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.

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.

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.

From Vinaceous's most revered vineyards this dry crisp Chardonnay is more akin to Chablis than to most rich and full bodied Aussie Chardonnays. Taught acidity and only the tiniest lick of oak through barrel fermentation make this a lip-smacking and refreshing New World white.
