2019 KWV The Mentors Orchestra, Western Cape

Bordeaux Blend

The KWV Mentors Orchestra Red wine is a multi-region, modern Bordeaux Blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Malbec, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Carmenere that shows an abundance of rich, dark berry fruits, with layers of blueberry, plum and blackcurrant.  The palate is balanced with concentrated, sweet dark fruit, hints of pencil lead and a herbal edge.  The finish is long and well balanced with nicely integrated oak, suggesting a good few years graceful ageing ahead for this complex red.

2011 Rioja Reserva Vina Tondonia, Lopez de Heredia, DOCa Rioja

Red Blend

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. 

£46.00

2016 Les Charmes de Kirwan, Chateau Kirwan, AC Margaux

Bordeaux Blend

Les Charmes de Kirwan is the second wine of 3rd Growth Château Margaux and, like it's more grown up sybling, has benefitted from the massive investment program in both the winery and the vineyard in recent years.  It is generally made with the younger vines on the property but receives exactly the same care and attention as the wine. 

£70.00

2019/21 Sao Abrivat, Mas Blanch I Jove, Costers Del Segre

Tempranillo

This wine shows intense cherry red colours and has aromas of mature red fruits with spices such as vanilla, cinnamon and a touch of black pepper. On the palate it is a soft yet structured wine, open, balanced and warming.
