Black/purple, as any self-respecting Petite Sirah should be! Full-bodied and intense, there are masses of cassis, blackberries, dark cherry, cocoa, vanilla and liquorice. Tannins are present but rounded and the protracted finish augurs well for prime rib.
Clear medium-deep plum red. Fresh, medium-intensity nose of candy apple, raspberry and sour cherry. Light-bodied and simple, crisp and tasty with pomegranate and cranberry flavours. Best while still fresh; drink up.
Classic Argentinean Malbec nose with currant fruit and delicate spice. Harmoniously integrated red and dark fruit on the palate backed by supple tannins with notes of chocolate, spice and impeccably balanced finish.
Floral, tangerine and citrus, intense honeysuckle on a luscious palate with viscous mouthfeel and vibrant, citrus orange finish.
A favourite year after year but 2020 might be the best vintage I had from this producer. A fine Provence example but with more character than you might expect. Fresh acid with expressive notes of grapefruit, orange and dried herbs and subtle wet stone notes. Made for bouillabaisse served with aioli.
Medium-deep gold. Faint nose of apple, a whiff of sauerkraut, caramel from the oak. Medium-bodied, slightly sweet, tastes a bit like a slightly diluted fruit cocktail. Tree-huggers beware: oak was not spared in the making of this wine. Drink up.
Very Burgundian in style, medium-ruby in colour; cherry and raspberry nose with a note of oak spice; light and elegant on the palate with cherry and raspberry flavours. Pricey but spoil yourself.
