It’s a blend of Grechetto, Vermentino, Procanico and Chardonnay. Straw-coloured with a spicy, peach and green plum bouquet, the wine is medium-bodied, dry, with the flavour of passionfruit. A nicely balanced wine selling at an attractive price.
Ruby garnet colour. The fine nose shows classy red fruit notes and barely perceptible oak. Silky texture with a tight and firm backbone of fine tannins that turn slightly astringent in the finish, a sign of aging potential (3 to 5 years).
Layered, structured, elegant, fresh and delicately powerful, all the elements in balance, alluring pretty aromas, red berry, orange peel and spice, super expressive and ethereal, but with staying power. From a tiny producer that flies under the radar. Seek this one out.
Light straw colour with a minerally citrus nose. Light- to medium-bodied, tart, with grapefruit and grapefruit pith flavours.
Clear medium-deep pink tinged with copper. Medium strength nose showing strawberry, apple and orange. On the palate, medium-bodied, tasting like strawberry yoghurt with some mango coulis. Delicious with a BLT sandwich on the deck. Drink up.
This wine bears the Vigno (Vignadores de Carignan) Association trademark. By law, any wine ordained Vigno must come from the Maule Valley, be a minimum 65% Carignan, from vines that are at least 30 years old, unirrigated and aged for 2 years before being released. This wine includes 34% Mourvedre, helping produce an impressively concentrated offering with layers of dark cherry, plum, anise, chocolate. Tannins are gritty, so serve alongside some grilled sausage or porchetta.
Ripe, sweet raspberry and candied cherries rule this simple, easy blend of Tempranillo and Cabernet Sauvignon from Vino de la Tierra de Castilla. A touch of sweet oak supports the juicy fruit, providing enough structure to partner with grilled burgers. Crack and drink this great-value wine now.
