  2017 Petit Verdot Mini Ediciones, Finca Decero

  £3775 Original price was: £3775.£2265Current price is: £2265. 40% saving

  Finca Decero is a world-class wine producer located in the Agrelo sub-appellation of Luján de Cuyo in the northwestern part of the province of Mendoza.  Their famed Remolinos Vineyard derives its name from the little whirlwind spiral formations of soil which form in the afternoon as the gentle wind lifts the dry soil from the paths of the vineyard into swaying ‘dust devils’.  This natural phenomenon draws the attention of our overly protective Lechuza owls in the vineyard who sometimes take flight seemingly to chase them away!

  The 2017 Finca Decero Mini Ediciones Petit Verdot is a bold and expressive red wine crafted from the best grapes grown on the estate’s high-altitude vineyards in Mendoza, Argentina. Made from 100% Petit Verdot grapes that have been carefully harvested and hand-selected before being aged for 14 months in French oak barrels. The result is a deeply concentrated wine with intense aromas of dark berries, toasted oak, and hints of spice. On the palate, this wine is full-bodied with rich and complex flavours of black cherry, black currant, and vanilla. The finish is long and smooth, leaving an unforgettable impression.

  Of this 2017 vintage, only 9,936 bottles were made.

  2019 Savigny Les Beaune Blanc, Domaine Simon Bize

  £4195 Original price was: £4195.£2500Current price is: £2500. 40% saving

  This fresh and floral Savigny-Les-Beaune Blanc from Simon Bize is sure to take your breath away. Floral-driven aromatics lead to a rich yet balanced palate loaded with flavours of lemon zest, grapefruit rind, crushed stones, and baking spice, with a great minerality in the background.   Swirl in the glass for a few minutes and it reveals the kind of depth that would make you think you have a Premier Cru in your glass.

  The domaine has 2 hectares of Savigny-lès-Beaune Blanc, which Patrick planted in 1996 to increase the range of whites he could offer. This was pretty radical at the time for a village that was only known for its red wines.

  2020 Grenache, The Language Of Yes, Randall Grahm

  £4350 Original price was: £4350.£2600Current price is: £2600. 40% saving

  Randall Grahm is a legend of California winemaking, renowned for his trailblazing work with Rhône Varieties in the Central Coast. ‘The Language of Yes’ is his latest project, an attempt to capture the essence of Old World wines through the ‘uniqueness of the vineyards and the (mostly) sunny disposition of California’.

  This is an elegant and layered Grenache with opulent notes of strawberry, rhubarb and a hint of blood orange enveloped in autumnal spiced notes of cloves and sandalwood with an extremely persistent finish.

  The Grenache grapes come from the single vineyard ‘Rancho Réal’, in the Santa Maria Valley which is one of the coolest sites where vines are successfully grown in California. Here, the vines enjoy a particularly long growing season, thus developing an impressive degree of complexity and articulation. For example, the formation of ‘Rotundone’, the molecule that imparts the peppery quality to wines, is favoured by cooler climates, lower light conditions and a long hang-time on the vine.

  2019 ‘Compartir’, Château de l’Ou

  £4500 Original price was: £4500.£2700Current price is: £2700. 40% saving

  A full-bodied, rich and yet seamlessly elegant Roussillon expression with abundant notes of kirsch and blackberry layered with ground pepper, garrigue herbs and spice. Classic richness is perfectly balanced by considerable elegance.

  A blend of Syrah, Grenache and Carignan, the vines thrive at an elevation of 350 metres in the Maury terroir of the northern part of the Roussillon. The climate is Mediterranean, strongly influenced by cooling coastal breezes combined with mountain freshness from the foothills of the Pyrenees which balance the hot, arid summers. The terroir is made up of a mosaic of brown and black schist soils, which date back to the Cretaceous period. The schistous marl produces shallow soils, which force the vines to send their roots deep in search of water and nutrients. The vineyard is certified organic.

  2014 ‘Serpico’ Irpinia Aglianico, Feudi di San Gregorio

  £5900 Original price was: £5900.£3500Current price is: £3500. 41% saving

  A complex wine bursting with cherry jam, sweet spices, liquorice, coffee and cocoa notes balanced with a beautiful spicy minerality. A well-structured wine with great length.

  The Aglianico grapes are produced in a historic vineyard named “Dal Re”. This historic region of the Apennine countryside is known as Irpinia and it has a unique terroir and climate in which vineyards coexist with fruit trees, olives and aromatic herbs. The winds here divert a beneficial rainfall which creates a microclimate in Irpinia that differs from Campania, the winters though brief are snowy and cold and the summers can be wet and prolonged. The soils are volcanic, sandstone and marl. Each vineyard is closely monitored with a meteorological station, and the technologies of the new state-of-the-art wine cellar ensure that each vintage comes as close to perfection as possible.

  2022 Guidalberto, Tenuta San Guido

  £5500 Original price was: £5500.£3500Current price is: £3500. 36% saving

  Sassicaia’s younger brother Guidalberto consistently offers incredible value from the Tenuta San Guido stable.   Nicolo Incisa della Rocchetta, Tenuta San Guido’s owner, explains how Guidalberto came into being: “first of all, [there was] the desire to see what we could accomplish with Merlot, a grape that we had never used before; second, the desire to offer the consumer a wine which could be appreciated at a younger age compared to our veteran Sassicaia”.

  2022 was another stellar, sun-soaked vintage in Bolgheri where both Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon performed incredibly well. Succulent, fresh and wonderfully defined, Guidalberto is an exhilarating expression of the famous Tenuta San Guido terroir. Its juicy red and black fruits are overlaid with fragrant flowers, tobacco and graphite. There is a beautiful softness to this wine which means it can be enjoyed immediately or cellared for up to 10 years. Drink 2024-2035.

  2020 Syrah, The Language Of Yes, Randall Grahm

  Randall Grahm is a legend of California winemaking, renowned for his trailblazing work with Rhône Varieties in the Central Coast. ‘The Language of Yes’ is his latest project, an attempt to capture the essence of Old World wines through the ‘uniqueness of the vineyards and the (mostly) sunny disposition of California’.

  This is a deliciously complex Syrah, marked by its lively acidity and layers of vivid pepperiness, black olive, violets, liquorice and white flowers. Smooth and textured with a long finish.

  The Syrah and Viognier grapes come from the single vineyard ‘Rancho Réal’, in the Santa Maria Valley which is one of the coolest sites where vines are successfully grown in California.

  2000 Tokaji Aszu Eszencia ‘Imperium’, Chateau Dereszla, 375ml

  £12000 Original price was: £12000.£7200Current price is: £7200. 40% saving

  Château Dereszla is world-renowned for its sweet wines made from grapes affected by Botrytis cinerea, also known as “noble rot”. The wine is made from hand-picked grapes from Chateau Dereszla’s finest plots and made into a paste, which is then added to a base wine for fermentation for 14 days.  The wine is then aged in French oak for more than 2 years prior to bottling.  The elegant label replicates a design created by Carl Faberge for Dereszla’s centenary in 1907.

  This is a sensational Tokaji Aszu Eszencia from Dereszla.  Only produced in the very finest years, (made twice by Dereszla in the last 22 years), and now a defunct classification, this is a very rare slice of history in a bottle.  Incredibly sweet yet with perfectly poised acidity, the wine has a complex apricot and Seville orange marmalade fruit character mingled with spice and gingerbread notes. With an impressive 252 grams per litre of sugar, it is no wonder the wine is syrupy and very rich, but the constant freshness provided by the acidity keeps the wine balanced and makes it a wonderful match to dark chocolate desserts, good quality cheeseboards and rich pates.
