\"OLYMPUS
\nVisited The Remedy<\/a> for the first time on Thursday. It’s a new wine bar in Fitzrovia, on Cleveland Street and in close proximity to three tube stations (Regents Park, Warren Street and Great Portland Street).<\/p>\n

This is a great addition to the rapidly expanding London wine bar scene, and the wine list is the real deal (you can see it here<\/a>), with lots of interesting bottles. There’s a strong natural element to it, but it’s not as hardcore a list as some. The by the glass selection is a sensible size and has some interesting bottles on it. It would be nice to have a few more options, but then there’d be a lot of wastage and the possibility of running into tired or out of condition bottles. <\/p>\n

You can eat here too, with a menu offering light bites to something a bit more substantial. What we had was excellent (mixed cured meats and breads). I was visiting with Ted Lemon of Littorai and Burn Cottage, but as well as tasting a few of his wines (which I’ll write up separately), we also explored some of the wines from the Remedy’s list. <\/p>\n

Suertes del Marques Trenzado 2012 Tenerife, Spain<\/strong>
\nReally complex, fresh, minerally nose with some lovely matchstick\/flint notes. Fresh but textured palate with pronounced minerally reduction and great precision. Such a lovely wine, for those who like a bit of good reduction. 94\/100
\n\"OLYMPUS<\/p>\n

Escoda Sanahuja Els Bassots 2011 Conca de Barbera, Spain<\/strong>
\nA skin contact Chenin. Yellow\/orange colour. Structured with apply, nutty characters, plus minerals, lemons, pear and herbs. Some structure evident. Such a distinctive wine with interest and complexity. 93\/100
\n\"OLYMPUS<\/p>\n

Filippi Soave Monteseroni 2008 Veneto, Italy<\/strong>
\nNutty and textured with apples and pears, as well as some rounded honeyed notes. A really textured, thought-provoking wine with subtly oxidative characters adding interest and texture. 92\/100
\n\"OLYMPUS<\/p>\n

Keller Riesling Von der Fels 2012 Rheinhessen, Germany<\/strong>
\nThis is brilliant. Fresh, mineral and bright with some grapefruit and lemon notes. Really detailed and precise; dry but generous, with brilliant balance. Thrillingly good. 94\/100
\n\"OLYMPUS<\/p>\n

Dujac Gevrey Chambertin 2011 Burgundy, France<\/strong>
\nVery strong for a village level negoce wine. Fresh and bright with subtle green notes and some spice, a hint of herbs and a touch of pepper. This has lovely sweet cherry fruit but also a bit of structural grip. Such an expressive wine. 93\/100<\/p>\n

\"OLYMPUS<\/p>\n

JM Stephan Cote Rotie 2012 Northern Rhone, France<\/strong>
\nVery floral violet and pepper nose with some meaty olive notes too. It smells like a cool climate Syrah from a warmer region: it has edges. The palate is suberbly fresh and edgy, with some rustic notes, tannins and sweet dark fruit. This is essence of northern Rhone. 93\/100<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
