• I threw myself into wine as a teenager, planting vines which went on to be owned by a famous Australian winery.
• Now, many years later I’ve been fortunate enough to make this delicious wine from the same old vineyard which I know and love so well.
• Robust, generous and full of flavour, it’s the perfect match for any roast joint or sitting back and relaxing by the firepit with friends!

Juicy, Winemaker

• The Syrah grapes Ben uses for this wine come from the organic vineyards of Chateau Maris vineyard. It sits on the land of La Livinière, the premier wine-making village of AOC Minervois-La Livinière
• The vines were first planted by the Romans who were nurturing the grapes and making wines here 2,000 years ago. Inspired by the history of the vineyard, Ben has pulled out all the stops to produce this wine with as little intervention as possible - using no sulphur or yeast, just the pure product of top-quality fruit.
• With subtle red fruit, pure aromas on the nose, velvety tannins in the mouth and an elegant long finish, this juicy yet effortlessly light wine is delightfully easy drinking!

• If we were picking one white wine to keep behind glass and crack open for dinner in a pinch… this would be it. A first-class German Riesling with the intensity and flavour to stand up to everything from creamy soups and salads, right the way through to a full-on pork roast.

• To make it, Urban & Eva Kaufmann picked their very best grapes from carefully chosen sites in the Rheingau, which they knew would be bathed in sunlight all day long and provide pristine fruit with next-level oomph.

• What they’ve created is a refined wine, with a spicy yet soft, almost silky, texture and classic, refreshing Riesling acidity. On the nose, you get zesty aromas of lemon and lime, with a delicate floral hint, which follows through on the palate with heaps of intensity and a mouthwatering finish. Yum, who's for seconds?

• Antoine is all about region and letting his grapes do the talking. He really couldn't have chosen a better region than Pouilly Fume to do just that. As Sauvignon Blanc goes it's pretty tricky to find anything as well rounded, yet as citrusy crisp as a Pouilly Fume - Antoine's vineyards have proved no exception to this very premium rule.
• You can add this to your list of 'good things in small packages' as Antoine's been sure to pick only the best grapes to make sure each bottle is of towering quality, even if that does mean cutting down on quantity. You don't see something like this everyday, that's for sure.
• This is a wine that radiates some serious class with flavours of pear, zippy goosberry, and an incredibly delicate smokeyness on the round up.

• This classy Spanish blend of Grenache, Syrah, and Cab Sav is a celebration of Jose’s small village of Mentrida, where the locals have been making wines since Ancient times.

• Mentrida generally flies under-the-radar compared to Spain’s more well-known wine regions. But its well-drained sandy soils - a rarity in Spain - provide deep mineral deposits to nourish the old vines planted there. The pristine fruit they produce is perfect for creating elegant and complex reds with more finesse than your typical Spanish powerhouse.

• Pour yourself a glass and take a sniff, and you’ll just get lost in the aromas, they’re bright and intense, with fresh strawberries and raspberries to the fore, followed by subtle hints of spicy nutmeg and peppercorn, herbs and orange peel. Then on the palate you get a little more dark fruit with yummy brambles and cherries, and well-balanced fine tannins to round it out.

• Olivier is one of those young pioneers that we more often associate with the young, forward thinking winemakers that we work with in the Languedoc than Bordeaux.  In deciding to adopt a completely holistic approach to wine making and farming he embraced organic principles from the outset, moving to biodynamics in 2016.

• The vineyards of Chateau de Bel are located on a gentle sloping plateaux on the edge of the Dordogne river, where the soils are composed of well drained sandy clay overlying beds of gravel.  Vineyards have been planted here since at least the 17th century and the reputation of the site for good wines has long been acknowledged.    

• This is not your typical wine coming from Bordeaux. 100% Cabernet Franc grape, non vintage because it’s a blend of 7 different vintages which is quite unusual in Bordeaux !

• You've been funding Ben to make delicious, downright drinkable reds from the get go. This time, we asked him to take it up a notch and show us what he could do, on the best Southern French soils around. The result is this sensational, showstopper Syrah.
• Full to the brim with plump, ripe blackberries, melt-in-your-mouth dark chocolate and a seductively spiced licquorice kick that'll tingle and tease your tastebuds with every mouthful. Rich, rounded, and utterly voluptuous.
• If you're a patient sort, you can lay this down for up to 10 years. If you're like us... you'll be snapping up a bottle - quick sharp - and cracking it open with some sizzling pan seared duck (and anyone else you love enough to share it with).

• Mr Darnault can do no wrong - and now, he's taking your wine to a whole new level. His latest Languedoc blending masterclass is vegan, organic AND bio-dynamic... making this ruby red gem just as Heavenly as the Angels that made it possible.
• WOW... what can we say? While the beautifully concentrated, vibrant red fruit flavour of Carignan dances on your tastebuds, your mouth will be wrapped in plush, velveteen tannins. Add smoky, sultry Syrah to the mix and you've got a finish to savour with every sip.
• Ben works super hard to find the fruit for this wine. And based on the previous vintages, it won't last! Try it while you can with some herby, French-style sausages and mustard. Divine.

• Specially made using the very best fruit from the Kaufmann’s top vineyard site, this super elegant white is the absolute cream of the crop when it comes to Rheingau Riesling.

• One sip and you just know this is premium stuff. It’s got fresh, vibrant fruit laced all the way through, and these sensational smoky, spicy, and floral characters that dance on the tip of your tongue. It’s stunning complexity. And texture-wise it feels silky and elegant, almost creamy, with a rich minerality and an exquisite finish.

• This is a truly unique, great Riesling and definitely one to be savoured. Whether it’s over a few glasses with that special someone, or just a yummy Thai curry on your tod. There’s no rule book when it comes to a wine like this, so let your imagination run wild and enjoy.

• For 20-odd years, Jen Buck (and husband Dider) have crafted top-quality wines in the tiny French village of Douzens. Then Covid hit, their buyers pulled out, and everything was up in the air. Thankfully we were able to save Jen’s business and bring her incredible wines, like this elegant and complex Nebulo Blanc, to the UK for the very first time.
• Made using a blend of fully-organic Roussane and Grenache Gris, its fresh and fruity aromas of citrus, peach and pineapple draw you in for the first sip which transforms in the mouth into a wonderfully creamy apple pie of a wine, laced with honey and the subtlest hint of vanilla.
• To really enjoy this at its most delicious, pop to your local fishmonger for some salty and succulent oysters or a great big, flaky white fillet of cod. Then pour a refreshing glass and transport yourself to sunny seaside tranquility.
