1 x Villa Blanche Syrah 2019 (France)

AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: Mundus Vini

COMMENDED: Decanter Magazine 2019

A wine of reddish-purple colour with exquisite violet reflections. The nose opens with seductively powerful aromas of ripe black fruit, then come cocoa and mocha, with fig, prune and blackberry joining in the dance, mingling joyfully with vanilla and toasted notes. In the mouth, the smoothness of texture and the silkiness of the tannins are astonishing. The aromas echo the same black fruit enhanced with truffle-like notes of forest floor, leading to an opulent but superbly fresh finish. A wine gorged with sunshine that indulges the senses whilst maintaining a perfect balance that allows it to rise to all occasions.

1 x Le Village du Sud Syrah 2017 (France)

AWARDED 90/100 POINTS & 4.5 STARS: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Jun 2019

"It is delightfully expressed on the nose showing dark plum, blackberry, olive, toasted spice and floral characters, leading to a flavoursome palate that is supple and soothing. It is up front and tasty with bright fruit flavours, backed by fine, polished tannins. At its best: now to 2021" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Jun 2019
This Syrah offers as sweetly perfumed nose that displays dark plum notes. Game, vanilla and roasted nut characters then lead to a succulent palate that is beautifully fruited and smooth. This is upfront and tasty with plenty of ripe fruit flavours and subtle savoury notes.

1 x Château Franc Couplet Cuvée Privilege 2016 (France)

AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: Concours de Bordeaux 2017

AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: Gilbert Gaillard 2017

AWARDED SILVER MEDAL: Concours de Paris 2017

Dark ruby color. Red fruit aromas with plum and cherry jam and vanilla hints from the oak ageing. Well balanced, rich structure with refined tannins. A very good example of value for money Bordeaux.

Revel in the delightful, rich fruit and depth of this claret from a family estate in Entre-Deux-Mers. With a proud medal winning pedigree, Chateau Franc Couplet is a cuvée from the Entre Deux Mers and typifies the style for which this region is renowned. It displays good depth of colour with expressive ripe cassis and dark plum aromas. It's smooth, rounded and elegantly proportioned with just a subtle hint of spice - the epitome of modern claret.

1 x Belles Vignes Collection GSM 2019 (France)

"Sweetly fruited and beautifully fragrant, the wine shows Black Doris plum, cranberry, violet and mixed spice aromas, followed by a succulent palate that is plump and smooth. Modern, flavoursome and elegant at the same time, making it splendidly drinkable. At its best: now to 2021

A classic Southrn French blend of Grenache, Syrah and the little known Marselan. Generously flavoured and sturdy, this is filled with dark fruit, game and spice characters, beautifully enhanced by fruit richness and smooth mouthfeel. The wine is well structured by pleasingly dry tannins, making it a wonderful partner to winter slow-cooked dishes and other flavoursome meat dishes.
