Cass Business School Wine List - 2008

Sparkling Wine Prosecco £15.00 A brilliant straw yellow and an extremely fine, vivacious mousse in a wine with aromas of wildflowers and almonds. These are balanced on the palate by notes of pear and a refreshing crispy acidity. Graham Beck Brut NV £25.00 Robertson, South Africa. This is a benchmark fizz with a beautiful harmony between lengthy Chardonnay and fragrant Pinot Noir. The result is a sparkling wine with a fine mousse giving freshness and finesse, elegant ripe fruit and light yeast aromas, and a rich creamy complexity on the palate. Graham Beck Brut Rosé 2005 £25.00 Robertson, South Africa. Lots of ripe strawberries from the Pinot Noir on the nose with a creamy Chardonnay fruit playing second-fiddle. The palate explodes with raspberry fruit together with sherbety apples and biscuit notes on the finish. Nicolas Feuillatte Brut Particulière NV £30.00 Epernay, France. The nose shows flowers and fruit with an emphasis on white fruit such as apples and pears, with hints of almond and hazelnut. A crisp entry on the palate, well balanced with a soft finish. Moët et Chandon Brut Imperial NV £50.00 Epernay, France. Pale yellow in colour with a green hue, delicately vinous with a lime and vine blossom attack. The palate is medium bodied with predominantly Pinot characteristics and an elegant finish. Bollinger Special Cuvée NV £53.00 Ay, France. Three years aging gives the wine the necessary time to achieve balance and liberates a full range of aromas. Complex developed fruit and biscuity aroma and flavours with a long elegant finish.

House Wines Terre Forti Trebbiano Chardonnay 2006 £10.50 Italy. Soft, gentle Italian white with just a hint of off-dry apple and peach fruit alongside the bright lemon and lime. Delicate and delicious, it is a perfect anytime white. La Serre Sauvignon Blanc 2006 £10.50 Languedoc, France. Bright, crisp and grassy, this wine is the archetypal old world Sauvignon Blanc. It is at the same dry and refreshing whilst having an intensity of lemon and green apple flavours. Terre Forti Sangiovese 2006 £10.50 Italy Violets, cherries and almonds on the nose with a classic Italian palate: morello cherries, dark plums, fine tannins and fresh acidity. La Serre Merlot 2006 £10.50 Languedoc, France. Young, juicy and full of soft, easy-going plum and blackberry fruit. Perfect on its own or with food.

Rich tropical aromas of pear, guava and ripe yellow stone fruits jump out of the glass Chenin Blanc. The abundance of flavours carries through on the well-structured palate. Delicato Family Vineyards Chardonnay 2005 £15.00 California, USA. Ripe and juicy style of Hollywood Chardonnay with plenty of crowd-pleasing juicy pineapple, peach and citrus fruit flavours and a healthy dose of creamy vanilla. Soft, fresh and very drinkable

Red Wine Libertad Malbec Shiraz 2007 £11.50 Mendoza, Argentina. Ripe, juicy red with smooth tannins and bags of fruit. Raspberry, violets and blackberries dominate the nose with a touch of vanilla enhancing the berries on the palate. Deakin Estate Shiraz 2005 £13.50 Victoria, Australia. Deep purple red colour. The wine has ripe plum and liquorice aromas with white pepper and charred oak overtones. The palate is full and rich with concentrated plum fruit flavours, peppery overtones, integrated oak and firms tannins, following through to a soft, drying finish. Domaine Cheval-Blanc Signe 2006 £15.00 Bordeaux, France. Delicious, soft claret with restrained, elegant blackcurrant and plum fruit on both nose and palate backed up by savoury, juicy tannins and fresh acidity. Sweet Wine Ch. Loupiac-Gaudiet 2002 37.5cl £13.25 Bordeaux, France. Sweet, medium-bodied wine with luscious marmalade, honey and orange notes with some moreish barley sugar flavours too. Never syrupy or cloying, it has a lovely fresh finish with clean citrus acidity.
