    Precise, intense and expressive wine. This second wine reflects the terroir of Pauillac and pays a fine tribute to Château Haut-Bages Libéral.

The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers a good definition, juiciness, a beautiful frame as well as a good roundness. On the palate, this wine expresses notes of fleshy/juicy cassis and crushed blackberry with touches of red fruits (strawberry, cherry) as well as discreet hints of liquorice and chocolate/tonka bean. Tannins are fine and elegant.

    2020 Cape Mentelle Cabernet Sauvignon, Cape Mentelle

    £4495

    “A wine that represents the pinnacle of our energies and research, the embodiment of our experimentation and exploration and the symbol of our legacy”

    In the glass, the aromatics are deep and complex consisting of a mineral blackcurrant core with touches of anise, bay leaves and dark chocolate. Rich elements of rosemary, spearmint and moist forest floor reveal themselves as the tightly wound profile gently unfurls.  The palate has a powerful rush of cocoa powder, with dark forest berry fruits of blackcurrant and mulberry, peppered with notes of spiced ginger and caramel toffee. The seamlessly integrated palate of powdery tannins frame the perfectly weighted earthiness and fruit, giving a long texture that harks of the saline coastal influence.

    This superlative 2nd wine of Château Cantenac-Brown is a rare beast indeed – with only 2500 cases made each year!  Aromas of pencil-lead and cedar. Smooth and silky with firm tannins and soft, cassis flavours.  A subtle, well made and altogether a rather morish glass of wine.

    This delightful vintage can be drunk now but will keep well for a few years more.

    2017 La Reserve De Leoville Barton, St. Julien

    £4995

    The second wine of Leoville Barton, this traditionally styled Bordeaux has an expressive nose of forest berries with hints of cedar, coffee, and a touch of vanilla spice. Elegant and refined, with a long finish.

    Despite initially challenging weather, the 2018 Bordeaux vintage was excellent. The winter was unusually wet and remained so throughout spring. Hail also struck some vineyards during this period. However, conditions eased, allowing for a successful flowering followed by a particularly hot, dry summer with surprisingly cool nights, from June through to September. September brought welcome rains, reviving the vines. Harvest took place under ideal conditions, producing small, thick-skinned and highly concentrated berries, resulting in rich wines, with balancing acidity and a fresh, fruity appeal.

    2020 Rod and Spur Shiraz-Cabernet, Rockford

    £5500

    This incredible blend of Shiraz & Cabernet Sauvignon is a uniquely Australian blend that pays homage to the great Aussie wines of yesteryear.    With plenty of sweet spice and brambly black fruit comes a concentrated blackcurrant and vanilla aroma, followed by a rich, full-bodied palate. The flavour is full of crunchy black fruit with soft tannins, refreshing acidity and subtle vanilla sweetness.

    The name Rod & Spur acknowledges the contribution of Rockford’s growers who spend the cold Barossa winters hand-pruning their vines in the traditional rod and spur method. This wine is a return to the great Australian reds of the 1950s and 60’s, when Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon blends dominated the premium market. This very Australian wine is not common in any other region of the world.

    Like all Rockford reds, the grapes for this wine go through an 1880s Bagshaw de-stemmer, are open fermented and then gently basket pressed. All components are aged separately in a combination of seasoned American and French oak hogsheads and large oak casks for two years. This allows the tannins to soften and colours and flavours to consolidate, before being bottled under the highest quality cork.

    2023 The Chocolate Block, Boekenhoutskloof – MAGNUM

    £5500

    A Magnum of South Africa’s cult wine

    The 2023 vintage of The Chocolate Block continues to build on its legacy as one of South Africa’s most iconic and sought-after red blends. Crafted predominantly from Syrah, with carefully selected additions of Grenache, Cinsault, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Viognier (blend proportions vary annually), this cult-status wine showcases Boekenhoutskloof’s mastery in balancing innovation and consistency. Only 4,043 barrels were produced, further enhancing its rarity and appeal.

    In the glass, the wine opens with an intensely aromatic bouquet of blackberries, blueberries, and ripe bramble fruit, intertwined with black olive tapenade, crushed violets, and a dusting of white pepper and coriander seed. The palate is rich yet polished, delivering layers of dark berry fruit, red liquorice, and cherry compote, underscored by hints of cherry tobacco and exotic spice.

    Despite its medium to full body, the wine remains elegant and focused, with vibrant acidity and silky tannins that glide across the palate. The finish is long, dry, and laced with a touch of savoury complexity, reflecting both the terroir and meticulous craftsmanship behind the blend.

    A compelling, age-worthy red that drinks beautifully now but will reward cellaring over the next 5–8 years. Ideal with flame-grilled meats, game dishes, or rich Mediterranean fare.

