Description
The Alcaudon Rioja Crianza is a silky smooth, impeccably balanced red that marries fruit and oak impeccably. Made from mostly hand harvested Tempranillo with a bit of Garnacha (15%) and Mazuelo (5%), this old vine red is fermented in stainless steel and then aged for 12 months in a mixture of French and American oak before resting in bottle for 6 months.
The inviting nose shows ripe red fruits along with subtle spice and vanilla notes. Fresh red berries on the palate are joine by supportive oak and lovely lifted acidity.

2022 Promis Ca Marcanda, Gaja, IGT Toscana
Merlot
The Ca Marcanda Promis is a complex wine with an undeniable elegance. The nose is rich and concentrated, with blueberry, liquorice and cocoa hints. It starts fresh and then develops balsamic notes and scents of graphite, before becoming more mellow in character with a rhubarb and menthol note. The palate is voluminous with fine-grained and silky tannins on the finish.

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!

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.
