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.
-
Bosh! Bucket loads of Lime, Quince and Green Apple combine beautifully on the palate to produce a wine full of flavour and fruit intensity. A lovely tart snap on the finish rounds it all off.
-
The only independent Rioja producer in the region, Valdemar are specialists in sourcing the finest grapes from a 290 hectare area. A previous 95 point wine from Tim Atkins. This wine is the perfect balance between richness and acidity.

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!
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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!
-
A fruit forward tropical Grillo with good intensity and flavours of Mango, Papaya and Quince. Hints of Jasmine on the nose of this lean dry Italian white wine. A crisp, dry and tart wine to be enjoyed on summer evenings, or with fresh salad dishes.

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.
-
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.

•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.

Ripe and zesty Pecorino from Italy with lots of fresh live fruit. On the nose is poached Pears which carries through on to the palate. A sumptuous length, where the flavour continues to develop. A great wine to drink on its own or with white fish or summer salads.

Intense and fruit driven Primitivo, full of jammy fruit and Vanilla. Exquisitely smooth, great to be enjoyed on its own or with spare ribs.

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.

The Dolomites in Northern Italy provide the perfect location for Pinot Grigio. Well drained soils and cooling breezes from the mountains themselves allow the grapes to gain more complexity and flavour.

A vibrant and fresh Australian Chardonnay, with flavours of White Pear, White Peach and Tropical Fruits. Try with grilled seafood, chicken dishes or creamy vegetable soups.

A full bodied and spicy Shiraz bursting with Black Cherry and Red Berry fruit. Fine tannins and a peppery spice with a long and seductive finish. Spicy!

Hand-picked grapes, selected from old vines in McLaren Vale are fermented in open top casks, before maturation in French and American oak. Every inch a true, artisan Shiraz!

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!
-
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.
-
Very dense colour for such a good value wine. Smoky ripe berry fruits and balanced tannins deliver a lovely concentrated finish.
-
Full bodied and smooth enriched with ripe Black Fruit flavours. Would accompany Barbecued lamb chops with garlic and rosemary.

Ripe Pear and Nectarine, classic rich and ripe Chardonnay. Very easy drinking but with plenty of complexity as well. The finish is elegant and long.

A lighter and fresher style of Chardonnay from Oz. Still with great fruit intensity such as crunchy Apple and White Melon.

Pale yellow in colour with golden highlights. It offers aromas of Tropical Fruit, with gentle Toasty notes. Fresh and rounded in the mouth, a lovely wine with chicken or pasta dishes.
-
Deep in colour, with Violet highlights, it offers intense aromas of Red Fruit and Plums. A super little midweek glugger!

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.
-
The 2014 received 93 points from Tim Atkins Chile Report, not hard to see why... Lashings of ripe Black Fruit, White Pepper and Garden Herb with a twist of Sweet Spice on the end. Perfect with seared red meats.

Intense and fruit forward Gewurtz from Morande in Chile. High density planting yields grapes with high concentration of flavour. Rose Petal, Limes, Quince and Sweet Spice. Great with lightly spiced Mexican or Thai food.
