1 x Château Les Fermenteaux 2018 (France)

AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: Gilbert & Gaillard – Les Experts du Vin

AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: China Wine & Spirits Awards 2019

AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: Japan Women’s Wine Awards

Classic Bordeaux blend of 70 % Merlot, 20 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 5 % Cabernet Franc and 5 % Malbec. Deep purplish red in colour. A generous fruit-driven nose evoking redcurrant blackberry and cherry. Good body on the palate enveloped by supple tannins leading to balanced aromas of red summer berries. The finish is frank, underpinned by subtle spicy, woody notes.

1 x Belles Vignes Collection GSM 2016 (France)

AWARDED 91/100 POINTS & 4.5 STARS: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Mar 2018

"The wine offers perfumed aromas of Black Doris plum, blueberry compote, vanilla, hazelnut and floral on the nose, leading to a wonderfully fruited and rounded palate that is juicy and mouth-filling. A lovely modern style offering excellent drinking. At its best: now to 2020" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Mar 2018

A classic Southern French blend of Grenache, Syrah and the little known Marselan. Generously flavoured and sturdy, this is filled with dark fruit, game and spice characters, beautifully enhanced by fruit richness and smooth mouthfeel. The wine is well structured by pleasingly dry tannins, making it a wonderful partner to winter slow-cooked dishes.

1 x Les Vignerons Carignan Syrah 2016 (France)

AWARDED 90/100 POINTS & 4.5 STARS: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Mar 2018

"This is a youthful charmer offering terrific fruit richness; lifted aromas of blackberry, cranberry, hazelnut, cocoa and subtle spice lead to a succulent palate that is plump and supple. The wine is filled with pristine fruit flavours, backed by savoury nuances, finishing long and delicately dry. At its best: now to 2020" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Mar 2018

This is ripe, fragrant and richly flavoured, showing dark plum, blueberry, almond and subtle spice notes on the nose. The palate is juicy and generous with excellent fruit purity as well as subtle savoury complexity, beautifully supported by fleshy mouthfeel and fine tannins. This is highly enjoyable, especially at this awesome price. At its best: now to 2018.

1 x Villa Blanche Syrah 2019 (France)

AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: Mundus Vini

COMMENDED: Decanter Magazine 2019

A wine of reddish-purple colour with exquisite violet reflections. The nose opens with seductively powerful aromas of ripe black fruit, then come cocoa and mocha, with fig, prune and blackberry joining in the dance, mingling joyfully with vanilla and toasted notes. In the mouth, the smoothness of texture and the silkiness of the tannins are astonishing. The aromas echo the same black fruit enhanced with truffle-like notes of forest floor, leading to an opulent but superbly fresh finish. A wine gorged with sunshine that indulges the senses whilst maintaining a perfect balance that allows it to rise to all occasions.

1 x Château Lussan 2018 (France)

AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: SINGAPOUR COMPETITION 2019

AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: SHANGHAI COMPETITION 2019

AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: CHALLENGE INTERNATIONAL DU VIN 2019

AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: China Wine & Spirits Awards 2019

AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: FRANKFURT 2019

The Château’s history goes back to the Middle Ages, but vines and wine have always been part of the estate. The estate first belonged to the monks of the region’s most important abbeys, before passing into the hands of the d’Esparbès de Lussan family, who were part of the political establishment of the nearby town of Blaye.

This soft and fruity wine may be young, but with its bright red fruits, it's ready to drink. Its juicy red berry flavors are filled with spice and a minty character from wood aging. It finishes with ripe fruitiness.

1 x Calmel & Joseph Côtes Du Roussillon-Villages 2016 (France)

Awarded Negociants of the Year 2018: La Revue du Vin de France

Awarded 93/100 Points & 5 Stars: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Feb 2018

"A gorgeous juicy fruit attack on the nose, showing lifted aromas of blackcurrant and cranberry with subtle roasted nut, olive and dark spice notes. The palate is concentrated and expansive with excellent depth and richness, superbly framed by firm tannins. Sturdy and bold. At its best: now to 2022" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Feb 2018
