If ever I’m in a bottle shop (or restaurant) and looking for a good dry white to have with a meal, then Clonale is usually a front runner.

There’s citrus, nectarine, bran meal and spice on a tight, light, dry flinty palate - Chablis styling (if not style). Balanced and lively with a dry grapefruity finish. What I like most is that there’s no excess and yet no shortage of flavour. It’s really good and drinks beautifully. Emphatic approval on all fronts. GARY WALSH

This is typical of the delicate, non-malolactic, dare we say Chablis style favoured by the winemaker. It?s very restrained and probably needs a few months to bloom in the bottle. It does have great finesse and balance ? fruit dominant and with a piercing intensity and linearity that enables it to go superbly with food. Serve it with any white-fleshed fish, pan-fried in butter. RALPH KYTE-POWELL
