Description

A classic Amarone della Valpolicella, the Terre di San Zeno from Corteforte is a wonderfully decadent and sophisticated wine.  Fermentation takes place in stainless steel and the wine is then aged in steel for a further 24 – 36 months before ageing in large French oak and then smaller French oak barrels for 12 months in each.  The wine is then bottled and released following an additional 12 month period in bottle.  Although approachable when released, this tremendous Amarone will continue to develop in bottle for a good decade following release. 


Complex Kirsch and dark cherry fruits mingle with Liquorice and spice on the ethereal palate that is balanced and powerful. 


65% Corvina, Corvinone, 20% Rondinella, 10% Molinara and 5% other native grapes

Pinot Noir

The Bourgogne Pinot Noir Epineuil from Domaine Fournillon is a beautifully fresh Pinot with bright, red fruit flavours and supple tannins. This delightful red wine comes from parcels of vines in the village of Epineuil, with the majority of Pinot Noir grapes are harvested mechanically for efficiency so they can be transported to the estate for maceration in stainless steel tank for a period of 2 weeks, with regular punch downs. After separating the skins from the juice it is aged in stainless steel tanks for a minimum of 15 months.

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!
