Olly Smith

"An absolute gem with delicate almondy aromas but packed with power on the palate" Champagne Herbert Beaufort Grand Cru Champagne "Full of flavour and with a lively long-lasting complexity. A wine to make your spirits soar" £27 pb at Marks and Spencer
Ridgeview Grosvenor Blanc de Blance 2007 (England) 
Wow! One of the stand-out wines at the recent English Wine Producers trade & Press tasting. SO much zing, so much complexity. I'm thrilled this is grown and made in Sussx. It's stellar fizz with brisk citrus flavours and world-class complexity. £24.95, www.slurp.co.uk


Picpoul de Pinet Prestige 2010 Dom Guillaume Cabrol (France)
Superb, crisp white wine that fells simple, balanced and fresh. If you've every enjoyed Muscadet, get your chops around this southern French Equivalent. Marvellous with shellfish and a superb aperitif(Two bottles at Majestic at £6.99) - a person favourite of the Wine Ranger
