\nReview: <\/strong>‘If you think Muscadet is bland or one dimensional, try this! Whith considerable time on lees and in bottle, it has great intensity and drive, with tangy lemon, fresh herbs and slatey minerals. Crisp acidity keeps it focused through the long finish.’<\/em><\/p>\n

\nReview: <\/strong>‘A single-vineyard wine from Ba\u00f1os de Ebro in the northerly Rioja Alavesa district, this is a superbly expressive blend of mostly tempranillo with graciano and a touch of the white viura. Sixteen months in French oak provides shade to the mineral-edged bright black fruit.’<\/em><\/p>\n

\n\u00a311.95 | \u00a310.50<\/span><\/strong><\/em>
\nReview: <\/strong>‘The L&S buyers source their bargain of an own-label Bordeaux from a small estate new Gensac in Entre-deux-Mers. It’s soft and supple, with just the right amount of gentle oak char to support its fruit flavours – juicy blue plums and black berries. There’s a fresh, herbal note running alongside the bright acidity and tannic bite, and a leathery hint of maturity creeping in on the finish.’<\/em><\/p>\n
