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.

Spatburgunder Trocken, Hanewald-Schwerdt, Magnum

Pinot Noir

The Spatburgunder Trocken, Hanewald-Schwerdt has bright strawberry and cherry notes which lead the way with some delicious savoury character and good minerality. Intense and medium bodied this is designed to be drunk easily and could be served with pigeon or duck.

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!

2023 Mercurey Rouge 1er Cru, Domaine Meunier

Pinot Noir

The grapes for this wine are hand harvested from 2 parcels in the heart of Mercurey where the soil is clay and limestone. They spend 10-15 days fermenting in the tank before being put into French oak barrels, 30% of which are new.  The wine then spends 12 months in barrel before being blended and bottled.
