Lovely lifted red berries and violet. Silky texture and great length. Will happily buy again.

Vivid salmon pink. Lovely lifted red berries and violet. Full-bodied with firm, ripe tannins. A clean, refreshing close. Outstanding value for the price.

Lovely lifted red berries and violet. Silky texture and great length. Punches well above its weight.

Inky violet core. Lovely a nose of citrus and white flowers. Rounded, generous and supple. The finish is long and savoury. Punches well above its weight.

Bright garnet with brick edges. Lovely aromas of black fruit and cedar. Silky texture and great length. The aftertaste is bright and mineral. A serious wine that rewards patience.

A pale straw gold. Lovely ripe plum and warm spice. Elegant, fresh and persistent. Crowd-pleasing and food-friendly.
