The new Berry’s Own Selection Côtes du Rhône is from the superlative 2010 vintage. The wine is a special blend, made in conjunction with la Famille Perrin, all from Domaine fruit, with equal shares of Syrah and Grenache. An elegant, elegant wine.

New Zealand’s brisk maritime climate, long sunny days and free draining soils are ideal for Sauvignon Blanc. Winemaker Hermann Seifried marries soil, climate and grape variety to emphasise the ‘terroir’ of his vinyards. Aromas of ripe gooseberries, nettle and mown grass precede a crisp and bone-dry palate, where tropical fruit is superbly balanced by a lovely freshness. Delicious.

Whilst Berry’s continues to grow and prosper, above all, it appreciates that wine is meant to be enjoyed and that all wine knowledge in the world can be distilled into one simple question - “Is it good to drink?”
Berry Bros & Rudd was established in 1698 at 3 St James’s Street, London and is still owned and managed by the Berry family. Berry’s first supplied wine to the British Royal Family during King George III’s reign (about the same time Hall & Woodhouse started supplying beer to the Duke of Wellington’s troops…). Today, Berry’s holds two Royal Warrants for H.M. the Queen and H.R.H. The Prince of Wales.
What could be more perfectly festive in the Queen’s jubilee year than superb wine from the cellars of Berry Bros and Rudd, vintners to the royal family?