    2017 ‘Altazor’, Undurraga

    £5995

    An exceptional wine revealing expressive aromatic layers, balanced concentration and wonderful complexity. Deep red fruits and blackberries are underpinned by earthy nuances, subtle spice and mineral notes with a touch of tobacco. The structured palate shows depth of flavour and integrated tannins, through to an everlasting finish. Drinking Window 2022 – 2030

    The grapes for this wine were carefully selected from small plots. The Cabernet Sauvignon comes from estate vineyards planted in the early 1990s, in Pirque and Los Morros, in Alto Maipo. The Pirque vineyard contains alluvial soils with medium composition with a high level of stone content, whereas Los Morros consists of soils of colluvial-alluvial origin. Both soil types have medium to low fertility, good depth of 1.5 to 2 metres and good drainage; ideal conditions to produce wines of character. The Carménère grapes come from an estate vineyard in the Colchagua Valley planted in the mid-1980s. The clay loam soil textures are dominant which is ideal for this variety as they retain soil moisture ensuring optimum and prolonged ripening. The Carignan grapes come from a rain-fed vineyard planted in 1958, in the Maule Valley. It contains soils with clay texture, high quartz content, subsoil of granitic origin and good drainage.

  • <a href="https://wine-republic.co.uk/product/2020-reserve-cabernet-sauvignon-xanadu/">2020 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon, Xanadu</a>

    2020 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon, Xanadu

    £6900

    The Quintessential Margaret River Cabernet, with perfumed black fruit aromas and a generous, velvety palate packed with irresistible dark forest fruit and chocolate characters.

    The Reserve range continues to be the best of what Xanadu are able to produce in a given vintage – single vineyard or otherwise. Fruit was predominantly sourced from two mature, dry grown vineyards; Timber Creek, in the Wilyabrup subregion; and Victory Point in the Treeton subregion of Margaret River and was supplemented with a small amount of Malbec from the Stevens Road vineyard in Wallcliffe. The resulting blend from these vineyards has married beautifully, proving again that sometimes ‘the whole is greater than the sum of its parts’.

  • <a href="https://wine-republic.co.uk/product/2019-lota-cousino-macul/">2019 Lota, Cousino Macul</a>

    2019 Lota, Cousino Macul

    £7200

    Red Wine of the Year, 97 points, Tim Atkin MW, 2023 Report on Chilean wines.

    Lota is the flagship wine of Cousiño Macul, an emblem of heritage, precision, and exceptional terroir. Sourced from the winery’s most treasured parcels, including Cabernet Sauvignon vines planted in 1932, this wine represents the pinnacle of the family’s winemaking tradition. These ungrafted vines are descendants of original French cuttings brought to Chile in the 1860s and grow at the foot of the Andes, 600 meters above sea level, in rocky, loamy soils that yield naturally low quantities of intensely concentrated fruit.

    In the glass, the 2019 Lota reveals a nose that is rich and layered, offering aromas of cassis, blackberry, and black cherry interwoven with cedar, cocoa, and subtle hints of warm spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied and structured, yet impressively refined. Lush black fruit flavours are framed by fine, ripe tannins and nuanced oak, creating a harmonious balance that culminates in a long, elegant, and ultra-smooth finish.

    This is a wine of power, grace, and provenance, worthy of extended cellaring, but compellingly drinkable now. Ideal for collectors and connoisseurs seeking a Cabernet-based wine that marries Old World sophistication with New World vitality.

  • <a href="https://wine-republic.co.uk/product/2018-rifle-range-cabernet-sauvignon-rockford/">2019 Rifle Range Cabernet Sauvignon, Rockford</a>

    2019 Rifle Range Cabernet Sauvignon, Rockford

    £7800

    The nose on this elegant cabernet is generous, rich and ripe with plenty of classic blackcurrant fruit with cocoa and tobacco notes. The palate is fresh and herbal with thyme notes that lift the concentrated black fruit. Smooth, silky tannins and a wonderful freshness on the finish.

    Rifle Range Road, which runs parallel to Krondorf Road, is in the heart of the Valley Floor and winds its way up the hills to Kaiser Stuhl National Park. The old rifle range is long gone, but the farming land and vineyards that have long been part of the landscape are still there.  “Because most of our Cabernet Sauvignon comes from vineyards adjacent to Rifle Range Road, it seemed the most appropriate name for this wine, which has been part of Rockford since the very beginning.”

    2018 Cru Classe Château Cantenac Brown

    £7995

    The 2015 is a wine of great substance and beautiful ripeness. The generous core of blackberry, blackcurrant, cherry and redcurrant fruit is enveloped in savoury roasted notes.

    The vineyard is managed in an environmentally friendly manner and Cantenac Brown holds the Haute Valeur Environmentale certificate (HVE3) level 3 which is the highest level. Only plant-based fertilisers are applied using a moderate and balanced approach in tune with the needs of the vines.
