Description

This terrific red comes from Nebbiolo grapes grown in the Valtellina Superiore area in the districts of Berbenno, Sondrio, Montagna e Teglio, between 350 and 500 metres above sea level. The best quality grapes are dried for 2 months in the “fruttaio”, a ventilated area on the top floor of the CasaClima Wine cellar.


The wine displays a beautiful dark garnet-red colour alongside orange overtones. Pronounced varietal aromas abound on the nose with polished spicy edges of vanilla and hints of dried fruit and flowers. It has warm, dry and persistent flavours with silky textured, lingering fruit on the palate. Powerful yet with great delicacy, the warming fruits carry through to a finely balanced finish with beautiful freshness.


This is a fabulous wine to try if you like Amarone/Passimiento styles.

2022 Lirac Rouge Cuvee Elie, Domaine La Loyanne

Rhone Blend

This relatively young family owned Domaine was created in 2001 by vignerons with 4 generations of vinegrowing and winemaking expertise under their belts.  They own some seriously old vines in superb sites in the Southern Rhone on a mixture of soils of red sand, clay and the classic 'Galet' pebbles associated with Chateauneuf du Pape.  As a result, their wines posess a wonderful depth and concentration.

Vandal Combat Rouge Field Blend.JPG

2022 Gonzo Combat Rouge, Vandal Wine Company

Red Blend

The Gonzo Combat Rouge is a rather unusual field blend of Pinot Noir, Cabernet Franc and Viognier which are co-fermented with whole bunch fermentation.  The results is a beautifully supple yet plush and ripe red wine with sweet, spicy raspberry and cherry fruit. We've found it drinks best slightly chilled on a warm evening.
