This is maybe my favourite wine in the world, I've got a real soft spot for sherry and I think Tradición make the most thought provoking and ethereal wines. They pioneered the VORS classification and specialise in very aged expressions of sherry - this Amontillado is not only stunning, but it is also an incredible pairing with our Indian flavours.

When living in Australia I became very familiar with this producer, which still flies under the radar in the UK. Pedro Parra (soil expert) consults on the project, based in Barossa with some old vines planted on the estate back in the '50s. It's a modern take on Barossa, it's elegant, hardly sees any oak, and has amazing texture - I stayed at the winery a couple of years ago and what they're doing is seriously special.

This needs no introduction, but I'm very excited to be able to pour this by the glass - not just from the most revered producer in the region, but quite a special vintage. 2011 was exceptional, being compared to the legendary 2001 vintage it's perhaps one of the single best examples of d'Yquem made so rather exciting to pour it BTG at BiBi
