Description
The Rioja Valdepoleo from Bodegas Pujanza has a dense black cherry colour in the glass that leads to an intense nose showing warm aromas of up front red berry fruits with subtle notes of black fruit coming through. Fresh and complex on the palate yet well structured with a wonderful purity of fruit, polished tannins and an elegant, lengthy finish.
Valdepoleo is one of the most important vineyards belonging to Bodegas y Viñedos Pujanza and the distinctive wines that it produces are a clear expression of the terroir. Carlos San Pedro uses the grapes from here to craft a characterful harmonious Rioja which is fresh, vibrant and very subtle. It comes from a vineyard divided into seven plots which are all vinified and aged seperately. Prior to bottling, blind tasting is carried out to decide what percentage of wine from each plot will go into the final bottle.

2020 ‘O Font’ Les Deux Cols, Vin de France
Grenache Blend
Les Deux Cols is a joint venture between Ireland's leading Rhone importer, Simon Tyrell and Charles Derain, one time Sommelier to Alain Ducasse at Le Louis XV in Paris. This Grenache Noir dominated blend is whole bunch and foot trodden, natural yeast fermented in concrete tanks and then matured in a mixture of old barriques and larger demi-muid barrels. Pale in the glass, this is fresh and easy with red fruits and a hint of spice. Hand harvesting takes place at least a week earlier than the neighbouring properties allowing for a fresher style, and all vineyards are either organic or in conversion with some biodynamic practices in use.

2020 Cabernet Franc Seleccion, Bodegas Rio Del Elorza, Mendoza
Cabernet Franc
The Verum Cabernet Franc Seleccion, Bodegas Rio Del Elorza has classic elements on the nose including wild strawberry, blackberry, pencil shavings and a hint of blackcurrant leaf. Lovely ripe fruits with a hint of stalky/vegetal character but not too much greenness, instead offering more body and depth of fruit and a slight touch of herbal mint. The full-bodied palate is elegant with firm tannins but a vital balancing acidity. Cedar notes show from the use of French oak and the finish is dominated by bright red fruit and mocha spice.
