Value Picks
Saint Desirat 2022 Ardeche Syrah
100% Syrah. Sustainably Farmed. Lots of characteristic Northern Rhone black pepper spice and savoury complexity. Sourced from vineyards just outside Saint-Joseph, hence the great price.
It's done in a juicy style, offering sappy spice-laced berry flavours on the palate. The spicy note recurs on the long, smooth finish. An exceptional value that is drinking superbly now.
Bunan Le Vin De B 2024 Blanc
Marsan 2019 Cadillac Cotes De Bordeaux
Wine has been produced at this family-owned estate since the 1700s. The wine is Terra Vitis certified - an impressive achievement for such a value-priced Bordeaux.
It has red cherries and violet aromas that unfurl nicely in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp acidity, fine structure and a gently but insistent grip on the finish. This is a terrific value from a top vintage.
Bodegas Paniza Vinas Viejas 2017 Garnacha
7 Vinas 2024 Cabernet Sauvignon
7 Vinas Tierra Del Huarpe 2024 Malbec
Rich and velvety in the glass, offering a harmonious balance between fruit intensity and refined tannins. Flavors of dark berries persist, complemented by nuances of vanilla and gentle spice. The wine's structure is supported by a medium body and a well-integrated acidity, leading to a prolonged and satisfying finish.
