Ernesto del Palacio has been making wine for over 300 years in the region of Toro, most famously known for its powerful reds made from Tinta de Toro, a variant of the internationally known Tempranillo. This Tinto Roble is born after a careful selection of grapes from vineyards over 50 years old with low yields. With an intense cherry colour and beautiful purple reflections, it will surprise you with its sweet notes thanks to the maturity of carefully selected clusters. Taste It has an intense ch

Icario Nysa Bianco 2024 offers outstanding intensity on the nose and palate, showing ripe florals and yellow fruit with depth and persistence.

Bordeaux's Fronsac wines are famed for their power and intensity, and the Chateau Tour du Moulin 'Les Terres Rouges' 2022 delivers this beautifully. Very deeply coloured, with a nose of plums, black cherries, purple flowers and star anise, in the mouth it's full, youthful, well-fruited and satisfying. While it will develop in bottle over the coming years, it's such a joy now with dishes such as sausages, lasagne, pizza or a Sunday roast, it's hard to resist it. Vivino Rating: 4.1 (Apr 2025) Tast

Lebeau-Batiste Brut Tradition is a beautifully crafted grower Champagne, aged on its lees for over two and a half years to build complexity and depth. The blend also includes 20% reserve wines from previous standout vintages – a hallmark of quality that adds richness rarely found in non-vintage Champagne. Taste Pale gold in the glass with fine, pearlescent bubbles, this wine opens with inviting aromas of white berries, citrus peel and warm almond croissants. The palate is rounded and generous, l

91 Points - Wine Spectator.Dave Phinney doesn’t make wines that whisper — even his Sauvignon Blanc has something to say. Blank Stare takes a grape known for its precision and dresses it in Californian attitude. A portion fermented in oak adds depth and texture, while fruit from Sonoma and the Russian River Valley keeps things bright and racy. It’s Sauvignon with swagger — bold, aromatic and just the right side of indulgent. Vivino Rating 4.0 (Sept 2025) Wine Press Ratings 91 Points - Wine Specta

The stunning 2023 vintage benefited all the wines of Chablis, but more so to the vineyards of Sylvain Mosnier who took full advantage of the opportunity to produce this crisp Petit Chablis which is drinking beautifully now. Balanced aromas of citrus and wet stones are followed by a fruity, tangy palate, with a subtle tang of salinity and apple skin freshness towards the finish. Perfect on its own or to enjoy with white fish or meats.  Wine Press Ratings 90 Points - Gilbert et Gaillard | Double G

Fitz Sparkling Wine is an innovative English sparkling wine that emphasises fruit and is easy to enjoy. It is produced in Sussex using the Charmat method, which the finest producers of Prosecco favour. Fitz is light, fruity, and juicy, with mouthwatering tones of white peach, honeysuckle, apple with melon, pear and a touch of gingery spice to the crisp finish.

92 Points - Tm Atkin MW. Crafted from meticulously hand-harvested Malvasía grapes, Casa La Rad Viñedos Singulares Edición Especial is a stunning showcase of Rioja’s white winemaking heritage.

94 Points - The Wine Independent. Dave Phinney doesn’t really do subtlety — and Mannequin is a classic example of that unashamed Californian swagger. This is Chardonnay dialled up to eleven: bold, textured and unapologetically hedonistic. Sourced from some of Napa and Sonoma’s best sites, it’s a wine that manages to marry power and polish without ever tipping into excess. Think of it as California sunshine in liquid form — but with the complexity and balance that Phinney’s meticulous blending al

The Crudabendita Gran Reserva is one of Ribera del Duero’s increasingly rare finds — a wine of serious structure and provenance that still offers exceptional value. With prices in the region climbing steadily, driven by both rising demand and standout vintages like 2018, this is a welcome reminder that quality and accessibility can still go hand in hand. Taste Aged for 38 months in French and American oak, followed by two years in bottle, this is a deeply structured, classically styled Ribera

Situated in an enviable small enclave among the classified growths of Saint-Julien, 5 hectares of vines are surrounded by the grand crus classés of Leoville Barton, Gruaud Larose, Beychevelle and Talbot.

93 Points - Cameron Douglas MS. A wonderful Burgundian style Pinot Noir from a producer who carefully select fruit from Marlborough's top organic single vineyards to produce wines of great elegance and complexity. An aromatic, savoury nose with notes of damson plum, dark berry, forest floor, nori, peppercorns, salami and salted, black liquorice.

97 Points - Guia Penin. Pago de Carraovejas Cuesta de Las Liebres 2018 is one of the greatest wines of the Ribera del Duero. The 2018 scored 94 from Robert Parker, cementing its reputation as a wine to be compared with the likes of Vega Sicilia and Pingus. Made exclusively from Tinto Fino, the local name for Tempranillo, from a single high-altitude (850m above sea level) vineyard in only great years, since its release in 1991 it has become one of the most sought-after wines in all of Spain.

'Vol de Nuit' is a pure expression of the Carignan grape variety from a selection of 3 very old parcels of vines dating back to 1900. The result is a wine with a very deep colour and an explosion of fruit, black cherry and spice. Simply wonderful!  About the Producer A story that began when, in 1816, Raymond Amiel won the deeds to this property from the Bishop of Perpignan over a game of cards. Then a mere 10 hectares, the fortunes of the estate have waxed and waned over the ensuing 200 years. W

93 Points - Revista Adega. The Fonseca 20 Year Old Tawny Port is a traditional blend of grapes including Tinta Roriz, Tinta Cao, Touriga Nacional, and Tinta Francesca. Under the expert guidance of David Guimaraens, a sixth-generation winemaker, nothing is left to chance. Grapes are gathered from the best vineyards in the Cima Corgo and Douro Superior regions and are made in the traditional way with fortification with grape spirit halting the fermentation to leave some residual sugar in the wine.

A true classic from the hills of Valpolicella, perfect for slow dinners and special occasions.

The Domaine Camille Lucienne Macon-Villages 2022 was a triumph. The 2022 vintage was splendid and the team overcame the year’s challenges to produce a top-flight affordable white Burgundy. In a year that kept all Burgundy’s vignerons on their toes, Domaine Camille Lucienne had the added complication of having their vines in the process of converting to organic certification. By utilising a combination of traditional, natural methods in the vineyard alongside state-of-the art winemaking technique

98 Points - Raffaele Vecchione. Solengo was the brainchild of the legendary winemaker and father of Super Tuscan wines, Giacomo Tachis. The first vintage was 1995 and is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Merlot, Sangiovese. The wines are aged in French barriques for twelve months and are blended just before the bottling. A long period in bottle follows before the finished Solengo is released. Solengo, by the way, means solitary wild boar in Tuscan, and describes perfectly the regal, p
