\"LES<\/p>\n

2020 LES PINS Monbazillac Ch\u00e2teau Tirecul la Gravi\u00e8re<\/strong>
\n\u00a314.50 | \u00a312.95<\/span><\/strong><\/em>
\nReview: <\/strong>‘This is my very favourite Monbazillac of all, and it is one of the finest value sweet wines in France. Organically grown and made precisely in the same method as Sauternes, this is a heavenly combination with the superb Layer cake recipe.’<\/em><\/p>\n

No, ros\u00e9 isn’t the perfect wine for summer \u2013 this is, The Telegraph <\/strong>Victoria Moore, <\/strong>27\/05\/2022:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

2021 VERMENTINO Domaine les Yeuses<\/strong>
\n\u00a39.95 | \u00a38.95<\/span><\/strong><\/em>

\nTIO PEPE FINO 2022 RELEASE En Rama Gonzalez Byass<\/strong>
\n\u00a316.50 | \u00a315.50<\/span><\/strong><\/em>
\nReview: <\/strong>‘I\u2019m a sucker for lighter styles of sherry in summer, they\u2019re unapologetically savoury, saline and refreshing, like a gust of sea breeze to the palate. Tio Pepe is where it\u2019s at for the Fino style, and this limited release takes it to a new level of complexity via zero filtration, aka \u2018en rama\u2019 meaning \u2018raw\u2019. It\u2019s the nearest thing to drinking directly from the cask, delivering a thwack of toasted almond and focaccia dough flavours.’<\/em><\/p>\n

\n\u00a319.95 | \u00a317.95<\/span><\/strong><\/em>
\nReview: <\/strong>‘Reflecting light and heat to aid ripeness, and with good natural drainage forcing vines to dig deep for water, the gravel-rich terroir of Bordeaux\u2019s Graves region excels in full-flavoured, naturally balanced reds and, in this case, gloriously expressive, grapefruit-citrussy, sauvignon blanc-based whites.’<\/em><\/p>\n

2020 BOURGOGNE ROUGE ‘Escargot’ Damien Martin<\/strong>
\n\u00a315.95 | \u00a314.50<\/span><\/strong><\/em>
\nReview: <\/strong>‘If you\u2019re after Pinot Noir, Damien Martin Escargot Bourgogne Rouge 2020, is beautiful: perfumed and sleek, refreshing and very moreish indeed. The vintage is in flux, but I\u2019ve tasted both and both are recommended. Try it with mushroom pasta or pink duck breast served with braised peas.’<\/em><\/p>\n
