Medium-Full Bodied, Dry, Red, Southern Rhône Blend, For laying down, 15% alc.

The year 2007 was a top rhône vintage, as good in the south as it was in the north, which explains why this hefty gigondas, with lots of ripe, tannic, smouldering spice and smoky black fruit, is such an impressive red. Born on the herb-scented hillsides near the Dentelles de Montmirail, this ... MORE

Medium-Full Bodied, Dry, Red, Cab.Sauvignon Blend, Drink now, 13% alc.

Berrys' take on Sir Mark Elder's favourite Bordeaux commune. St-Julien. Made at Château Lagrange, this is seriously grown-up stuff. With spicy blackcurrant fruit and whiffs of tobacco and cedar, it is precise and well-structured. Although it still needs a little bit longer to blossom, it's ... MORE

Driest of the styles, yet one which manages to combine, with effortless whimsy, a certain intellectual formality with a broad luxuriant structure.

Great to see Berry Bros taking the trouble to source a range of growers' champagnes. Lovely development on the nose. Graceful and zesty on the palate. Real filigree texture. Lovely and complete. Quite long. Quite a bargain for Berrys.

Delicate nose. Fresh and delicate on the palate too without any agressive acidity. You'd never guess it was only 2g/l dosage from how well balanced and fruity it tastes, so congratulations!

Medium Bodied, Sweet, White, Riesling, For laying down, 7.5% alc.

The discretely sheltered Brücke vineyard is the smallest and probably the most famous in the whole Nahe; its combination of slate and loess allied to a steep  aspect and proximity to the river, always guarantee some of the most complex wines of the vintage. This is no ... MORE

Medium-Full Bodied, Brut, White, Champagne Blend, Drink now, 12% alc.

The reputation of Bouzy resides in the quality and style of its Pinot Noirs, generally ripe, rich and very expressive. All three of these adjectives apply to this, the signature wine from Champagne Bara, 50% of which is from the 2005 harvest, the balance a blend of older reserve wines. A charming ... MORE

The Grande Cellier is made from 70% Chardonnay and 30% Pinot Noir, its fruit coming from 2004, 2005 and 2006. Flowery and spicy on the nose, the wine develops pleasingly on the palate with praline and hazelnut to the fore and a strong finish with notes of crystallized fruits.

For lunar, ready loony. For certified,certifiable. That's no doubt how many sane people regard biodynamics. Yet when the techniques are succesfully employed to create delicious wines such as Tuscany's intense mulberry-fruity 2004 Cairossa, its enough to give the agnostic in us all pause for ... MORE

Medium-Full Bodied, Dry, Red, Nebbiolo, Ready, but will improve, Cork Closure, 13.5% alc.

With its seductive perfume, this is classic Nebbiolo, full of sour cherry and rose-petal flavours, and tightly bound in a muscular structure of fine tannins and savoury acidity.
