Forest floor and black pepper add savoury detail, while flinty, wet-stone minerality carries the finely structured finish.
Raimat 2024 Albariño
White peach, star fruit and apricot fill a juicy, fresh palate. A pithy tangerine twist sharpens the finish, keeping the ripe fruit lively and clean.

Caves Sao Joao 1985 Dao Porta dos Cavaleiros
Mature dark cherry and red berry sit beneath tobacco, pencil lead, graphite and dark chocolate, with damp earth, mushroom and leather adding further savoury depth.

Bottle variation is expected; stand upright and decant carefully around sediment.
Domaine de Trevallon 2011 IGP Alpilles
Lush dark fruit meets dried herbs, black pepper and a cool stony note in a deeply savoury expression.

Decant for an hour and serve with lamb, grilled meats or lentils.
