Very dense colour for such a good value wine. Smoky ripe berry fruits and balanced tannins deliver a lovely concentrated finish.

There is no doubt in my mind that if this were a Central Otago Pinot Noir you would pay £18 no problem! Don't let the drab label fool you this is the real deal. Rich, meaty and complex. Drinking beautifully now.

Limited cases arrive in the UK of the Morande Adventure Range. This cracking Carignan blend includes a dash of Chardonnay giving the rich and spicy Carignan a more lifted and floral quality. This is definitely a wine to get out the best glassware for, and really savour.

Not much to touch this in the Pinot Noir stakes for under a tenner. Lots of fresh Berry Fruit with soft spicy notes. A great finish and will pair well with light pasta dishes and tomato based sauces.
-
A superb Reserva from one of the oldest producers in Rioja. Lots of dried and stewed fruit flavours to compliment fresh Raspberry and Cherry. Fine tannins deliver a touch of dryness on the finish. A great accompaniment to roast lamb.

Picked for its unique location and climate in the Cachapoal Valley, Secreto is a special project run by two families focussing on the terroir of the area. There's Blackcurrant, Caramel and Toast on the palate with firm tannins and a long finish.

A revelation at DVino Wines and "Like a baby Amarone!". An incredibly full and powerful, fully organic Primitivo from Puglia in southern Italy. Just like Amarone a portion of the grapes used are dried to add even more body and complexity. Like drinking a Black Forest gateau!
-
A great all round glugger enough varietal identity to keep one interested whilst versatile enough to go with most foods and occasions.
-
Prime fruit from select vineyards help to create a Rioja with gorgeous purity of fruit. Limited use of oak allows the Tempranillo to shine through. Soft and smooth to the finish.
-
Bright ruby in colour this is a soft, expressive Merlot from the Central Valley in Chile. Easy-drinking enough to drink on its own but will also work well with a Sunday roast.
-
The second wine of what is widely considered one of the best Chateauneuf, "Le Telegraphe", this wine is made to be drunk now. Bold complex Dried Fruit and Herbs. Stunning with roast beef!
-
Containing 2-3% fortified wine this is an absolute belter of a sparkling Shiraz. Powerful and intense fruit flavours of Blackcurrant and Damson... but with a frothy, fizzy mouth-feel. Try it!
