 ...these Cinsault vines are more than 40 years old, so the resulting fruit has bags ofcharacter, and the wine is not filtered or fined so has not lost any of itspersonality getting from vat to bottle. Obviously, at this price, this is an unoaked wine, but a four-week maceration has resulted in no shortage of varietal character. I loved its perfume, its fruity, soft, charming start, andenjoyed the juicy crunch on the finish. This is a simple wine, but delightfully so, designed for drinking over the next six to eight months.

Although nominally a second wine, Dom Rafael is of very high quality, more approachable than its more tannic sibling (Mouchao) but not without concentration and real complexity. The majority of the grapes, all of which are indigenous and relatively unknown, are trodden by foot in old granitic lagares. They are then assembled and matured for over a year in large wooden vats before release. Both the diligence of the winemaking and the individuality of the grape varieties are evidenced in the 2005, a terrific and concentrated wine, with supple tannins, red and black fruits and a satisfying long and spicy finish.

Aussie wines aren't all old hat, as this astonishingly ripe, sweet, creamy, perfumed Shiraz proves. Its violet scent and berry fruit make it a good game red , especially with venison casserole.
(Jane MacQuitty - The Times - 17-Jan-2009)

"Fine, spicy, ultra-ripe currant jam. Big, yet seductive."

A blend of Mauzac, Chardonnay and Chenin Blanc, this extra-dry sparkler has fresh notes of lime and elegant, floral characters. The palate is bone dry with refreshing acidity. This is a great substitute to Champagne at a fraction of the price, and perfect for any occasion.

Croix's wine is a blend of 3 different vineyards in Beaune; the wine displays elegant red fruit with notes of raspberry. Fine structure on the palate with a natural acidity and good purity of fruit. A good value wine.
(4/5 stars - decanter.com - Top wines from the Burgundy 2007 tasting)

A blend of three vineyards, with a floral elegance coming from Les Blanches Fleurs and some Premier Cru sophistication from the Teurons, this has weight, charm and class, and is a wonderful demonstration of David Croix’s deft touch.

“Oremus is responsible for some of the sleekest and most elegant modern new-wave Tokajis to come from the historic Hungarian region. This is a glorious confection of finely oaked, rich marmaladey intensity with undertones of dried apricot, honey and raisin, all beautifully balanced by the typical acidity of the Furmit grape, which is very much the hallmark of the style.”

Beautiful black cherry aromas and hint of chocolate. The structure is compact yet elegant and supported by refreshing acidity. Lots of vibrant sweet but elegant black fruits on the palate and a fine minerality on the finish. Enjoy now or in the next four years, up to 2013.

A Volnay wirh beautiful purity of fruit with aromas of cherry and strawberry. Elegant complexity with fine tannin structure, a wine with a lot of charm;
(4/5 stars - decanter.com - Top wines from the Burgundy 2007 tasting)

Less immediately intense than the Auxey-Duresses this wine is softer and ultimately more stylish. Displaying a delicious, classic Volnay bouquet which brims with softly scented red cherry fruit, the wine has just enough tannic structure on the palate to enable it to develop complexity over the next three to four years.
