95 Points - Robert Parker. The Catena Zapata Malbec Argentino 2020 is one of the jewels in Argentina’s wine crown. It’s produced from vines that are up to 90 years old from the Catena Zapata Family Vineyards, Nicasia and Angélica vineyards, which lie at between 920m and 1095 metres above sea level. With their mix of gravel, loam and clay, these sites provide a wonderfully vivid and varied palate from which the winemakers can work. Such is the diversity that several weeks can pass between harvest

The stunning 2022 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. This exceptional Petit Chabli

Bronze Medal - Decanter World Wine Awards. Vincent Mercier bought Château Tertre de Samonac in 2005, and is a self made Château owner. He has been making organic wine since the early 2000's, and this lovely 100% Merlot from 25-30 year old vines has a deep concentration of fruit and a great balancing acidity and tannins. A robust, yet balanced wine on the palate with good acidity, great tannins which will soften as the wine breathes. A wine with wonderful character and elegance. Vivino Rating: 4

It is no wonder that this is the former domaine of the Lacoste family who owned Petrus. A blend of 75% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Franc, Château Lys de Maisonneuve begins with aromas of red fruits and exotic spices which are joined together with tobacco and herbs. Full-bodied with notable fruit tannin structure and a core of bright black cherries that lead up to the long juicy finish. Appealing now, and should continue to develop in bottle over many years.

Grown on the family’s vineyards at Rowland Flat and Lyndoch in the southern Barossa Valley on single wire trellises, the grapes ripened to perfection, harmoniously balancing fruit, tannin, and acidity. Following a careful fermentation with regular pumping over to maximise extraction, it was matured in Ame

Gavi is one of the most fashionable white regions in Italy and the Cortese grape is king. Bergaglio's Gavi di Gavi La Minaia from the sub-zone of Rovereto is 100% stainless steel fermented and left to rest in the bottle before being released. White peach and acacia aromatics, with soft honeyed richness, a cool mineral streak, beautifully balanced and fresh through to the long finish. The palate is crisp and dry, with a hint of ripe pears and a complex array of red and green apples, the finish is

The Le Pergolette is made exclusively from the local speciality, Garganega. Tenute Ca ’Botta go to great lengths to extract as much flavour as they can so give the grapes an extra-long maceration and a long, slow fermentation. The result is a wine that has all of Garganega’s freshness and vitality but with greater body, richness and intensity. This is a fine example of what this excellent variety can do in the right hands. Vivino Score: 4.2 (Sept 2024) Taste Golden in colour, it exudes aromas of

91 Points - Greg Sherwood MW. From a small plot planted in 1986 at 230 meters above sea level, the different soil types contribute to the complexity and many facets of this wine. The Moordernaarskloof (Murderers Gorge) Chenin Blanc has delicate scents of wild flowers and fruit, especially Cape Honeysuckle, white peaches, and pineapples, with an underlying minerality. The palate fully matches the nose with a creamy sensation and a texture that combines elegance and intensity, along with concentra

The great Sauvignon Blancs from Pouilly-Fumé are known (much like their neighbours in Sancerre, Menetou-Salon and Quincy) for their complex minerality and the richness of facets that their respective micro-terroir brings with them. But while the wine prices on the Loire are skyrocketing in many places, this first-class Pouilly-Fumé from the young Domaine de la Croisée stands out as one to follow. Tasting Note The bouquet offers scents of white fruits, chamomile, and freshly mowed grass. Creamy o

In the heart of the minuscule 1000 hectare Fronsac appellation, tucked in between Châteaux Dalem, Haut Carles and Beausejour, lies this hidden jewel on the banks of the ambling Dordogne river. The microclimate here, created by the rolling hills of clay and chalk situated by the mineral rich river have an effect on the Merlot grapes which gives them stunning acidity. Plump, soft plummy black fruit flavours, medium to full bodied and a gorgeous satisfying mouthful. A must try great quality and val

92 Points - Wine Enthusiast. Another star of our great value Bordeaux wine list, the Chateau les Vimieres 2021 was awarded 92 points by Wine Enthusiast. The tiny (0.45-hectare) estate is home to seventy-year-old vines that produce minuscule quantities of super-concentrated grapes.

Chateau Laroze Labatisse is a relatively modern estate that builds on ancient winemaking roots. The passion project of Gérard Bougès, it started life in 1983 when Gérard decided to develop some family-owned land in Fournas, in the town of Saint Sauveur, just inland from the prized commune of Pauillac. Seeing the land's potential for producing top-flight wines, he began assembling small, high-quality plots and released his first vintage in 1988. Ever the perfectionist, as the vines grew older and
