Greywacke Sauvignon Blanc 2020
The Greywacke Sauvignon Blanc is one of Marlborough's most celebrated examples produced by winemaker Kevin Judd, who arguably put this variety on the map! Imagine yellow-fleshed peaches, rock melon and blackcurrant - a sponge cake with lemon icing, chamomile and hints of rose petal – this is a delicately perfumed and deliciously ripe-fruited interpretation of Marlborough sauvignon blanc. The palate is both subtle and textural, showing considerable ripeness and concentration, with a crisp and long, juicy finish.

GAJA - Pioneers of Artisanal Italian Wine
The GAJA family has been growing vines and making wines for five generations and today they continue a tradition that started in 1859 in Piedmont.
Each generation nurtures the dreams and vision of the previous generation and builds and innovates for the next. The hugely charismatic family are respected worldwide and are driven to produce only the very best quality through an exacting attention to detail.
Angelo Gaja has single-handedly established Barbaresco as one of the great appellations of the world and the new generation led by Gaia is determined to continue the legacy.
The wines speak for themselves; Elegant, opulent and true to their origins.
Dyfi Award Winning Premium Craft Gin
Pronounced "Dovey" the Dyfi Distillery is a small, multi-award-winning premium Welsh gin producer that uses wild foraged botanicals from within the UNESCO Biosphere of Dyfi.
Pete Cameron is a hill farmer, forager, and beekeeper who moved to the area 35 years ago to study biology and botany. His brother, Danny Cameron, is a highly experienced wine and spirits professional, and a regular judge at the prestigious Decanter World Wine Awards.
In 2017, the Dyfi Pollination Gin won the Best British Gin trophy at the Great British Food awards, and Dyfi Hibernation Gin was awarded Best New Gin by The Independent newspaper. In 2018, Dyfi Original Gin again took the Best British Gin trophy, making Dyfi the only distillery to win this award for a second time.
These are truly remarkable gins that quite rightly deserve the high praise and recognition they are now garnering...a must try!
Benromach Single Speyside Malt Whisky
Benromach is a traditional Speyside distillery owned by a family of whisky-lovers intent on making single malt the right way with true character.
They keep things simple. A handful of distillers relying entirely on their expertise and senses to make the finest handmade whisky; Speyside single malt matured exclusively in first-fill casks, with a subtly smoky character. It takes just four ingredients – barley, water, yeast and a human touch.
All casks are hand-filled, individually weighed, stencilled by hand and stowed in the traditional dunnage warehouses. Why? Because at Benromach they believe making whisky by hand guarantees genuine character.
Award winning single Speyside Malt Whisky...
The Pinnacle of Oatley's Winemaking...
The Pennant wines stand at the pinnacle of the Oatley family’s winemaking expression with just two varietals being produced: a Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon.
Handmade, produced in very limited quantities and only from the best barrels of the most prized vineyard blocks before earning the Pennant label.
Just 6 barrels were produced of the 2016 Frankland River Cabernet Sauvignon. Brooding and exuberant with dark fruits and complex, luxurious long finish. Blackcurrant characters, soft tannins and all round exceptional quality this is a red wine that will happily reward cellaring for another 15 years.
Fragrant. Layered dark berries. Long Smooth tannins. Elegant.
Biodynamics - Wine On A Spiritual Level
Biodynamic wine production is an approach to winemaking based upon the work of Austrian philosopher Rudolph Steiner. In addition to organic practices biodynamic farmers also consider the positioning and rhythmic influences of the sun, moon, planets and stars as guides for when to prune their vines, plant new vines or pick the fruit.
For winemakers the key principle of biodynamic wine production is totally logical. It makes no sense to extol the virtues on the geology of a vineyard, the unique aspects of its soil (its ‘terroir’) and what that imparts to the wine, if that soil is then totally transformed by a mixture of chemicals, herbicides and fertilisers. Healthy soil dictates healthy vines and experience has shown that biodynamic practices give rise to greater purity and precision in the resulting wines.
Vegan & Vegetarian Friendly Wines
For those who adopt a Vegetarian or Veganism lifestyle, choosing a bottle of wine as your preferred liquid refreshment may not be as straightforward as one would think.
Many would believe that a wine labelled as ‘organic’ or ‘biodynamic’ would be a good starting point, but this winemaking process has no bearing on whether the wine will be suitable for vegetarians or vegans. What is important is how the wine is treated or finished in the final stages of production and it is this which can create a potential moral hazard!
In order to aid the selection process we have put together a collection of wines that are marked as suitable for Vegetarians and Vegans.

Big thank you to Andy and Michelle for their incredible service getting the 2018 wine delivered on time. Thanks once again for the extra bottle to drink to your health and excellent service. Thanks.
I only recently discovered Hic!, but it's obvious that they know what they're doing - one could order blindfolded and be guaranteed that the wines received would be good.

An excellent wine provided at a competitive price by a leading on-line wine merchant. The case arrived on time and was well packed. I would certainly buy from Hic! again - very helpful staff also.
Great wine at a very reasonable price. So much better then the £10 ones.
