Christian Audigier Deluxe Wine Hamper
An indulgent, premier selection blending the finest of Scottish comestibles with the finest of French boutique wine; with luxury foodstuffs from the Cairnsmhor bakery and a range of fine wines from the Montpeyroux Estates, conceived in collaboration with French designer Christian Audigier; offering a unique partnership of fine wine and striking, contemporary design.
This selection comprises:
Cairnsmhor Luxury All Butter Shortbread
A sumptuously smooth and creamy, traditionally-baked Scottish shortbread using only pure butter in the mixture. These light, crumbly biscuits from the independent, specialist Scottish bakery boast an unmatched smoothness of texture and a genuinely melt-in-the-mouth texture. An everyday indulge in the baker's own estimation.
Cairnsmhor Cheddar Cheese Straws
An ideal savoury accompaniment to evening aperitif or digestif drinks; and a fine palate-cleanser when paired with any of the wines in this set; these deliciously flaky pastry strands, made with the finest Scottish Cheddar, are a rich but gentle palate-cleanser.
Christian Audigier Merlot 2009
This deep, purple-red, velvety Merlot is wonderfully violet-black in colour with a seductive, powerful nose of red fruits-cherries and blackberries) with hints of spice. Full-bodied, rich and round, the palate offers ripe fruit flavours and is yet elegant with a delightfully smooth finish; the perfect partner for grilled chicken, vegetarian dishes and pasta.
Christian Audigier Cabernet Sauvignon 2009
A delicious, deep red Cabernet Sauvignon with hints of green pepper, spices and black fruits offering seductive aromas of blackcurrant, violet, and coffee bean on the nose-equally expressive on the palate with a great elegance and depth. A harmonious wine, it is the perfect companion to game, red meat or rich cheese.
Christian Audigier Chardonnay 2009
The art of the winemaker is proven in this golden coloured Chardonnay which will delight your senses with aromas of spring blossom, citrus fruits and buttery toast. A well balanced palate with a superb richness to accompany perfectly grilled fish, quiches and white meat.
Christian Audigier Syrah 2009
This classic deep red Syrah is immediately elegant with a nose of truffle, rose petal, warming spices and a balance and refinement which can only be achieved by the craftsmanship of small-yield wine-making. The tannins possess an unmatched depth and a wonderful, velvety texture. An ideal accompaniment to lamb, rich Mediterranean dishes, barbecues and cheeses.
