sicily, Italy, 2012 Pinot Grigio Bodegas Corral, Don Jacobo, Rioja, La Rioja, Spain, 2012 Garnacha & Tempranillo Commended, International Wine Challenge, 2011 17.20 18.90 23.50

19 BIN END WINES WHITES Bin end wines are special purchases, where stocks are limited. They are the end of lines and particular vintages from wholesalers and specialist importers. Because of this they are often exceptional value. George chooses wines which tickle his fancy. Top wines from top producers - personal favourites. The section includes some very fine and rare wines. Well worth a look or a personal recommendation. He s included a few notes to inform your selection. These cover a much broader price range than the standard list. They re also one of the things which make the Chop House different. As the Dutch say, op is op. When they re gone, they re gone. Domaine la Croix Belle, Pays d Oc, Languedoc-Roussillon, France, 2012 Vermentino & Sauvignon Blanc Masseria Trajone, Frascati, Lazio, Italy, 2011 Malvasia Bianca & Bombino It's light, unoaked, crisp and zesty. Aromas of apples, pears and white flowers unfurl in the glass and fresh, ripe fruits fill the palate. Its brisk, racy finish and crisp acidity makes this white a winner with seafood, fish, and light pasta dishes. J.Moreau et Fils, Vin de France, France, 2011 Vermentino Les Combes, Côtes du Ventoux, Rhône Valley, France, 2010 Grenache, Viognier & Clairette Veramonte, Reserva, Casablanca Valley, Aconcagua, Chile, 2011 Caruso & Minini, Terre di Guimara, Marsala, Sicily, Italy, 2011 Grecanico It s a cracking wine. Listed after my visit to Sicily in 2010, - George Bergier Cuatro Rayas, Agricola Castillana, Rueda, Castilla y Leon, Spain, 2012 Sauvignon Blanc Durbanville Hills, Durbanville, Tygerberg, Coastal Region, Western Cape, South Africa, 2012 Sauvignon Blanc This Sauvignon Blanc boasts seamlessly layered flavours ranging from tropical fruit to fig, lime, guava and gooseberry, leading up to a crisp finish. Pale green in colour, this wine is a combination of fruit flavours and green pepper with a crisp acidity and full mouth-feel. On the nose, it boasts a delightful combination of papaya, grapefruit, lime and winter melon with green fig and prickly pear flavours coming to the surface as the wine changes temperature. Durbanville Hills, Durbanville, Tygerberg, Coastal Region, Western Cape, South Africa, 2012 Domaine la Croix Belle, Côtes de Thongue, South West France, France, 2012 19.95 20.00 21.95 22.95 23.45 23.45 23.95 26.95 26.95 27.00

20 Tabali, Reserva Especial, Limari Valley, Coquimbo, Chile, 2009 From one of Chile's most unique vineyard sites, located on a chalky river terrace just 12km from the Pacific coast, ideal for creation of cool-climate styles. This premium comes from the best parts of the vineyard and is oak-aged for 10 months. Bastianich, Vigne Orsone, Friuli Colli Orientali, Italy, 2012 Friulano Italian cousin of Sauvignon Blanc - Friulano (Sauvignon Vert) tastes like a crossing between famous Sauvignon Blanc and even more famous Pinot Grigio. Very pleasant, soft-textured white with pretty varietal notes of ripe peaches, mint and flowers... good length... terrific value. St. Cosme, Little James, Vin de Pays d Oc, Languedoc-Roussillon, France, 2012 Sauvignon Blanc & Viognier EU Producer of the Year, SWA, 2012 Leiras, Rias Baixas, Galicia, Spain, 2012 Albariño Bronze, Decanter World Wine Awards, 2011 Domaine Rijckaert, Les Sarres, Côtes du Jura, Jura, France, 2010 Domaine des Marronniers, Chablis 1er Cru Montmains, Burgundy, France, 2010 Petaluma, Piccadilly Valley, Adelaide Hills, South Australia, Australia, 2009 Gold, Decanter World Wine Awards, 2012 Louis Jadot, Puligny Montrachet, Côte de Beaune, Burgundy, France, 2007 The Grand Cru vineyards of Puligny Montrachet are regarded as some of the best in the world, let alone Burgundy. Bright gold in colour, long flavour, succulent & intense. A great wine from a great producer, it has all the hallmarks of a truly world class. Odd though it may seem, this wine represents great value. I just love this wine! GB. 27.00 27.50 28.45 34.45 40.45 50.45 51.45 84.50

