Description

The Gloria S Garnacha is a beautiful example of modern Grenache, balancing elegant, silkily textured fruit with lightness that belies it’s complexity.  This vibrant red wine is 50% whole bunch fermented and then aged in a mixture of used French Oak and clay Amphorae, before resting in bottle for 20 months prior to release.  Impecabbly balanced with soft tannins and bags of fruit, this is a delightful wine for lovers of first class Grenache.


Ver Sacrum is the brainchild of a small group of viticultors / winemakers, self-styled as “Team Grenachista”. The aim of the project is to champion a comeback of the Mediterranean varieties that Argentina lost after the 1950´s in favour of Malbec plantings. They grow Grenache Noir, Mourvèdre, Roussanne, Marsanne, Syrah, Mencía, Carignan, Teroldego and Nebbiolo, as well as some Malbec, Cabernet Franc and Pinot Noir, with the wines being made in a garage or rented warehouse.  The philosphy is to “bottle the vineyard”, and winemaking is therefore as hands off as possible, utilising natural yeast,  low intervention and primitive vessels.  This restrained approach to winemaking produces wines that lower in alcohol, naturally higher in acidity and posess a great purity of fruit and elegance.

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.

Vandal Combat Rouge Field Blend.JPG

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.
