Amber and luminous. Lovely fresh-cut grass and gooseberry. Dense and structured, built to age. A warm, lasting finale. Try it with mushroom risotto. A solid, dependable choice.

Dense purple-black. Lovely mineral and saline on the nose. Bright and zesty with a saline edge. Lingering notes of spice and dark fruit. Outstanding value for the price.

Brilliant pale lemon. Lovely fresh-cut grass and gooseberry. Bright and zesty with a saline edge. The aftertaste is bright and mineral. A solid, dependable choice.

Lovely hints of oak, vanilla and tobacco. Elegant, fresh and persistent. A benchmark for the region.

Lovely a nose of citrus and white flowers. Crisp acidity and a clean mid-palate. Punches well above its weight.

Inky violet core. Lovely fresh-cut grass and gooseberry. Elegant, fresh and persistent. Highly recommended.

Lovely aromas of black fruit and cedar. Rounded, generous and supple. A serious wine that rewards patience.

Bright garnet with brick edges. Lovely scents of stone fruit and honey. Dense and structured, built to age. The finish is long and savoury. A benchmark for the region.
