Description

The Duckhorn Merlot a simply delicious blend of 76% Merlot, 22% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2% Cabernet Franc.  Luxurious and enticing on the nose, the palate is sublimely balanced with plum, dark cherry and chocolate alongside hints of spice.  The silky tannins and depth of fruit added by the Cabernet give complexity and texture and keep one coming back for glass after glass.   


This plush red is drinking beautifully now but will continue to provide immense drinking pleasure for at least 5-8 years from vintage, and perhaps longer.

Bordeaux Blend

The 2011 vintage had a hard act to follow coming after two exceptional years in Bordeaux and whilst the wines aren't as showy as the '09's and '10's they are charming and drinking beautifully with a decade in bottle.

2023 Gamay, Domaine Moulin Camus, IGP Loire

Gamay

This 100% Gamay from Domaine Moulin Camus comes from grapes grown on a slope of pure mica schist which gives the wine juicy, rounded red fruits a bit of tautness and minerality.  A warmer than normal, sulphur free maceration for three days helps bring out some warmth and roundness to the fruit, making it slightly beaujolais'esque but without the bubble gum/commercial edge that one would normally find in this price range.

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.
