  Avondale Anima 2017, Paarl South Africa

  £25.00 Buy This is without doubt one of our favourites wines, and an absolute bargain consider the quality. After some time in the decanter, and served cool not cold, Anima 17' boasts a beautifully enticing and complex nose of buttered pear, hazelnut, cashew, yogurt, citrus peel, chalk and steely minerality. Those wonderful aromatics pass from the nose to the palate effortlessly. The presence, weight and texture of this vintage is quite remarkable. There's the classic minerality and acidity you expect from a Chenin, but there's much more flesh and cream than you'd expect. A touch of salinity and nimble acidity balances the rich fruit quite perfectly. As for the finish, it doesn't let itself down here either. Layers of macadamia and stone fruit kick on towards the one minute mark. Take a bow Avondale. This is great stuff.

  Avondale Samsara 2011, Paarl South Africa

  £30.00 Buy This is quite simply brilliant wine. It punches well above its weight - in fact we've tasted wines three times the price that really don't compare. Let's start with the colour, its a shimmering opaque ruby that hugs the glass beautifully. On the nose there's soft wood, white pepper, violets, cured meat, vibrant red berries, orange peel, sweet smoke and layers of broody black fruit. Samsara is full, yet well-integrated with hints of plum and cherry, cloves, cinnamon and pepper. This wine is spectacularly well-balanced and carries an exceptional fruit-driven palate. The whole bunch fermentation results in great tannins and good acid which gives the wine an unbelievable length. Hats off to the team at Avondale. This is truly epic.

  Apaltagua Reserva Riesling 2018, Casablanca Valley, Chile (six bottle case)

  £90.00 £59.70 Buy As you except from Riesling, this wine delivers an aromatic explosion. There's zesty citrus fruit, lime peel, apricot and honeysuckle. It's a sadly fashionable stance to disregard Riesling, often due to fears of abundant levels of residual sugar. If you share those concerns don't worry. This is dry, with just a few grams of sugar per litre. The palate possesses razor like acidity that cleans up beautifully. The balance of fruit, acid and texture is quite remarkable given it's price point. Great stuff. It works wonders with pork belly and apple sauce.

  £90.00 £59.70 Buy This is classic Chilean Carmenère deriving from a 60 year old vineyard in Apalta. These gnarly old vines have deep roots and produce fruit with wonderful intensity and depth. On the nose this wine exudes layers of tobacco soaked fruit, toasted pepper, blackberry, dried mint and cumin. The palate seems to straddle the border of medium and full bodied. A savoury spicy exterior smothers a core of juicy ripe black fruit. This is ready to go, and after 20 minutes in a decanter drinks really well.
