Chatelet 2018 Hautes Cotes De Nuits
Look for red fruit (strawberry and cherry) and hints of violets and spice. Fine, medium- bodied tannins on the palate with soft and refreshing acidity round out this savoury Burgundian red. Utterly delicious on its own and versatile with food.
For wine lovers looking for that rare bottle of Red Burgundy that truly over delivers for the price. This Pinot Noir will stand out on the shelf for being one of the very few offerings under $45.00
La Liquière Faugeres ‘Nos Racines’ 2019
120+ Year-Old Carignan. 85% Carignan, 15% Grenache - two plots planted before 1900
The original grape variety of the appellation, Carignan is a testament to the terroir, creating wine with a striking character. Notes of blackberry fruit and black currant, Nos Racines combines concentration and freshness with soft tannins.
Blandy’s Sercial Madeira 1968
"The Blandys established themselves on Madeira in 1811 and are now in charge of the Madeira Wine Company. Aged for 49 years in seasoned American oak casks before bottling in 2017, this wine is mid-deep amber in colour with an olive-green glint. Fine, lifted woodsmoke characters on the nose are redolent of autumn leaves and bonfires. It has crystallised fruit on the palate with rapier-like power and intensity. The hint of sweetness (59g/l residual sugar) is offset by a streak of acidity, leading to a mouthwateringly fresh greengage finish yielding to a touch of savoury complexity. A wine that sings contralto from the glass." - 99 points Decanter
Broadbent 10 Year Old Malmsey Madeira
Domaine Grosbois Clos du Noyer Chinon 2020
Domaine Grosbois Gabare Chinon 2020
Succulent and ripe, offering sweet strawberry and raspberry fruit. The tannins are delectable, coating the palate with a light texture of cocoa powder. It's a harmonious, textural style that's easy to like thanks to its friendly personality. Can be enjoyed now with charcuterie and benefits from a light chill.
Domaine Grosbois Clos La Henry Bourgeuil 2020
Coming from a single parcel in the Bourgueil area, Clos de la Henry shows notes of raspberry, graphite, green peppers and violet along with a smooth yet refreshing texture. Using minimal intervention during production, it is a magnificent expression of Cabernet Franc. To be served with boudin or venison terrines.
Smith Woodhouse Vintage Port 1980
Graham’s Vintage Port 1985
Foncesa Vintage Port 1970
"Fonseca 1970 was the finest bottle I have encountered. The bouquet opens beautifully with heady scents of clove, ginger, small red cherries, bergamot and allspice, displaying exquisite definition and harmony. The palate follows suit with lovely balance and poise in the mouth, notes of kirsch, shaved ginger and walnut building to an opulent, viscous finish that lacquers the mouth. Yet this bottle shows more control than the bottle tasted four years ago." - Robert Parker 95 points
