You can see Lake Garda from the top of La Grola vineyard which was bought by Giovanni Allegrini in 1979 to create Valpolicella’s first single vineyard Corvina. Intense yet elegant with a bouquet of wild berries, juniper, tobacco and coffee.

Given the elevated concentration of the noble components, this vintage was characterised by wines of optimal potential. The bouquet is intense and yet delicate. A robust structure, good alcohol levels and optimal polyphenolic components and acidity have allowed for wines which are typical and ideal for long cellaring. This is full-bodied with exceptional black fruit intensity. A big structure with supple tannins and a long, persistent finish.

The style is characterised by a fresh acidity that comes from the highest vineyards, extremely traditional aromas and an impressive structure, but with soft and elegant tannins

A beautiful deep, ruby hue with lots of almost confected cherry, blackcurrant and cranberries on the nose with a hint of liquorice. The palate has an explosion of brambly and hedgerow fruits with blueberries and cherries - this is a mid-weight vintage from Chateau Musar with excellent acidity and fine tannins

The deep alluvial gravels of the Martinborough Terraces and a blend of clones grown in a very sheltered spot produce this classic example of New World Pinot.

Ou Hoofgebou Cabernet Sauvignon is an old school Stellenbosch Cabernet. Full bodied and dark fleshy berry fruit in a smooth sheen of oak.

The wine has a bouquet of wild bramble berry like fruit that is backed up by layers of all-spice and cinnamon. On the palate there are layers of summer berries that give way to a rich yet elegant mid-palate. The wine has a deceptive complexity that shows a lingering finish that has hints of Christmas cake!!

Full bodied style with intense colour and prominent varietal character, rich plummy flavours and a nice soft velvety finish.

Named after the signature spice blend of South Africa, this huge wine is made from classic Rhône varieties. The blend changes every year to incorporate the best grapes from the Swartland vintage.

Bouchard Finlayson's Hannibal blend was originally prompted by the classic taste and palate of Italian varieties: Sangiovese and Nebbiolo.

Gold in colour, full mouthfeel with big concentrated fruit flavours. Well integrated oak. It's classical in style with all the elements in harmony, not overpowering as some barrel matured Chardonnays can be. We think this very similar to a Puligny Montrachet style!

Upfront black fruit with lively aromas of oak and hints of chocolate on the finish. The Kriekbult Pinotage expresses an abundance of black fruit flavours from blackberries to cassis with balanced oak aromas from barrel maturation. A wine with excellent balance, a lovely core, and a long juicy aftertaste

An opulent mouthful of classic Pinotage.

Mallorca's 2nd largest producer, Macià Batle make distinctive and characterful wines - this is a full-bodied red with a rich, smooth finish.

Intense red fruit with some lovely balsamic notes, black olives and minerality held up by a refreshing acidity. This certainly has a Burgundian vibe about it.

Ripe fruit, heavy oak and related spice and wood-grain aromas create a full nose that's classic for white Rioja.

From 80 - 100 year old Garnacha vines in the wilds of a biosphere 800 metres above sea level this luscious ripe intense Rioja marries juicy silky blueberry and plum fruits with subtle notes of wild herbs and spice. A very special wine from a very special place.

This is polished and silky textured, with a fabulously unique taste. Dried pear, vanilla, cinnamon, honey are all in there. Beautiful wine.

An abundance of lemon zest, tangerine oil, quince and white fruits are leaping all over your mouth. White almonds and minerality give this a wonderful balance

The creaminess and volume of the ten months of contact in double lees, the mouth is full and sweet.

Creu Celta comes from Salanques, one of the coolest ‘climats’ in Priorat. All fruit has been sourced from our vineyard in Salanques, one of the coolest ‘terroirs’ in Priorat. Full flavoured red with chocolate, cherry, plum, pine and smoky nuances. Rich, complex and satisfying.

Specially selected grapes from minimum 50-year old vines ensure the complexity of one of Rioja's finest.

Very balanced and refined Cabernet with blackberry, blackcurrant and floral character. Medium to full bodied, subtle and complex.

Sourced from three estate vineyards in the Livermore valley which are planted on sloping benchs to produce luscious wines with deep richness. Each vineyard is picked ripe to accentuate the deep jammy fruit flavours, yet the alcohol remains balanced. Aromas and flavors of raspberry, blackberry, spice and black pepper. With a firm tannic backbone and ripe chewy finish.

Golden straw in colour, an attractive nose reveals notes of citrus, ripe stone fruit, toast and a hint of smoke. Rich and creamy in texture, the palate is concentrated and generous with an abundance of layered ripe fruit and harmoniously integrated oak. Crisp and focused on the finish, this is an excellent Californian chardonnay that offers immense drink-ability.
