Description

Lopez de Heredia is an ultra traditional winery where little has changed since it’s founding in 1877.  The wines are generally kept in the cellar for longer than other producers and also have enormous ageing potential. 


The 2011 Rioja Reserva is very typical of the house style with rich, leathery red and black fruits, savoury aromas mixed with pot pourri and incense.  This vintage has a wonderful freshness to it and although forward and open after lots of breathing, this is a wine that will give plenty of drinking pleasure up to the late 2030’s and beyond.

2020 Chateau Saransot-Dupre, Listrac Medoc, Magnum

Bordeaux Blend

Chateau Saransot-Dupre is a favourably sited 17 hectares property that lies between Fourcas Dupré and Fourcas Hosten in Listrac.  Due to Listrac’s cooler temperatures, Merlot and Cabernet Franc are favoured over Cabernet Sauvignon to form the majority of the blend, helping them achieve optimum ripeness.  Much like Chateau Fourcas Hosten, the wines have improved year on year since 2010 and the property were put on the radar thanks to a certain Robert Parker hailing the 2010 vintage as 'classed growth quality'.  High praise indeed!

Pinot Noir

This light to medium-bodied Pinot Noir from Domaine la Colombette is an utterly delicious raspberry and strawberry stashed red wine which over delivers on quality for the price.

Carignan

 The Les Betes Rousses Rouge is very easy going with hints of spice, plums and red berries on the nose, it is beautfully rounded and balanced, with gentle tannins on the finish.  A cracking mid-week red.

2023 Beaujolais Villages ‘Cuvee Six’, Caves De Julienas Chaintre

Gamay

The Beaujolais Villages 'Cuvee Six' from Caves De Julienas Chaintre just gets better and better with each vintage, showing soft, rounded red fruits and vibrant cherry flavours.  Complex enough to make one sit up and think yet easy going and supple at the same time.  Great for lighter lunches and it can also be chilled lightly when the weather warms up!