21 BIN ENDS WINES REDS Caruso & Minini, Terre di Guimara, Marsala, Sicily, Italy, 2012 Frappato Domaine Michele Bettili, Hesaurum, Veneto, Italy, 2009 Corvina & Cabernet Sauvignon Miguel Torres, Mas Rabell, Penedès, Catalunya, Spain, 2012 Grenache Gaston Hochar, Château Musar Mosaic, Bekaa Valley, Lebanon, 2010 Syrah, Cinsault & Cabernet Sauvignon Château Musar was established in the Bekaa Valley in 1930 by Gaston Hochar, although it has been run by his two sons Serge & Ronald since 1959. Just north of Beirut, this location was ravaged by civil war & placed demands on the family that most winemakers do not experience. Battle raged around the vines throughout the 1983 harvest & Serge had to be smuggled in by a small boat to make his wine. Similar conditions were endured in 1988 & 1989. Deep scarlet in colour, the nose displays mature red cherry, blackcurrant, tropical fruit & violets. On the palate, the velvety soft tannins reveal ripe red cherries, pear & blackberries, mixed with peppery cinnamon spice & chocolate on the long finish. A nice match for our corned beef hash, liver & bacon or sausages & mash. St. Cosme, Little James, Vin de Pays d Oc, Languedoc-Roussillon, France, N.V. Grenache Pedra Basta, Alentejano, Portugal, 2009 Trincadeira, Aragonez, Alicante Bouschet & Cabernet Sauvignon Richard Mayson, the owner of this winery & a really good friend of mine, is regarded as one of the world s leading experts on Port & Madeira. Made in Southern Portugal from the Aragonez grape, in very small quantities, this is their answer to Spain s Tempranillo. In fact, George believes this is his best wine. It s really BIG. A peppery, spicy, massively full-bodied wine, perfect with meat dishes & heavy sauces. Once tasted, you will come back to it again & again. Alain Jaume et Fils, Haut du Brun, Côtes du Rhône, Rhône Valley, France, 2011 Grenache, Syrah & Mourvèdre A wine for the brave. It carries a big punch: rich & spicy but still easy drinking. Bodegas Corral, Don Jacobo, Reserva, Rioja, La Rioja, Spain, 2005 Tempranillo, Garnacha& Mazuelo Rioja produces Spain's flagship red wines. Don Jacobo is not the most popular wine from Rioja in UK (yet) but in Spain it s a star. You can find it on most wine lists at Michelin star establishments. A wine spends about 25 months in oak barrels in cool cellars before being bottled and then aged for 2 more years. It is traditional in style with the developed fruit you would expect from a mature Rioja from one of the region's better producers. 23.45 25.45 25.45 25.50 28.45 29.50 34.50 40.45

22 Gaston Hochar, Château Musar, Bekaa Valley, Lebanon, 2003 Cabernet Sauvignon, Carignan & Cinsault The legendary Lebanese wine from the legendary winemaker who lost only two (yes, just two) vintages to the long-running civil war. No one can say that the Hochar family are not truly dedicated to their craft. French farmers might be militant sometimes, but they don t really compare to Hezbollah, do they? This is one of their best vintages & features their most appealing blend. I know because I ve tasted them all back to 1985 GB. The perfect match for all lamb dishes, from Shepherds Pie to rack of lamb. Baroness Philippine de Rothschild, Domaine de Baron Arques, Limoux, France, 2004 Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Syrah, Grenache & Malbec This is intended to become the Opus One of France. Its Bordeaux-style blend is very deep & dark with a violet tint, opens on fresh blackberry & bilberry aromas with touches of strawberry & cherry. Round & smooth in the mouth, it has a rich, wellrounded structure & a silky mid-palate, elegantly combining distinguished tannins with generous flavours. The highly expressive finish, full, powerful & pleasantly textured, is characteristic of a wine with considerable potential. George tasted this vintage last Christmas. It is obviously now reaching its peak. It was simply stunning. Part of a barrel exclusively reserved by Baroness Philippine de Rothschild for the chop houses. 42.50 50.50 BIN ENDS WINES - ROSÉ Rosé de l Hospitalet, Vin de Pays d Oc, Languedoc-Roussillon, 24.50 France, 2010 Grenache BIN END WINES - SPARKLING Hush Heath Estate, Balfour, Brut Rosé, Kent, England, 2008 Pinot Noir, & Pinot Meunier A beautiful example of an English rosé, this wine has a wonderful colour to it. The palate begins with a creamy mousse which opens into a light fruitiness. Excellent balance of fruit & acidity which makes this a serious contender for one of the top wines in the country.
