Smooth, easy drinking and up there with the more well known Chilean and French Merlots... Great wine growing country in the Dolomites give great character and depth to this otherwise unassuming variety.
-
Intense and fruit driven Primitivo, full of jammy fruit and Vanilla. Exquisitely smooth, great to be enjoyed on its own or with spare ribs.
-
Full bodied and juicy with a hint of spice, a perfect buddy for your Bolognese!

•Red wine / Barbera 100% •Vineyard exposed to South •Soft pressing of the grapes; fermentation with maceration of the skin for 12 days in steel tank. •After malolactic fermentation, aged in steel tanks for 8 months and 12 months in big oak barre; refinement in the bottle of 6 months before selling •maximum expression of Barbera: every time you close the nose it discovers something different, a very complex fruity (blackberry, plum and cherry) and spicy wine (nutmeg, cocoa, tobacco and leather) with long and well-balanced aftertaste. •3000 bottles DVino Says - Worth the money on the nose alone! Only made in the very best years this beautifully aged Barbera rests for ten months in steel tank before a further 8 months in oak. This is the maximum expression of Barbera. Sourced exclusively from a tiny independent importer, with fewer than 250 cases produced annually. Very Special.

Hand selected from 3 top level vineyards, this former Decanter World Wine Awards winner delivers stunningly pure and ripe fruit, with lashings of Blackcurrant, Wild Strawberry and Cranberries. A wonderful example of Amarone.
-
A previous winner of a Decanter Magazine commendation and a silver in the International Wine Challenge this is an incredibly powerful and full on Barbera. Sourced exclusively from one independent importer to the UK, this is something very special for lovers of powerful Italian Reds.
-
Vivacious, bright ruby red in colour, smooth and soft with an intense bouquet of ripe Red Cherries and Violets. Good acidity on the finish making it the perfect partner for pasta and tomato dishes, or Pizza night!
-
Ruby red with purple hues this wine is youthful, fresh and fruit forward. A lick of sweet vanilla on the finish ties everything up beautifully.
-
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.
-
Fresher than the Reserva but still with plenty of trademark Rioja character, Black Fruit, Cinnamon and toasty Oak. Really complex and well structured, especially for a Crianza.
-
Made from one of the purest and most indigenous clones of Tinta de Toro, this is a bright fresh red made naturally and without additives. Raspberry and mineral notes, super value!
-
We tasted this wine with Manuel from the winery, it's a very fruit forward and modern style of Rioja. Wild Strawberries and herbs with an inkling of Sweet Spice. Oak is used sparingly but is noticeable on the finish.
-
A 100% Tempranillo from vines aged between 20 and 60 years. 24 months ageing in barrel gives plenty, though not excessive oak. Glorious ripe Red Fruit and a soft supple mouth-feel. Beautiful with Lamb dishes.
-
A beautifully crafted, fruit forward 100% Tempranillo from La Mancha in Spain. Ripe Red and Black fruit abound, with 10 months in American oak adding soft Vanilla on the finish.
-
A fun and fruity easy drinker from Spain. Great for parties and gatherings. A nice glugger on its own or with Saturday night take away!
-
Deep ruby in colour with Black Pepper, Blueberry and Raspberry flavours. Great sun exposure for the vines and an average age of 25 years produces a very generous Claret indeed.
-
A wine of great elegance and class from the oldest wine merchant established in Bordeaux. Red Berry on the nose with oaky notes. Classic dry but powerful Bordeaux on the palate, with a lovely lingering finish. Top Claret!
-
An outstanding little Claret made from 80% Merlot, this wine is deep purple in colour with a silky mouth-feel. Up front flavours of Blackcurrant and Spice. Th finish is long and complex. An excellent accompaniment to Sunday lunch.
-
Family owned since 1898 by the Couderc family, this wine gives so much for its relatively modest price. sweet on the attack, lashings of fruit and on the drier side.
-
Sourced from vineyards situated close to the magnificent Ch Petrus, this is a proper Right Bank Bordeaux. Merlot dominated, quite dry on the attack. Comes into its own when served with roast beef or lamb.
-
Owned by the same family for 5 generations, sandy gravel soils and a ruby hue on inspection. The nose is all ripe red fruit, cedar wood and spice. Balanced on the palate with silky tannins. Both expressive and elegant
-
Esteemed appellations like Margaux produce wonderfully rich yet tannic wines with generous acidity, fruit and smoothness. Flavours of dried Sultanas and Dates in the background behind a just ripe Plummy taste to the fore. This wine comes into its own when served with food, particularly roasted red meats.
-
With hand-picked fruit from a site close to the church of Pomerol, this wine is stunning. The blend is 90% Merlot, with the rest being Cabernet. First tasted with Emeric from Vinectar and was blown away. Ripe red fruit and subtle oak, unmistakably Bordeaux, dryish finish. Such a pleasure to drink.
-
Located on the great plateau of Pomerol and made from 2 small parcels of vines in the village of Riffat. Marrying power with finesse this would be a great gift for a lover of Bordeaux and will age well if tucked away.
