Description
The Itatino Cinsault is a delicious, vibrant red which reflects the granite soils of Itata in the glass. Intense and concentrated with bright cherry fruit and wonderful freshness on the palate. The finish is stony, fresh and thirst quenching, begging you to go back for another glass. This wine is delicious in it’s youth but should age gracefully for several years from vintage, gaining in complexity as it does so.
Sourced from 40-year-old bush vines in the Itata vineyard which is located 20 km from the Pacific Ocean in a straight line, at an altitude of 300 metres above sea level. The soil here is composed of granite, with large amounts of quartz stones with different degrees of fragmentation. It is deep and permeable, which allows good root growth. 10 day cold soak at 8°C. Fermentation in concrete oval casks to maintain the freshness, nerve and energy of the wine, as well as the expression of the variety and the ‘terroir’.

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.

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.
