  2017 Legardeta Garnacha, Chivite

  £1495

  The Chivite Legardeta range of wines includes Syrah, Chardonnay and this Garnacha.  Born in one of the most northern areas of the Iberian Peninsula for the cultivation of grapes, the Finca Legardeta.  This terroir, located 45 km from Pamplona is where these three unique wines are born, which have adapted perfectly to this enclave thanks to its climate and type of soil.

  After 10 months in French oak barrels, the 2017 Garnacha shows a ruby ​​red colour with intense violet hues. Its nose is fruity, with a predominance of red fruit (raspberry, strawberry), caramelised apple notes, very direct and seductive. Good entry on the palate, elegant, full-bodied, with refreshing and balanced acidity.

  As Julián Chivite points out, “the confluence of the Atlantic and continental climates in Legardeta, allows the Garnacha variety to reach perfect maturity, resulting in a wine of great varietal clarity and unusual freshness”.

  2021 ‘Nivarius’ Rioja Blanco, Palacios Vinos de Finca

  £1495

  Bodegas Nivarius specialises in the production of white wines from cool-climate vineyards in Rioja.

  This 100% Tempranillo Blanco has intense, fruity notes of zesty citrus, ripe apple and pear are complemented by white floral blossom and mineral nuances. Fresh and beautifully balanced, with a creamy texture and a long finish.

  Nivarius, meaning ‘snow-drift’, takes its name from the common sight of the snowy blanket which covers the vineyards in winter.

  The Tempranillo Blanco grapes are grown in the cool-climate sub regions of the Iregua Valley and the mountainous area of Nalda, Albelda and Clavijo. The warm days and cool nights prolong the ripening period and preserve aromatic richness in the fruit. The soils made up of a mixture of ferrous clay, with calcareous clay. The soils are generally deep with sandy components, which imparts agility and depth to the wine. The Tempranillo Blanco variety produces few clusters, which means it ripens quickly, this trait is balanced by the soils which impart natural freshness. The vineyards are farmed using sustainable methods; chemical sprays are not used, instead organic products are employed in order to protect the environment and biodiversity of the vineyard. This sustainable approach encourages the best expression of the terroir and a true reflection of the aromas and flavours of the white Rioja grape varieties.

  2022 ‘Elysium’ Black Muscat, Quady – 375ml

  £1500

  Elysium is a brilliant crimson-purple colour with aromas of ripe berries, rose petals, strawberries and lychees. The vibrant acidity balances beautifully with the sweetness of this wine, making it very refreshing.    This wine is amazing with Chocolate desserts and cheese.   This really is one of those wow wines and always elicits the same response – wow!

  This wine also has a great birth story – In 1983 a nearby grower brought Andrew Quady some Black Muscat grapes that were previously destined for sacramental wine at a local church. When the church ceased operations, the grower was left with truckloads of perfectly ripe grapes. Upon hearing that newcomer Quady had some success with Orange Muscat, he knocked on Quady’s door and the rest as they say, is history.
