2 x Alsace: Léon Beyer Crémant d'Alsace Brut£0.00
Elegant, dry methode traditionelle sparkling wine produced from Pinot Blanc and Auxerrois. Something of a local secret, 90% of Cremant d'Alsace is consumed in La France. It is easy to see why they're keen to hang on to it.
2 x Menetou Salon: Domaine Jean Teiller Blanc 2018£0.00
The Teillers' Menetou Salon Blanc is a firm favourite chez Yapp.The atypically ripe, juicy style of Loire Sauvignon Blanc is almost certainly influenced by the year that Patricia Teiller and husband Olivier Luneau (who now run the estate) spent winemaking in New Zealand.
2 x Lirac: Domaine Maby 'La Fermade' Rosé 2019£0.00
The Domaine Maby Lirac rosé is made from Rhône staples Grenache and Cinsault. It is more full-bodied than many rosé wines, with a bouquet of bright berry fruit and a full and fruity palate with undertones of rosehips and redcurrants. It's a great food wine, pair it with a broad variety of foods from salmon to charcuterie, and it also lends itself well to Oriental cuisine.
2 x Saumur Champigny: Domaine Filliatreau 'Vieilles Vignes' 2017£0.00
Big, bountiful, gastronomic Cabernet Franc - a rich and powerful wine displaying herbaceous aromas. It has a wonderful core of ripe cassis flavours and a fine structure of tannins. It should be decanted before drinking and can mature happily for up to a decade. Indeed, we are so enamoured of it that we ship it in half-bottles and magnums to cover every conceivable occasion!
2 x Gigondas: Domaine Saint Gayan 'Origine' 2015£0.00
"The lightest and most approachable of the three cuvées from Domaine Saint Gayan, the 2015 Gigondas Origine showcases cherries and red plums, medium to full body and supple tannins, picking up a dusting of cinnamon on the long finish. 89-91/100. Drink 2017 - 2025."

2 x Côtes du Rhône: Domaine Saint Gayan 'Trescartes' 2017£0.00
Yapp is known as a Rhône specialist and this is our flagship Côtes du Rhône, so it ought to be very good ...and it is! Spice, jammy fruit and a rich silky finish. This Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre blend (called 'Trescartes') exemplifies all that is great about the increasingly-popular Southern Rhône reds.
