Finca del Mar Chardonnay 2006

100% Chardonnay grape. Aromas of green fruit with the right amount of woody edge. Just right!!

A very correct Chardonnay from a very experienced wine producer. Green fruits and wood in a perfect balance. The kind of wine to enjoy both with food or just for an occasional drink.

Navaldar Crianza 2003

After 14 months maturing in French oak and a further 12 months in the bottle, this Navaldar Crianza is a very attractive Rioja that will not let you down. Judged by any criteria, from colour to aromas, this is a classic Tempranillo Crianza. Quite syrupy and with a back note of dry plums, this is a complex wine and yet, very easy to drink. Comes highly recommended - our best value Rioja Crianza with no compromises!

Senorio de Sarria Crianza 2002

Soft and well balanced, this is a very successful blend of Tempranillo with Cabernet Sauvignon and Grenache - not too fruity and finely spiced. Meaty and fresh with a long aftertaste - this is a good value red that makes for a very pleasant and easygoing casual drink.

Mas Comtal Red 2005

This is a good blend of mostly Cabernet Sauvignon, with a topping of Merlot and Cabernet Franc for softness. It comes from a very fine estate where the land hasn't been chemically treated since 1992. There are aromas of ripe fruit with a slight edge of oak, with a lovely long finish. It's ideal with pasta, cheese or cold cuts, and a great one to enjoy with grilled meats (so pick up some next time you’re thinking of having a barbecue).

Mas d'en Compte Rose 2005

A very special rose from a very special wine maker. Celler Cal Pla has been making wine since 1774, always under the control of the same family and still operating within the original premises. This small winery makes very good wines, all of them in small productions. Mas d'en Compte 2003 is the result of a very clever blend of Grenache with Carignan and Cabernet Sauvignon. Soft in taste but powerful in aromas, this is a grand wine for a special moment. Best with red meats, unbeatable with venison.

Petalos 2007

Descendientes de J. Palacios are one of the oldest wine makers in Spain, but still pioneers in the development of new wines. This is the case with Petalos, which is today one of the flagship wines of Bierzo, quite capable of satisfying the most discerning palate. Made with 100% Mencia, the characteristic grape of the area, this is a wine full of the flavour of bright cherry and cranberry fruit, with liquorice and mineral accents and a very light hint of oak. A beautifully balanced red, not a big wine but an intense one. Highly recommended.
