NOTES FROM THE SOLENT CELLAR New Year Wine Resolutions for Wine Lovers! After the busy festive period, January is a quieter month in the shop, a time for planning tastings and events for the year ahead. We don’t take part in the craze that is ‘dry January’, but we look for other new year resolutions to expand our knowledge and experience of different wines. Below are a few ideas for you to explore this year. English Wine - With the reviews and reputation of English wine getting better and better, and with last years fantastic growing season we are very excited with new developments of this homegrown industry! Our most popular selling fizz is from the Dorset based Langham Estate, who craft terroir driven sparkling wines using grapes only grown in their own vineyards. They have a low intervention approach to both grape growing and wine production. Even closer to home, ‘Charlie Herring’ has a vineyard in a small walled garden just outside Lymington. Winemaker Tim Phillips practices organic viticulture and natural Charlie Herring winery winemaking which result in some authentic wines that are seriously impressive! Production for his wine is small, but he is also making a very interesting beer (made from wild hops) and cider from the orchard adjacent to the vineyard. Explore Different Grape Varieties - Expand your wine drinking horizons and try a new grape variety, or even a familiar one from a different wine growing region or Country. If you’ve tried Albarino from Spain before, look for Alvarinho from Portugal or even some great examples from New Zealand or South Africa. At the moment we are very excited about exploring the wines from the Savoie and Jura region. Try a delicious Chardonnay from the Jura blindfolded and it could be mistaken for one from Burgundy. Our most popular Savoie wine is made from the grape Jacquere which is vibrant, floral and refreshing! We are always receiving small parcels of new wines, so do pop in and we can help your explore different options. Visit a Vineyard - 0ur holidays tend to always be based around a wine region. It is so important for us to meet the growers and taste the wines where they are produced. If you’re heading to a region that produces wine, we urge you to do the same! It can be such an eye opener to see how much hard work goes into each bottle that we so often just pop and pour without much of a thought. Attend a Wine Tasting - The best way to expand your wine horizons is to come along to one of our tastings or events that we plan throughout the year. We hope there is something to appeal to everyone, from the more formal instore tutored tastings, a ‘pop-up’ restaurant in the shop with wines to match the food, to the more informal 'Wine themed garden events will start around Easter' food and wine events we host in the shop and garden during the Spring and Summer. The best way to find out about these is to sign up to our newsletters online or in store or follow us on social media! So here’s to a New Year and exploring the exciting world of wine!
