Autumn Colours!

Autumn Colours!

Autumn is surely one of the loveliest times of year, and this year seems exceptionally so. Beautiful sunny days and a slight chill in the evening that makes a warm, cosy home even more welcoming. The riverside here in Twickenham is now even more gorgeous with the trees on both sides of the river stunning in their bright autumn foliage. It is almost a natural firework display without the loud noises!

Despite the clocks changing this weekend it is still easy to forget that winter and Christmas is coming, but we are already planning ahead and putting together gift ideas for our customers. This weekend, on Friday the 28th and Saturday the 29th, to launch our new Best Sellers Promotion we will be opening the just released 2011 vintage of our Gascogne Colombelle- always a popular light, refreshing dry white- to say goodbye to summer time, and also to welcome the darker evenings one of our favourite reds the wonderful Rhone from Chateau du Bois de La Garde 2008- a wine for chilly autumn evenings at home.

Try and find the time to call in and try the wines, and to find out more about our annual Wine and Spirits Fair on the 11th and 12th November in Victoria. We can tell you all about it and have a copy of last year's Tasting/Guidebook so you can get an idea of how much there is to taste and to learn about the wines, champagnes and spirits direct from the producers.

Hope to see you soon
