Mixed Wine Selection (12 bottles)

Chateau Bois-Brincon, Cremant de Loire Brut Nature - This crémant is a blend of Chenin Blanc and Cabernet Franc. Upon arrival, grapes are pressed slowly and gently in a pneumatic press. The first fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. Second fermentation occurs in bottle and is kickstarted with grape must, after which the wine is finished with no added dosage. This is a raw and vinous crémant with elegant bubbles and good aging potential. Zippy, juicy, bright and fresh!

Dominio de Tharsys Cava Brut Nature - Made in the Champagne method in a typically dry style (0.8g/l residual sugar), this Cava from near Valencia is clean, crisp and refreshing. Citrus and floral aromas on the nose and a lovely creamy finish. A perfect accompaniment to tapas.

Ciello, Baglio Catarratto - Delicious Catarratto from beautiful Sicily. Certified organic grapes and winery, minimal intervention throughout. Limited fining agents are used, if any, and only a basic filter is applied to the wine before bottling. As a result some bottles show a small amount of very fine lees sediment in the bottom of the bottle, but with this comes the benefit of greater flavour, texture and mouthfeel to the wine, rather than being stripped bare as you will find with more commercially made white wines.

Pierre-Marie & Marie Luneau, Muscadet Sevre et Maine sur lie 'Garance' - a benchmark organic Muscadet from one of the top Loire producers.  Dry, crisp and mineral with generous fruit and weight from the lees contact.  Excellent with oysters or shellfish or just by itself!

Chateau Mourgues du Gres, Les Galets Blanc - Predominantly Grenache Blanc with a little Vermentino and Roussanne, this graceful white wine combines fruitiness and freshness.  Notes of citrus fruits are mingled with the aromas of white flowers and a touch of minerality.

Coté Mas Syrah Grenache - A true expression of the Coté Mas, this bottle boasts complexity, with plum and raspberry notes that evolve towards soft spice aromas. The palate is fruity, rich and round. This bottle is smooth and well-balanced, finishing on liquorice notes. It's said that the Coté Mas is an invitation to experience a Rural Luxury, the Domaines Paul Mas lifestyle signature.

Weingut Judith Beck, Ink - Juicy, fresh, biodynamic, Austrian red wine. Ink is a very lively, fresh biodynamic wine from Burgenland in Austria. The Judith Beck winery is based near lake (i can never pronounce it) Neusiedlersee. This is the warmest region of Austria for wine production. They can get some quite big red wines here and many producers beef them up further with new, toasted oak and go for richness and power. Judith Beck Ink is not like that at all! It is a biodynamic beauty with a blast of dark fruits, spices and fresh, springy juiciness that leaps from the glass on the nose and hits the palate like a mouthful of summer berries. There are no oaky flavours in Ink although some time in large barrels is spent in the maturation.

Meu Mencia, Vina Costeira - A light, Galician red perfect for accompanying a wide variety of foods including the region's popular dish of octopus.  Cherry red with a purple hue with violet iridescence.  Aromas of red berries and delicate spices.  Mineral stoney background with expression of the mountainous terroir. On the palate it is light, silky, well structured and balanced.

Masseria Borgo dei Trulli, Primitivo - This rich Italian red is a bit like walking into your most-loved cafe. Not a greasey spoon, nor a super trendy one - nothing wrong with them but that FAVOURITE place! Aromas of exotic spices, vanilla, coconut and dried fruits. (They serve a healthy breakfast here!). Followed by rich blackcurrant, chocolate cake and exotic spice flavours. With, of course, fresh coffee on the finish!

Gran Cerdo Tempranillo - In the Gran Cerdo Tempranillo Gonzalo Grijalba has prodcued a wine that shows, in the nose and flavours, an intoxicating combination of red and dark berries, faint lavender (or violets) and a slightly earthy edge. The herbacious flavours gives the wine a slight green finish with a little spice, while the tannin and acidity cry out for some red meat.

Niepoort, Tawny DEE Port / Half Bottle - To produce a Port Wine with a fine and balanced flavour, Niepoort Tawny ages in oak casks for 3.5 years. Freshness, lightness and balance are the key elements of this wine. A Port easy to drink on any occasion. It contains no sediment and does not neet to be decanted. Tawny has a shiny bright colour and soft and sweet tannins. Great with chocolate desserts, cheese like Cheddar, Gouda and Brie, and red meat dishes.

Please note: if a wine in this mixed case moves vintage and we temporarily go out of stock, this will be replaced with a similar wine of same or higher value.
