  Pauillac Special Reserve 2016, Magnum, A.C. Pauillac

  £75.00 Buy The 2016 harvest brought together all the key ingredients for a fabulous vintage. DBR Lafite have produced a rich yet precise Pauillac, similar in style to the 1990 vintage. Lafite rarely does exuberance, true to form the aroma needs coaxing from the glass. After a few minutes there's cool blackberry coulis, warm slate, fresh tobacco, cedar, violets and graphite. The palate is compact and concentrated with fine tannins. You can feel the quality, but it is slightly reserved in the mid-palate. Whilst it offers very enjoyable drinking you can't help feel its best days lay ahead. It is very 'Lafite' in style and typical of the vintage. Patience will be rewarded.

  Fonseca Crusted Port, bottled in 2015, Oporto Portugal

  £22.00 £16.95 Buy The port is matured for a short time in barrel and then rested in the bottle for three years prior to release. During this period the sediment, which is always unfiltered, forms a crust in the bottle. Therefore giving you a "vintage character" without a vintage price tag. The complexity and layers of flavours are truly stunning. The rich characters of sweet blueberry and raisin are followed by subtle eucalyptus notes and a marzipan finish. Due to the youthfulness of this Port, decanting will indeed help develop flavours, but it is not vital as a 'crust' has yet to form.

  Aruma & Los Vascos Mixed Case (Six Bottle Case)

  £104.70 £72.95 Buy Aruma 2018 Malbec is all the rage in the UK, and has been for a few years. The grape variety flourishes in Mendoza, and it would be fair to say it produces the best results on the planet.

It’s no surprise then that this fruit-filled, elegant Malbec delivers consistency and quality with every sip.  The nose hints at violets, plum and cocoa and the palate is silky and juicy with layers of ripe black fruit. A great Malbec at a great price. What’s not to love here? Los Vascos Grande Reserve 2017 The colour is an intense ruby, with aromas of black cherry, cassis, vanilla, tobacco & cinnamon.

The tannins are silky and elegant and the wine has impressive length with a pleasant pepper and liquorice not on the finish. This vintage has body, but it’s not full-bodied, somewhere between medium and full if you will. It delivers quality well above its price point and will drink beautifully for at least five years.
