Lovely dry, smooth, full bodied Red from Spain.
Excellent write-up from Elixir Wines:
Super lunch to celebrate John’s Birthday with David
As well as the ‘Droplets’ we also enjoyed La Reserve de Leoville Barton 2016 recommended by Stephane.
Delicious, refined, spicy and earthy with lots of fruity nose and big Cherry flavour.
Very well structured, a Fleurie worthy of the ‘Queen of Beaujolais’ title.
A New Year’s gift from a Neighbour.

A ‘mini’ Lynch-Bages
Typical left bank Claret blend from one of the best vintages in recent years.
Rich black colour, blackcurrant nose and very dry finish. Delicious.
A welcome gift from John & Susan. Thanks!
A heavyweight from the South of France.
Big, austere dry fruity mouthfeel, definitely for lovers of raw red meats.
From the wholesalers website “Top quality Languedoc winery owned by Château Pichon-Longueville in Bordeaux. With an explosion of red fruits, peppery spices and wild herbs on the nose that follow through to the smooth and full-bodied palate.”
