White Wine

White wine covers a lot of ground. Some bottles are sharp and citrusy, waking up your palate before you've even swallowed. Others have spent time in oak barrels and come out creamy, rich, ready for a long dinner.

Our collection has both, and everything in between.

After something elegant before you eat? Or maybe a refined bottle to see you through the night? Either way, there's something here.

Styles & Categories of White Wine

Helps to start with what you usually go for.

Crisp & Refreshing - Sauvignon Blanc, unoaked Chardonnay. Bright, clean, sharp.

Full-Bodied / Oaked - Chardonnay that's seen a barrel, Viognier too. Texture, weight, a finish that stays with you.

Aromatic & Floral - Riesling, Gewürztraminer when you're after something expressive. Perfume, character, bit different.

Light & Fresh - Pinot Grigio, Vermentino that don't need food alongside them. Just work.

Exploring White Wine Varieties

Every grape does something a bit different.

Sauvignon Blanc - Sharp, lively, citrus and gooseberry all over it. Sometimes you get a grassy note. Properly refreshing.

Chardonnay - Does two things. No oak and it's mineral, clean, crisp. Oak and you get richness, butter, vanilla notes.

Riesling - Smells incredible. Dry white wine through to slightly sweet, always floral and citrus-driven. Goes surprisingly well with spicy dishes.

Pinot Grigio (Pinot Gris) - Light, approachable. Pear, apple, nothing complicated. Just drinks easily.

Viognier - Fuller, almost perfumed. Apricot, honeysuckle, bit of weight to it. Textured.

Semillon - Underrated. Makes some seriously age-worthy stuff, particularly blended with Sauvignon Blanc. Real depth there.

White Wine Regions & Grape Varieties

These come from places that really know their stuff. Burgundy, the Loire Valley. Soave and Alto Adige in Italy. Marlborough in New Zealand does Sauvignon Blanc better than most.

Then there's Rueda in Spain, Germany's Riesling regions, Hunter Valley over in Australia.

You'll see the usual names - Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, Pinot Grigio, Viognier, Semillon. Few less common ones thrown in that are genuinely worth trying.

White Wine Pairing & Serving Recommendations

  • Sharp, crisp bottles make seafood taste incredible.

  • Heavier ones go with roast chicken, anything creamy, richer fish dishes.

  • Chill them to 8–12°C. Cold, but not Arctic. Keeps them balanced without killing the flavour.

  • Aromatic styles drink best young. Oak-aged stuff often gets better if you leave it alone for a bit.

  • Some of the best white dessert wines include Sauternes from Bordeaux, late-harvest Rieslings from Germany, and Tokaji Aszú from Hungary.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do white wines age well?

Some really do. Good Chardonnay and Semillon, especially if they've seen oak, develop over a few years into something special.

Lighter ones though, drink them young. That's when they're best.

How should I store an opened bottle?

Stopper in, fridge. Two days, maybe three. Assuming you don't finish it first.
