Domaine Valescure Merlot, Vin du Pays du Gard, 2006100 % Merlot from vines grown on the chalky-clay soils typical of this valley. The grapes are de-stemmed after harvest and fermented in the same way as with the Cabernet Sauvignon. A proportion of the free run juice is blended with the press wine for the malo-lactic fermentation in barrel, giving the wine suppleness and complexity. Best drunk over the next 5 years. |
|
Esencia Valdemar Blanco 2005, Bodegas ValdemarClean fresh wine with lemon aromas and a crisp palate. |
|
Passo Doble Doppia Fermentazione, 2004A great big mouthful of ripe dark fruits with a rich silky palate. |
|
Hellfire Bay Shiraz Grenache 2004We love these guys! Gavin Berry has won more awards than you can shake a stick at, but is still making wines without compromise or respect for fashion. His aim is to make wines that \'over deliver\'- no argument from us on that score. |
|
The Signature Barossa Cabernet Shiraz, 2000Distinctive wine, with layers of spice, plum and berry flavours. Smooth and harmonious with a complex earthy finish. |
|
Camino del Sur, Cabernet Sauvignon, 2005Produced from grapes grown in the Bio Bio Valley in the south of Chile, Camino del Sur Cabernet Sauvignon is an approachable and uncomplicated wine for every day drinking. |
|
Cabernet Sauvignon 2005, Vin De Pays D'oc, Albert Bichot100% Cabernet Sauvignon produced in the Costal Mountains and hills along the Mediterranean Sea between the Pyrenees and the Massif Central of France. Matured between 4 to 8 months in oak casks, which gives this wine a slightly mellow taste with hints of spice and rich dark fruit. This wine offers great value. |
|
Julienas, Albert Bichot, 2005 It has a deep red colour with garnet nuances. |

Beaune 1er Cru 2002, Maison Albert BichotThe wine is barrelled for 15-20 months, according to the vintage, in oak casks, of which 20-40% are new, with a variety of origins of wood: Toncais, Nevers, Vosges, Burgandy. Maturation in new casks brings out the fragrances and tannin of the wood, and also, via its porosity, limited natural oxygenation helping favourable maturation of the wine. This wine consists of 100% Pinot Noir grown on rich clay lime soils giving this wine a well balanced fleshy and round tannic backbone reinforced by the new oak drink now too 2010. |
|
Savigny les Beaune les Peuillets, Girardin, 2002Savigny wines offer excellent value, they are soft, supple and elegant and les Peuillets is one of the best |
|
Volnay 1er Cru Les Santenots, Girardin, 1999Striking nose of bright, juicy raspberry fruit: very intense. Poweful, juicy palate with very primary fruit, demonstrating good concentration |
|
Bourgogne Hautes-Cotes de Beaune 2004, Maison Albert BichotVery enjoyable, it is fleshy and round with a well balanced body. On the nose it is fruity, fresh and young, with strawberry and sweet black cherry. |
|
|
Nuits St Georges, Domaine Chezeaux, 2004Medium bodied, this offers plenty of ripe berry fruits and meaty flavours; hints of spice and an excellent mineral backbone. There is also excellent acidity, lending the wine great balance and finesse. |
|
|
St Joseph Rouge 2005, Domaine CourbisRich dark red colour and a bouquet of red berry fruit lead to a rich full bodied yet mellow wine made entirely with the Syrah grape. The wine is allowed to macerate for 12-30 days depending on the vintage and is matured in oak barrels with 50% in barrels of 1 wine the balance in barrels of 2 or 3 wines. The wonderful opulence of the wine makes it the perfect complement to red meat dishes and it also lends itself perfectly to spicey dishes, it's lightly peppery Syrah style matching the complexity of the spice. |
|
Vacqueyras 2005, Domaine de MontvacDelicious blend of Grenache (60%) and Syrah (30-35%)gives this wine its character enhanced by a small (5-10%) percentage of Mourvedre whose soft ripe tannins help the wine to mature gracefully. The three cepages are vinified together, initially at low temperature to ensure the capture of the varietal aromas and then at higher temperatures to extract the tannins and to achieve the rich complexity associated with the wines from this domaine. The wines mature elegantly for 2 to 4 years and in exceptional vintages can continue to develop complexity and finesse over 5 - 7 years. |
|
Chateauneuf-du-Pape Rouge, Chateau de Vaudieu, 2003Vadieu, derived from the valee de Dieu, is an impressive 18th century estate with low yielding , 30 year old Grenache vines, with a dollop of Syrah and a dash of Mourvedre. With just 5 per cent of the blend aged in oak, the final wine is fresher than most sun burnt 2003 Chateauneufs and oozes with ripe, elegant, vibrant cherry, cedar and sandalwood spice |
|
|
Barolo Bussia, Prunotto, Famiglia Antinori, 2000 |
|
|
Valpolicella Classico Superiore, Fabiano, 2005Hints of red cherries and spice on the nose. Medium bodied, plenty of ripe red berry fruits on the palate; surprising level of complexity at this price point; soft tannins and very charming. |
|
|
Amarone della Valpolicella, Rugola, Fabiano, 2003Deep purple in colour with a redish brick coloured rim. Full and rich on the nose with touches of dried fruits and spice. It's packed with exotic fruits on the palate, full bodied yet with good mineral notes to provide balance and finesse. Long on the finish. Superb! |
|
|
Pinot Noir, Pencarrow Estate, Martinborough, 2005From the renowned Palliser Estate in Martinborough, this attractive Pinot has plenty of ripe red berry fruits - notes of raspberries and fruits of the forest. Silky tannins and an excellent finish. |
|
Kahina 2003, MoroccoThis and the wine from Morocco below are both from the stable of the renowned proprietor of Château Pape Clément, Bernard Magrez. He specialises in securing estates that have the potential to be world class wines. Robert Parker has been an admirer, which has brought Magrez significant exposure. 80% Tannat and 20% Merlot from young vines and aged in French oak. We've not been as successful in convincing customers that we have a wine from Uruguay that is a good buy. This medium bodied wine has great elegance and style; the subtle use of new oak has not obscured the mineral notes of the fruit, which gives the wine great appeal. |
|
|
Sonsierra Tinto, Rioja Alta, Bodegas Sonsierra, 2005Deep ruby colour. Ripe, plump dark berry fruit, hints of black cherries and cinnamon; good round tannins and balance. |
|
Vina Izadi, Rioja Crianza, 2003Many rioja's can be overpowering vanilla, but this wine has rich ripe fruit with just a lick of balancing vanilla, a superb wine. |
|
Conde De Valdemar, Rioja Gran Reserva, 1997A real powerhouse of a wine full of big ripe blackcurrant and vanilla. |
|
Gran Casa Magrez, Bernard Magrez, Uruguay, 1997Introduced to South America by Catholic missionaries, wine growing spread not only thanks to their efforts, but also to the development of French, German and Italian colonies. Tannat, Case Margrez's main grape variety, produces excellent results in this country with an oceanic climate, like Bordeaux, but with hotter summers. |
