Delivery timeline: We require one full case of each wine in order to build and fulfill four mixed cases. This process usually takes about 10-15 business days but may vary.
When the evenings start to cool, these luscious reds are just the thing to ease into the new season. This curated mixed case highlights classic regions and grapes with styles that balance freshness, fruit, and depth.
3x bottles x Château Haut Grelot Bordeaux Rouge 2022 - Bordeaux, France. Red | Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot
This classic Bordeaux blend features 50% Merlot and 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, cultivated in the sandy, and clayey soils of Côtes de Bordeaux, and aged for six months in stainless steel vats. The wine is fruity, with lots of red berries and a lovely texture.
3 bottles x Bideona Las Parcelas Tinto Rioja Alavesa 2021 - Rioja, Spain.
Red | Tempranillo
The wine is made from quality, low-yield grapes from small plots of old vines located on hillsides parcelas on limestone soils. Around a quarter of the wine is aged for 6 months in new French oak barrels, giving it complexity and texture.
It has pure, intense primary aromas of black cherry and dark berry with a hint of violet and clove. Medium-bodied, it displays remarkable complexity and concentration. The fruit quality shines through, displaying the character typical of the cooler Rioja Alavesa climate, without being masked by excessive oak aging.
3 bottles x Maçanita Vinhos Douro DOC Tinto 2023 - Douro, Portugal.
Red | Touriga Nacional, Sousão
This is a fresh, balanced rendition of a classic Douro red. Preserving the intrinsic bent toward the richness and power of the Douro, all while showcasing balance, minerality and elegance. Some of the vines tended at an altitude of 200m to 540 m altitude in schist soils, and others at 600m altitude in granitic soils elevation, both in Cima Corgo, Douro. This is a subregion that experiences extreme highs and lows from a temperature standpoint, with some of the greatest day-night temperature delta in Portugal. As such the fruit experiences extended hangtime.
Deep violet. On the nose, redolent of black and blue fruit tinged with violets and wet stone. On the palate, rich but balanced, with fresh acidity coupling the dark blueberry and plum fruit. Finishes long and spicy, with a big dose of flowers and minerals.
3 bottles x Lionel Osmin & Cie Pyrène L'irrésistible Lune Noire 2022 - South-West, France.
Red | Malbec
L'irrésistible Lune Noire is made with 100% Malbec from the Comté Tolossan IGP. It is full and rich, yet extremely easy to drink.
On the nose, Lune Noire has pleasant aromas of red and black fruit, and hints of juniper, nutmeg and cedar wood. Full and sumptuous on the palate, the tannins are silky and the finish is flavourful.
Pair this powerful red with roasted meat or lamb chops.
