Les Jamelles Merlot
€12.95From the south of France (near Béziers), Les Jamelles Merlot is a real treat. Complex, dark brooding colour, with an abundance of blackberries, blackcurrants and cherries flavours complemented with smoky scents with cinnamon and thyme or "garrigue". More Merlot? Yes, please. Learn More -
Les Petits Mains Faugeres 2010
€16.95This cuvée is a hommage to a talented grandmother renowned for the brightly coloured clothes she made... This wine associates the straight, pure line of the Carignan variety with the seductive Syrah, the rich softness of the Grenache, the elegance of the Mourvèdre and the fresh style of the Cinsaut. This Faugères, magnificently rich in fruit, will seduce novices as much as connoisseurs who appreciate complex wines. Learn More -
Domaine des Homs Paul Minervois 2011
€16.95Domaine des Homs did not mature the wines in oak barrels but in stainless steel vats. The resulting red wine bursts with varietal characteristics such as black fruit and peppery spices. My note: Delicious, mouth-watering and full-bodied red with notes of black fruit. Learn More -
Clos Marie Cuvee L'Olivette Pic St. Loup Coteaux de Languedoc 2008
€22.95From a 8-ha plot, this blend of Grenache (60%), Syrah and Cinsault is really impressive and
almost Northern Rhone in style. Firm, tightly-knit redcurrant, cherries with notes of garrigue and herbs, the palate is elegant with blackberry and liquorice-infused fruit and an elegant touch of pepper. Learn More -
Domaine d'Aupilhac Cuvee M Montpeyroux 2004
€25.95Out of stock
A blend made especially for the Irish importer, consisting of 50% Mourvedre & 50 % Syrah, These are wines of immense character, wonderfully complex and deep. They have superb balance and freshness and whilst they are excellent drunk young, they ‘grow’ in bottle for many years. Learn More -
Clos Marie Metairies du Clos Pic Saint Loup 2008
€38.95Organic/Bio dynamic - no added sulphur - This is a real artisans' wine, The Clos Marie of Christophe Peyrus and Francoise Julien is a superstar in the Languedoc firmament, and nothing I am about to write is going to change that, I can only confirm with awe!
