Chateau Hauterive le Haut, Corbieres 2010
€14.9550% carignan, with syrah, grenache and mourvèdre in the mix; displaying a core of intense, concentrated fruit so typical of good Corbières, offset by subtle oaking. This is such an outstanding rustic French red, it never fails to please us, a simple wine to partner with simply cooked food or indeed cheese.

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 -
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 Alary Cairanne 'la Brunote' Cote du Rhone Villages 2009
€20.95Out of stock
The outstanding 2009 Cotes du Rhone-Villages Cairanne La Brunote (60% Grenache, 30% Mourvedre and 10% Carignan from white clay soils) was aged 12 months in larger wood demi-muids before being bottled unfiltered. Revealing slightly more concentrated blue, red and black fruits, lavender, incense and white chocolate notes, it offers an opaque ruby/purple color along with full body and a long finish. There is not a hard edge to be found in this voluminous, multilayered red. It should drink nicely for 5-7 years. 91 Wine Advocate Learn More -
Domaine Chaume-Arnaud Vinsobres 2010
€20.95This is a blend of 60% Grenache, 15% Syrah, 15% Mourvedre, 5% Carignan, and 5% Cinsault. The fruit was hand-harvested, destemmed, fermented with indigenous yeasts, and aged in concrete tanks. This wine is a medium opaque, grapey-purple color. Over two nights the nose remained subtle with dark aromas. In the mouth there are plenty of blue-black fruits that are ripe and muscular from the get-go. The spices mix with ripe tannins which dry the cheeks before taking on a fine quality in the aftertaste. Though muscular there is a harmonious balance to the fruit, acidity, and tannins. Tasty now but should develop over the short-term Learn More -
