Tasting Notes

An amazing selection of European 90 point wines... Contains 2 whites, 10 reds.

Terra Alta Pinot Grigio, Veneto, Italy, 2019
A clean flavourful pinot grigio from the Northern reaches of Italy, waxy and honeyed, medium-bodied with concentration and depth above the mean. Ripe Citrus and orchard fruit mingle with floral tones in a complex expression. Good length too. Fine Value- 90 Points John Szabo

Neleman Tempranillo Monastrell Spain-2019-Organic
This youthful blend of organically grown tempranillo and Monastrell (Mourvedre) shows an impressive aromatic lift, with mashed field berry, cranberry, pepper, rosemary, and a touch of garlic. It is light to medium-bodied, fresh, and almost zesty with all kinds of peppery spice and herbs. Very juicy, easy to drink but not tempted to sweetness. The length is very good to excellent.

Terre del Bruno Chianti DOCG 2020, Tuscany.
A terrific value from Chianti. Combines a ray of pure cherry with coffee, spice, wild herb, and tobacco flavours in a seamless way, while sanguine and iron elements chime in on the finish. Balanced, elegant, with a lingering, complex aftertaste.

Clos Mansio Red Bordeaux 2016
From the highly acclaimed 2016 vintage. A blend of 70% Merlot, 30% Malbec. The tannins are expected to soften with age and the wine's wonderful acidity is likely to be preserved, going on to reveal oaky spicy notes with a tight brilliant finish.

Paradis Coteaux D'Aix en Provence RED-2018
We all know Provence produces exceptional roses. This RED is a terrific wine that savvy readers should snatch up! says Robert Parker
Blending Cabernet Sauvignon with Grenache and Syrah, this dense wine is packed with super-ripe fruits. The dark tannins come with black chocolate from the wood aging as well as dark plum flavors.

Villa Reguela DOC RED - Douro - 2017
This is a very bright, juicy, and fresh Douro red with lifted and complex aromas of currants, pomegranate, fresh greens (mint, rosemary), and wood spice. It is open-knit, spicy, and delicious with fine tannin and excellent length.

Critical Praise

GEMS OF EUROPE- 90+ points MiXeD case

As soon as it reaches the time of year you wake up in the dark and leave work in the dark it can become quite disheartening. At this point it’s easy to start to pine after the week you spent on the Mediterranean coast summers ago.
While we don’t have a time machine… or a plane, we do have the next best thing; an amazing selection of European wines from Bordeaux, Italy, Spain and Sunny Portugal that are sure to take you back to that beach, even if it has just dropped to -2°C outside
