Finally I got the chance to visit Elliot’s wine bar in Borough Market, on the south side of the Thames. The occasion was not only that I was in London for the Real Wine fair, but also that I visited the new big sax shop at nearby Blackfriars. In the wine bar I had three wines, among them Testalonga<\/em>‘s\u00a0Stay Brave<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Elliot’s opened in 2011 and has from the beginning offered a simple menu based on good ingredients in season. They deal directly with fishermen and farmers, all of them with a focus on sustainability. They cook over a wood fired grill, and the wine list is exclusively comprised of natural wines from small artisan growers.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

I had two small plates, first courgette, broad bean & herb salad, then beef tartare with green peppercorn, parsley and smoked Wensleydale (Yorkshire cow’s milk cheese). And several of the waiters have the knowledge to guide you through the wines.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

I started with a Catalan white, Nar i Tornar 2017<\/strong> (Vinya Ferrer)<\/em>, mainly garnacha blanca and some macabeu, a tasty and slightly cloudy non SO2 wine. It showed a slight mouse taint, but was nevertheless good. It was followed by a C\u00f4tes du Rh\u00f4ne 2017<\/strong> (Dom. Aphillantes)<\/em>, an un-oaked grenache-carignan-mourv\u00e8dre blend; young, dark fruit, spice (but not the sweet oak style), and luscious, drinkable at the same time that it also has some light fine-grained tannin.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n

From the “last pour” section (not on the list and changes according to what has been opened) I had a wonderful wine from\u00a0Testalonga<\/em>. This is Craig Hawkins’ project in Swartland, South-Africa, and one of my favourites right now (I have two opened chenins of his in my fridge at the time of writing).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Stay Brave 2018<\/strong> is pure chenin blanc. The names in the producer’s Baby Bandito series come from the encouragements you give a child, and the colourful labels are inspired by street artist. It’s made in steel, with 11 days of skin-contact and bottled un-filtered. It’s a low alcohol (10,5) and high acidity (6,5-7g) wine.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Stay Brave 2018<\/strong>\u00a0(Testalonga Wines)<\/em><\/p>\n

Yellow. Smells of fresh green apples, citrus (lemon), white flowers and ginger. Very fresh, fruity, quite concentrated, mineral and super elegant.<\/p>\n

Price: Medium<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Food: Worked well with my herbaceous, green plate. Can go with white\u00a0 fish, grilled fish, light meat, Asian and a variety of cheeses<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
