This is an excellent example of Tempranillo-Syrah from old Spanish dry-farmed Organic vineyards. Deep purple with a ruby rim, displaying aromas of red fruit and blackberries with slight spicy notes of freshly ground pepper. Medium bodied and juicy on palate, yet with fine tannins and a refreshing finish. Organic.

Food Pairing: Excellent with pasta, BBQ, cheeses and Spanish tapas.

1 x Villa Blanche 'Les cepages anciens' Piquepoul Noir 2021 (France)

AWARDED 16/20 POINTS: Jancis Robinson

"Dark, ruby colour, the nose is fresh with aromas of ripe red cherry and berry fruit along with notes of dark raspberries, and an blend of spices, florals and liquorice.  Medium-bodied, the palate has soft and gently rich character, vibrant fruit flavours of red cherries and berries with savoury spice, herb and floral touches.  This is really lovely & glugable , the fruit is sweet and juicy, and is underlined by balancing fresh acidity.  A great alternative to the 'heavier' wines of the region, this is all about elegance and balance" Jancis Robinson

1 x Calmel & Joseph Villa Blanche Merlot 2021 (France)

AWARDED 16/20 POINTS: Jancis Robinson

Brilliant cherry red. This 2021 vintage has a much fresher profile with a swathe of red fruit like cherry, redcurrant, crushed strawberry, with the well-balanced nose also offering hints of menthol and spicy notes of white pepper and cinnamon. Deliciously smooth and generous in the mouth with supple, melting tannins and the same red fruit with cherry, pomegranate, wild strawberry but also laurel and juniper. A magnificent, fruit packed Merlot of superb balance and tension.

Alc: 13% - Seal: Screw Cap

1 x Bodegas Aragonesas Don Ramon Tinto Especial Barrica 2020 (Spain)

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

"This is immediately appealing with ripe cherry, cured meat, mixed spice and toasted nut aromas. The palate is equally charming and approachable, delivering succulent fruit flavours and silky texture with savoury nuances. Smooth and soothing with an attractive spicy finish. At its best: now to 2025" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
