Sunday Business Post

"...In many ways ways this ultra crisp, clean nettle and tropical fruit-soaked offering is the true sucessor to Cloudy Bay, as Cloudy Bay itself becomes more refined and restrained. This is old-school New World sauvignon, and almost begs for a cruncy crab starter or lemon sole."
Tomás Clancy - 08 November 2009


Rizzardi Pinot Grigio

From Rizzardi one of Italy's great wine houses (founded in 1435) this single estate, premium Pinot Grigio is a big favourite with the critics. Crisp, clear pear and ripe peachy fruit, yet soft and rounded.

Rasteau Tradition

The tradition always impresses in blind tastings with tasters invariably pricing it much higher than its lowly Ç10.99. A fitting tribute to the stellar quality of the Cave de Rasteau winemakers.

"A blend of Grenache, Syrah and Mourvedre, the Rasteau Ortas Tradition is a big, chunky wine with masses of dark, dense fruit, and robust but approachable tannins. Try it with a steak or a good meaty stew. "

"Deep garnet to purple colour. Invigorating nose of freshly crushed blackberries, eucalyptus, Chinese five spice, liquorice and black pepper. The palate is superbly balanced providing a medium+ level of velvety tannins and medium to high acidity. Very long peppery finish. Drink now to 2015. "

"This wine, from 15 to 20-year-old vines, is rich and inky dark. Bursting with soft blackberry, there are touches of spice, vanilla notes and a chewy, lightly tannic finish. It is flashy and pleasurable and yearns for thick fillet steaks in a black pepper sauce."
Tomás Clancy - 28 February 2010

"Well know Sancerre producer Henri Bourgeois has created this zippy cousin of Sancerre at two-thirds of the price. With all the cool 'green' notes you'd expect - gooseberries, nettles, herbs, summer grass - it's delighfully crisp but not austere."
