2020
Antinori Tignanello 2020
A benchmark Tuscan red led by Sangiovese, with ripe cherry, blackberry, violet, tobacco, cedar and sweet spice. The palate is concentrated yet energetic, layering dark fruit, cocoa and savoury herbs over vivid acidity, fine-grained tannins and integrated oak. Long and refined through the finish, it rewards air and pairs naturally with steak, lamb or richly flavoured Italian dishes.
Chateau de Beaucastel Chateau du Pape 2020
Château de Beaucastel Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2020 is a classic, Mourvèdre-led Southern Rhône red that shows the estate’s trademark depth and savoury complexity. Aromas of black cherry, blackberry, dried rose, lavender, liquorice, leather and garrigue lead into a layered palate of dark fruit, pepper, earth and warm spice.
Full-bodied and structured, it keeps its shape through fresh acidity, firm but polished tannins and a long mineral finish. A serious, ageworthy red for roast lamb, game or slow-braised meats.

The fruit comes from fifty-year-old, dry-farmed Cinsault in the Western Bekaa, fermented with native yeasts in concrete and aged in neutral French barrels. Pepper, herbs and tannin remain through the finish.

Red currant and saline notes lengthen the balanced finish, leaving a graceful, quietly structured impression.
Roberto Henriquez 2020 Rivera del Notro Blanco
Floral spice and ripe citrus lead a savoury, lightly textured white with pineapple, cucumber and a faint meaty note.

Maculan 2020 Torcolato Breganze
Deep gold opens with acacia honey, dried apricot, candied fig and orange peel. Saffron, toasted almond and a touch of salty toffee add depth.
