Whispering Angel Cotes De Provence Rose 2021, 75cl 750ml
Caves d’Esclans is the brightest new star of the Cotes de Provence. Established in 2006 when Bordeaux-born Sacha Lichine bought the Chateau d’Esclans, this dynamic producer harnesses both the chateaugrown grapes and fruit from local growers to create a stunning range of highly sought-after wines. Patrick Leon, the former winemaker at MoutonRothschild, oversees production.
The grapes come from several top vineyards in the region of La Motte en Provence, with classic chalky-clay soils and southerly exposure. Harvesting only took place between sunrise and noon to avoid picking in the hottest part of the day.
The grapes were sorted three times, both electronically and manually, before destemming and a light crushing at 7-8C. The free-run and direct-pressed juice fractions were both vinified in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats, and there was twice-weekly batonnage before bottling in the December following the harvest.

The palest of pale pinks, this delicate rose offers a core of pretty stone fruit with some herbal notes. The palate is dry but smooth-textured, with an appetising mineral finish.

Tommasi Amarone Della Valpolicella Wine, 75 cl
Joe Fattorini’s Tasting Note: “A big grand wine for a great occasion. Complexity is the mark of a great wine, and this has it in spades. A concentrated cherry fruit from dried, concentrated grapes that make this wine. And then waves of balsamic, cake, meat, herbs and spice. It’s a heady mix in a deftly crafted beast. Big meaty dishes and cheeses are the order of the day here.”
Tommasi viticoltori is located in Pedemonte, a small village in the heart of the “Valpolicella Classico” region, in the northwest part of Verona.
The most important and prestigious wine is the stately Amarone, one of the great wines of the world. It is produced from the four Valpolicella grape varieties (Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella and Oseleta), which are cultivated high on hillside terraces.SKU: n/a -

McGuigan Black Label Red, 75 cl (Case of 6)
Delightful aromas of cherry and blackberry fruits matched with a hint of spice.
The first thing you notice about this wine is the lovely berry and spice aromas. Following this is the wonderful flavours of spicy plum, cherry and blackberry that flow through the mouth, resulting in an approachable fruit driven wine with a smooth and mouth filling finish. It is nicely balanced with great fruit characters and a persistence of flavour.
Our famous Black Label Red is a very versatile wine that is especially rewarding with tomato based Italian, spicy Asian food and pizza.SKU: n/a
