91 Points - Tim Atkin MW. Cruz de Alba is made in small quantities and each bottle is numbered. It is made using the best Tinto Fino (Tempranillo) grapes, cultivated using agrohomeopathic treatments according to the biodynamic calendar and harvested carefully by hand. Silky, full-bodied and intense deep fruit are the results of the careful attention to detail and respect for the land. Simply wonderful.

This is a classic Rioja with a modern touch characterising the Ramón Bilbao style and philosophy. Elegant and complex nose with aromas of ripe fruit, blackberry, plum, hints of cherry. Spicy with aromatic herbs such as rosemary, there is a clear presence of oak barrels and hints of sweet spices, pastries and nougat combined with roasted flavours and cocoa.  About the Producer

90 Points - Cellar Tracker. One of the most amazing Californian Zinfandels you can find in the UK. Big flavours, big body, big abv content, but everything is in harmonious balance. “Juvenile” comes from young vines (6-25 years old), interplanted, from several of their old vine designated vineyards – including Hayne, Ueberroth, Pesenti, Salvador and Vineyard 101. Whilst it offers sumptuous, joyous fruit, it also gives more than a glimpse of Turley’s single vineyard wines. Taste Vivino Rating: 4.2

In the centre of the Côte-Rôtie appellation, in the municipality of Ampuis, stands the locality of “Bonnivières”, a handsome east-facing hillside of mica schist where this Cuvee is grown. A typical Côte Brune wine, Bonnivières is full-bodied, but not excessive, with discreet oak and a superb velvety structure. Complex and profound, with a nose of dark fruits, spice, tobacco, and a faint roasted edge, the Bonnivières 2017 is drinking beautifully now, but could still be laid down for years to come
