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.

A Syrah dominated blend from one of the most famous French appellations of them all! Lashings of ripe Blackberry, Sweet Spice and Earthy Tones. Intense, dense and brooding on the palate.

•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.

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!

A blend of both red and white Mediterranean grape varieties, dry farmed in the Maule Valley, Chile. Light in colour but intense and powerful. So much complexity, Wild Herb, Strawberry, Damsons and Earthy tones.

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.

94 2000 Bodegas Urbina Selección Crianza (13.5%) A wine for lovers of mature, traditional Rioja at a very appealing price, this is a super Crianza that showcases Tempranillo grapes from the cool climate area of Cuzcurrita. Bright, focused and refreshing, it has aromas of Asian spices and tobacco leaf, redcurrant and summer pudding flavours, subtle oak and silky tannins. Delicious. -
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.

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 stunning blend of Grenache, Shiraz and Mataro from Langmeil gives a wine of exquisite power and poise. Blackberry, Mulberry and Sweet Spice with dense and brooding undertones. A cracker!
