They're distinctive, they're delicious and, although you could enjoy them at any time of year, to me each seems made for the warmer days of spring and summer. Domaine des Aspes Chardonnay-Viognier, Vin de Pays d'Oc, 1996 (Best Cellars £9 bottle/£108 case) is a luscious, almost dangerously drinkable white, full-bodied yet fresh, with lovely peachy notes. Givry 1er Cru, Clos de la Servoi sine, Domaine Jean-Marc Joblot, 1996 (Burgundy Direct, £13.75 bottle/£165 case), from one of Burgundy's rising stars, is light and lively with exquisite cherry and raspberry character - an outstanding red Burgundy at the price.
