Country: Spain, Ribera del DueroGrapes: TempranilloABV: 15%Style: Smooth Fruity RedThe youngest wine from the Pago de los Capellanes winery has become a true best-seller, always in high demand. Made 100% with Tempranillo grapes from the Santa Gadea vineyards, a farm with poor clay-calcareous soils characteristic of the riverside terroir.

Country: USA, CaliforniaGrapes: Sauvignon BlancABV: 15%Style: Aromatic Floral White91 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.

Country: USA, CaliforniaGrapes: ChardonnayABV: 15%Style: Classy Complex White94 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 Lou Miranda Estate in the southern Barossa Valley is blessed with a small block of Mataro (France’s Mourvèdre) that was planted in 1898. These ancient, exceptionally low-yielding vines produce a tiny amount of wine – a yield that was reduced even further in the heat of the brilliant 2018 vintage. The little that was made was blended with Shiraz to create one of the best premium Australian red wines.

Country: France, Rhone ValleyGrapes: GrenacheABV: 15%Style: Rich Full RedA traditional blend of Grenache (60%) and Syrah (40%), Chateau de Gourdon Vase de Pierre Cotes du Rhone is unusual in being so elegant and refined. Despite boasting an impressive 15% alcohol, its structure is fine and complex. This is achieved by de-stemming the Syrah, giving both grapes long (30 day), cool fermentations and keeping oak ageing to a minimum. The result is an impressively intense, but beautifully rounded wine. Vivino Rating: 4.1 (Jul 2025) Taste Deep purple, the bouquet is dominatRegular Price£24.95Winter Sale - 25% Off£18.72
