A full-bodied blend of Syrah, Grenache and Carignan, this fantastic French red pours a dark garnet-red in colour. It has an intense and complex nose - lots of black fruits and spice, which are replicated on the palate. It has spent a year in oak. A deliciously long finish to boot. A unique red indeed.

Famille Perrin is the owner and producer of the world-famous Chateauneuf du Pape Chateau de Beaucastel. This is one of their everyday reds from the vineyards of Ventoux in the south of the Rhone valley. The wine is soft and plush with delicious, bright, red and black fruits tinged with hints of spicy clove and black pepper. This is the sort of wine that made the Rhone popular for its great everyday reds. The nose is enticing with notes of red fruit and morello cherries. The palate has refreshing acidity and is well-balanced with juicy fruit flavors and soft, plush tannins.

L‘Expressió del Priorat is made by the team at Mas La Mola. Their aim was to produce a wine that offers the structure of classic Priorat while being ready to drink young. Most of the fruit comes from younger vines in Mas La Mola’s vineyards, which are supplemented by the two other vineyards that they manage. Farmed organically, the vines are planted on the region’s distinctive llicorella slate soils and have an average age of 20 years old. A blend of 45% Garnatxa, 45% Cariñena and 10% Syrah. Winemaker Jordi Masdeu wants to preserve the freshness of the wine, so the blend is left in stainless steel for eight months before bottling. The wine is a true expression of Priorat, powerful and seductive with blueberry and classic flinty mineral notes. It is elegant, with good concentration and a lovely freshness, a combination that makes L‘Expressió a very approachable wine that offers excellent value for money.

The colour is a deep dark red, perhaps darker than usual at Chateau Musar. The nose is a complex intriguing mixture of figs, prunes, leather, dark tea, tobacco, black olives and spices with a certain earthiness. On the palate you will find ripe black cherries, figs, damsons - even chocolate and olives. There is good acidity with nice smooth tannins resulting in a wine which is full bodied, rich and velvety with a very long finish.
