Cabernet, Showdown, Man with the Ax

Cabernet Sauvignon

£50.70- 6 bottles, just the one wine,                     10% off single bottle price

One of the most popular Wines of the Week, so maybe a good thought to offer it up like this? If you need any reminding, it is fine stuff - pure, well ripened and carefully blended Cabernet grapes aged for six months in American oak, resulting in a very persuasive ad for Californian reds, not a monster (only 13.5%) but rich and flavour-layered. 

The Listening Station

£43.50 - 6 bottles, 2 of each

Chardonnay

Malbec

Shiraz

From Victoria, inspired by the Australian night sky, these are all three forward, very pleased to meet you types, heart on their sleeve, but with a fruity depth that is hard to resist.

Lesser Spotted Spaniards

£99 - 12 bottles, 3 each of these four:      

Rosado, Bodegas Borsao

Verdejo Diez Siglos, Rueda

Garnacha Seleccion, Bodegas                Borsao

Monastrell Albacea, Jumilla 

Lesser known and strange-sounding names often means lower prices and higher value, as is the case here: each of these wines delivers and impresses.

Piemonte Please

£143 - 12 bottles, 3 each of these four:       

Sauvignon Blanc, Camillona

Gavi, La Battistina

Barbera d'Asti, Ceppi Storici

Barolo, Flori, Araldica

The Piemonte region of North West Italy is home to some of the world's finest wine producers, famous for many types of bold robust reds as well as unctuous elegant whites. Without pushing the purse too far, we hope, here is a selection that should give an idea what the fuss is about.

The BBQ 6

£47.50- 3 red 2 rosé 1 white:                            

Shiraz, Seriti, Cape, South Africa

Merlot, Peculiar Mr.Pat, Australia

Garnacha, Borsao, Spain

Rosé La Grande Plage, Languedoc

Rosé de Grenache, Languedoc

Verdejo, Diez Siglos, Rueda, Spain

Just because BBQ flavours tend to be strong doesn't mean the wine should lack character, and these certainly don't.. Robust enough to manage the charred solids and yet add to the gustatory experience through developed and succulent flavours, these bottles should be welcomed at any ritual burning.

Pasquiers, Languedoc, France, 2019

Sauvignon Vermentino

Grenache Noir

Shiraz

The Languedoc region in southern France is a major wine producer that stretches from Provence to the Pyrenees mountains and the Spanish border. It's a beautiful and eclectic region and these extremely good value quaffs are fine examples of its produce.

Time-honoured & Special

£122 - 6 bottles, 2 of each

Chateauneuf du Pape, Domaine Chante Cigale 2018, Rhone, France

Grand Cru St Emilion, Clos de la Cure 2015, Bordeaux, France

Rioja Reserva, Bodegas Ontanon 2010, Rioja, Spain

Some wines have a perennial following and deserve it too. We are very fond of these three. Vintage after vintage, they have inspired and delighted. Each tastes very much as it should, but with elegant restraint - no power-packing, no showing off, just class. See the individual items for details.

Tierra Alta, Chile

£43.50 - 6 bottles, 2 of each, down                    from £45.24

Pinot Noir

Merlot

Cabernet Sauvignon

£66.50- 6 bottle case, all red, all taste

Grenache Syrah, 'Cabriola', Bodegas Borsao, Spain

Cabernet Franc, Domaine Mas Barrau, Gard, France

Malbec, Les Volets, Limoux, France

Tinta del Pais (Tempranillo), Pinna Fidelis, Roble, Ribero del Duero, Spain

Gamay, Brouilly, Le Cru de Volcan, Beaujolais, France

Why not some unctuous reds to sit by the fire with? All very different, certainly, but all big, bold and fine examples. With three French, two Spanish and an Australian why not impress some friends?

Proper Prosecco

£55.00 -  for 3 white & 3 Pink

Lunetta Prosecco Brut Spumante

Lunetta Prosecco Rosé Brut Spumante

From Cavit, based in Trentino, the mountainous North-East of Italy, and one of Europe's foremost cooperatives over many years, here are two far from cynical, good quality fizzes, delicate, vibrant, fresh and worthy of celebration.

Chilean Duet

£41.30 - 6 bottles, 3 of each   reduced from £43.50                          

Merlot, Mucho Mas

Sauvignon Blanc, Mucho Mas

The name means "much more" and I hope you'll agree that while good to guzzle, both these offerings have bags of mouthfilling character, much more than their price.

Classic House Wines

£80.30- 12 bottles, 3 each of these four:              

Cotes de Gascogne, Sentier dans les Vignes, France

Grenache Syrah, Sentier dans les Vignes, France
