Freshly Picked
January 2026
Alain Milliat Juice
Pure, pressed-fruit flavour with the sort of balance you rarely get from juice: real sweetness, clean acidity, and a finish that tastes like the fruit (not “fruit drink”). Keep it chilled and treat it like a good ingredient, not just a soft drink.
Origin: France
Pairing: Fresh goat’s cheese, ricotta, or a mild soft cheese; also excellent alongside buttery viennoiserie or a simple breakfast spread.
Maison Marc Soups
Comforting, vegetable-forward soups with proper savoury depth. Smooth, well-seasoned, and designed for easy lunches that still feel “made”. The flavours are clean and clear, letting the ingredients do the work.
Origin: France
Pairing: A grilled cheese toastie, crusty sourdough, or a small plate of charcuterie and cornichons.
Tenute Chiaromonte Ele
A generous, dark-fruited Italian red—black cherry and plum up front, then a gentle savoury warmth underneath. Soft tannins, rounded texture, and the sort of finish that makes it very easy to pour “one more glass”.
Origin: Italy
Pairing: Hard cheeses (Pecorino, aged Manchego) and cured meats.
Raclette Forestière
This is raclette with added woodland depth: rich, melt-friendly cheese with earthy mushroom notes and a savoury, cosy finish. Proper comfort food, but still balanced, especially when you bring acidity and crunch to the plate.
Origin: France
Pairing: Melt under the grill or in a raclette machine; pour over potatoes, roasted veg, or sourdough.
Blood Oranges
Deep-coloured flesh, sweet citrus up front, and that gentle bitter edge that makes blood oranges so moreish. The flavour can lean slightly berry-like, with a brighter, more complex finish than standard oranges.
Pairing: Dark chocolate, ricotta, or a fennel salad with olive oil and sea salt.
1kg Strawberry Trays
Ripe, fragrant strawberries with a bright, juicy bite—sweet enough to eat straight from the punnet, but with the freshness that still works in savoury dishes.
Pairing: Soft cheeses (burrata, mascarpone), or try them with balsamic and black pepper for a classic deli-style twist.
Vassout Apples
Crisp, juicy apples with a clean snap and a balanced sweet-tart profile. The kind of fruit you can happily eat as-is, but also dependable for slicing into salads or serving with cheese.
Origin: France
Pairing: Mature Cheddar, blue cheese, or pâté, apples bring freshness and crunch against richness.
Vassout Pears
Soft, juicy pears with mellow sweetness and just enough acidity to keep things bright. Lovely eaten fresh, but also excellent when you want fruit that sits comfortably alongside savoury flavours.
Origin: France
Pairing: Gorgonzola, Stilton or Brie, or a cured ham. Pears love salt and fat.
