Prosecco, Rose De Stefani
Delicious pink sparkler with a deep colour of orange-pink and violet hues. Fruity aromas and flavours of cherry, blackberry and a floral note adding charm to its depth of flavour. Satisfying.
Tuscan red which punches above its price point. Rigerous selection of grapes and clever use of Slavonian oak ensures this wine is incredibly rich and concentrated. Outstanding value.
Terres Noires
Fruity Mediterranean red produced with Grenache and Merlot grapes, supple and although fruit-driven, the Grenache provides an interesting savoury flavour to the fruit quality.
Livor
Delicious quaffing Rioja produced with 100% organically grown Tempranillo grapes around Logrono and San Vicente de la Soncierra.
Jurancon
Jurançon Doux, Clos Uroulat 2008 (France)
Situated in the foothills of the Pyrenees, this 16 hectare estate is run by father and daughter winemaking team Charles & Marie Hours. They produce two very different styles of Jurançon dry and sweet in a region which is steeped in history. All of the Hours’s vines are trellised high at 2½ meters to prevent damage from the Spring frosts, and on average, the vines are over 20 years old. This sweet Clos Uroulat is 100% Petit Manseng late harvested in early November. Its fresh zesty character is captivating, orange blossom on the nose with citrussy flavours and perfect balance. Serve with foie gras as a starter wine or with fruit dessert and cheeses at the finish. Still a few bottles of the now rare 2006 vintage left …
Good fruity red with gentle warming spice from Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre and, unusually, Tempranillo grape also in the mix. Together with the berry-like fruits it is a suitable match with pasta and tomato-based sauce as well as roasted red meats.
This family run domaine is based in Bue, an area to the south-west of Sancerre. Winemaker Patrick Girault goes to great lengths to achieve the colour and purity of this delicious pale salmon rose. Gentle crushing and brief contact on the red skins provide the perfect colour, soft red fruits and leafy-savoury character. Produced with 100% Pinot Noir grapes. Delicious with deli foods and even “man” enough for our smoked duck!
Castano
Fine Monastrel and Cabernet Sauvignon blend, excellent quality and value, with use of both French and American oak gives a spicy rounded wine, elegant and balanced. Well crafted.
Terrazas Torrentes
Aromatic, fruity and sensual with remarkable freshness and aromas suggesting white flowers, pear, mango and passionfruit. Completely unoaked. A wine to match with Asian cuisine or really for any occasion whether accompanied by food or not. Next we are jumping straight to the award winning 2010… look nout for it, it`s amazing!
Terrazas Malbec
Characteristic violets and black fruits: cherries, prunes and raisins, supported by vanilla and caramel notes. Structured and concentrated. A blockbuster intensely fruity, warming red for the Autumn and Winter months. Try with stew, smoked duck or roasted red meats.
