A deliciously approachable wine from this excellent value Cru Bourgeois producer. The nose shows plenty of red fruit and subtle oak. On the palate, red currants and sweet spice with rounded tannins. Drinking well now.

Cava Brut Reserve Francesc Ricart - (Bottle - 1/75cl)

Cava can sometimes get a bit of a bad wrap with some people having the misconception that its a 'cheap' drink with little to offer. However this is not the case, and its popularity is increasing as wine drinkers begin to see it as a good alternative to more expensive Champagnes. This is a fresh Cava, full of zesty fruit flavours with a touch of honey and floral notes on the palate.

2015 Beneventano Aglianico Igt Vesevo Campania (Bottle - 1/75cl)

Tucked away in the far south of Italy, in Campania, Vesevo produces a range of wines which tend to be fermented at cooler temperatures similar to those found in New Zealand - the wine makers believe that this enhances the flavours giving a purer taste to the wines. The Anglianico from Vesevo is complex and intense on the palate with notes of red fruits - cranberries, cherries and raspberries, this is followed by a touch of spice and a slight hint of vanilla on the lengthy finish. 

Dandelion Legacy Barossa 30 year old Pedro Ximenez (Half Btl - 1/37.5cl)

This wine is hand bottled without filtration or fining, and averages 30 years of age. Zesty on the nose, this sweet wine is packed with marmalade and honey flavours along with citrus and apricot. An intense and dry finish follows. Lovely served chilled as an aperitif, or matched with an indulgent desert - either way we think its a must this Christmas.
