This dry Italian red classic is a Super Tuscan is a superb collector's wine from the Tuscan coast. It is a non traditional blend of French grapes grown in central Italy;  Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot translate here to a dry, full bodied wine with balancing tart cherry fruit with darker tones of blackberry and plum. This vintage delivers especially chiselled and focused fruit characteristics that are elegantly framed by light spice, cola and earth. This vintage shows a heightened sense of intensity and territorial identity that is the hallmark of this storied estate.

Lots of mint with sage and fresh rosemary to the currant and orange character on the nose, as well as some ripe raspberries. The palate is very refined with creamy and crunchy tannins that run the length of the wine. It shows a crunchy and energetic personality. Give it a year or two to come together, but it?s showing brightness for the vintage. Drink after 2027.

Made with Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, the Tenuta San Guido 2022 Guidalberto gives you a good taste of the same DNA that brings us one of Italy's greatest wines, Sassicaia, but it's offered in a more immediate style here (thanks to the addition of the Merlot). This warm vintage opens to medium-dark concentration and very plump aromas that take you immediately to blackberry and blackcurrant sitting out in the sun at your local farmers market. The wine shows a soft and gentle side with a pretty level of elegance transmitted through the fruit freshness and the light oak spice that is discernible here but delivered with grace.

Lazy Days Lychee Gin is an ode to those days where you ?should be? doing lots but are deciding stuff it, adult responsibilities can wait while you do whatever the hell you want.  It?s different for all of us what these days look like; for some it?s a day tramping up a mountainside, for others it?s endless episodes of trash reality tv. Whatever your lazy day looks like, this is the gin for it.

42% Alc./Vol.

A marriage of whisky matured in sweet sauternes wine casks, together with classic Ardbeg aged in ex-bourbon casks.

Colour - Amber

Aroma - Very distinctively oily, with touches of extra virgin olive oil, sweet briar wood, aromatic herbs (coriander & sage) and a suggestion of smoked lemon peel. A splash of water releases more oiliness, like linseed oil, a gentle waxiness, and a burst of perfumed, aromatic carbolic soap, and finally, a whiff of crème brulee.

Taste - A soft, oily, mouthcoating texture leads into a rich, sweet, smoky palate, with hints of oak moss, treacle, aniseed lozenges and a lovely, sweet, woody/balsamic flavour. This is then followed by smoked apricots and eucalyptus oil.

Finish - Finally comes a lingering, sweet/smoky aftertaste, with a touch of cumin, cardamon and the merest hint of coconut.

Wonderfully intricate with honeyed butterscotch, spiced oak, and raisin fruit, showcasing the complexity of the Sistema Solera aging process

Reminiscent of slow and salty days, this is an easy drinking Gin made for sharing. Native Australian Wattleseed& Pink Peppercorn are brightened with zesty Wax flower, Hibiscus, Citrus peel & a hint of Oyster shell.

Best enjoyed in the Sun with soda water and a fresh wedge of Orange.

Commercial description...

Blackadder is proud to introduce Aurantia, our pot-distilled gin, handcrafted for us in The Netherlands.

The name Aurantia comes from the Latin Aurantium, found within the citrus family. It is these citrus notes that give the layers of mouthwatering flavour to our gin.

Aurantia is great for a classic G&T, or just poured over ice. This is gin with a bold, yet soft, sweet-and-sour citrus twist. Perfect for cocktails and long drinks.

Aurantia is bottled with the same care and attention we take with all of our spirits. This means no chill filtration and minimal intervention so as to ensure Aurantia is a truly pure and natural gin.

A single malt with a bold, tropical twist. A portion of this whisky is finished in barrels that previously held Caribbean rum - the result is a well balanced and exceptionally smooth whisky. Single malt, meet summer.
