What's included?

Bodegas Manzanos Rioja Reserva, Spain: Aged for 24 monthes in American and French oak barrels this wine is bright cherry-red colour with sparkles of ruby. Aromas of vanilla and sweet almonds with hints of leather in fine combination with the wood. The attack is generous and pleasant with intense spicy nuances. Round, intense finish.

Terre Fideles Cote du Rousillion, France: This is our first organic addition to the top-tier from Terres Fidèles. This, is a blend of Grenache and Carignan, a wine of power but not at the cost of elegance and finesses. A beautiful balance of dark and light. Grenache brings with it huge dark brooding fruit, great concentration and rich texture, whilst Carignan adds freshness, acidity, and bright fruit which marks out this very singular wine.

Chateau Lamothe Cissac Haut Medoc 2016: A traditional style of Bordeaux that has elegance and savoury fruit in abundance. Exhibits a dark ruby colour in the first years. Aerating the wine displays a large spectrum of aromas: notes of red (blackcurrant) and jammy fruits associated with soft spices and subtle vanilla. Well-balanced palate with soft tannins and a very delicate finish. Excellent age worthiness. Cellaring a few years will develop a complex mix of leather, undergrowth and smoky notes.

Cascina Rosalba Langhe Nebbiolo, Piemonte: A delicate, Pinot Noir -esk grape with a little more bite, the nose reveals aromas of red berries, hints of balsamic and a hint of peppery spice. In the mouth there is elegance, balance full. Delicate tannins lead to a very long finish.

Vila Elena Pacheco, Jumilla, Spain: A lovely spanish take on a Rhone style GSM blend,  hugely appealing and immediate wine, with fragrant red berries on the nose. Fruit-driven, medium-bodied, easy drinking, with smooth tannins and delightful freshness, which we feel is more reminiscent of wines from the Rhône valley than the usual Jumilla style. A serious and elegant wine.
