Cantina di Monteforte’s Clivus Valpolicella Ripasso is a rich, intense, and dry red featuring prominent cherry jam, plum, and raisin notes, balanced by spice, vanilla, and supple tannins. It offers a medium-bodied, velvety profile with high acidity and a warm, fruit-forward finish.

Ethereal, fresh, appealing to both the nose and the palate, Pédesclaux’s second wine is a flower that unfurls as you approach. Thanks to its reliance on a high proportion of Merlot, the wine is soft and gentle, with a delicious, silky texture. It has intense, compelling and savoury fruit aromas and, year after year, beautifully calibrated scents of white flowers, violets and small red berries. Exhibiting a more high-spirited elegance yet nonetheless showing remarkable length, Fleur de Pédesclaux is a delight. In the mouth, it is fresh, subtle, packed with fruit and beautifully smooth tannins, with a long finish. In this more floral expression, the marvellous complexity of our terroir is once again evident, but in a mouth-watering style that is instantly festive.

Château Cos d’Estournel Les Pagodes de Cos 2018 is the elegant second wine from the historic Château Cos d’Estournel, a Deuxième Cru of Saint-Estèphe founded in 1811 by Louis-Gaspard d’Estournel, famed for his global reach and distinctive pagoda-topped chateau. The vineyards sit on classic left-bank gravel and clay-limestone soils that provide excellent drainage and structure, nurtured for refined ripeness and balanced acidity. Vinification is traditional, with careful sorting, temperature-controlled fermentation and around 12 months in French oak to lend subtle spice and texture. The 2018 blend is 54% Cabernet Sauvignon, 37% Merlot, 6% Petit Verdot and 3% Cabernet Franc, showing concentrated black- and red-berry fruit, spice and silky tannins with a long, fresh finish — a poised, compelling Saint-Estèphe second wine.

Mixed clones from Pisa Terrace were destemmed into 1.5T fermenters, cooled, and briefly raked. After 5–6 days, fermentation began and caps were submerged for 21 days, peaking at ~30°C. Once dry and balanced, the wine was pressed to old barrels, underwent natural malolactic in spring, and was bottled unfined and unfiltered the following spring.

If you fancy a smooth and very fruity red wine to enjoy with delicately flavoured food like pasta or white meat, Legaris Roble is the perfect red wine to choose.  This Ribera del Duero, made from 100% Tinta Fina (Tempranillo), also displays touches of vanilla from the time it spent in oak.  Pure fruit in your glass. Don't over-think, just relax and enjoy it, calmly.  

Origin
This wine is made from estate-owned vineyards in Villafranca del Duero, specifically from vineyards close to the left bank of the river Duero where the valley foothills begin their gentle undulations and scenic meanders. This is where the river is at its widest and most fierce. The combination of location, orientation, and calcareous soils – gravelly loam and river stones from the riverbed – highlight the expression of the Verdejo variety in this location by intensifying its aromas.  

DO Rueda
DO Rueda is located in the central zone of the drainage basin that forms the river Duero and the high plateau whose gentle undulating topography is subject to the Atlantic winds. The DO is between 700 and 800 metres above sea level extending over areas in the provinces of Valladolid, Segovia, and Ávila. Its relief, gravelly soils, and continental climate make this an ideal region in which to make white wines, especially from the Verdejo variety.

About the Wine:

Variety: 50% Macabeo (Viura), 50% a blend of Verdil, Malvasía, Pedro Ximénez and other local varieties.

Aged in clay. Organic. 6 months in amphoras.

Cullerot 2024 is a fresh, aromatic, and elegant white wine, with a Mediterranean touch that balances delicacy and playfulness. Its notes of dried hay, fennel, and yellow flowers with a clean and precise sensation on the palate, offering a gentle yet characterful freshness. It appears easy to drink, yet serious in its complexity, and its long finish invites you to enjoy a sunny afternoon, a light aperitif, or simply let the Mediterranean essence fill your glass. Irresistible.

The name Cullerot means tadpole in Valencian.

About the Producer:

Celler del Roure is nothing short of the pioneer of quality wine in the DO Valencia. Until recently, Valencia was only known for its cheap bulk wines, but it is now blossoming into one of Spain most interesting wine regions. Thanks to the estate, which rehabilitated long-forgotten local grapes like the red Mando and the white Verdil, and also rediscovered the use of amphoras.

Pablo Calatayud is like the exception that proves the rule. He has no family roots in wine. He is a newcomer in the profession, which is not really a bad thing in a region like Valencia, where it is better not to follow the « tradition » of high yields, low prices and bad quality. He was lucky enough not to be influenced by all this and to start with a sound basis. His family is active in the local furniture business but supports his project wholeheartedly. Since a few years, his wife Sandra has also been working on the estate. The vineyard is located in Clariano, Valencia’s hinterland, a region with an enormous wine potential. Pablo’s wine story began in 1995-1996, just after he finished his agronomy and oenology studies. Then, with the help of his father and brother, he decided to buy an estate in the highlands and plant it with vines. French grapes, but also old local varieties, which bear witness to the Valencian wine history (even if most of them are long forgotten). In 2000, Pablo produced the first vintage of his Alcusses (the name is a reference to an Iberian settlement dating 4 centuries BC). On the labels of the wines and in the boxes, we'll find the text of a small tin plaque dating from these times, found on the estate. It is written in paleo-hispanic. This is a way for Pablo to pay his dues to the culture of this beautiful region. Pablo’s ambition re-dynamised the whole region. Several other estates followed his example and started producing quality wines, in accordance with their terroirs and tradition. Pablo’s most important decision was the purchase of an old bodega on the mountainside. There they found a real treasure: nearly 100 dug-in amphoras in an almost perfect state of conservation. This is something really unique, all the more so as these amphoras are nearly 500 years old ! Pablo is experimenting with making white and red wines in them, and the results are encouraging. This estate’s future looks bright and the birth of Pablo’s first daughter, Carla, on March 8th 2011, only confirmed it.

Pablo can use a wide range of grapes, but after 15 years on the estate, he knows which ones are really interesting. He thus grafted Monastell onto his Tempranillo, since this last variety did not seem suited to the area. Pablo’s estate covers 66 hectares of old and young vines, more precisely: 14.5 ha of Merlot, 12.5 ha of Monastrell, 12 ha of Cabernet Sauvignon, 7 ha of Tintorera, 6.5 ha of Petit Verdot, 6.5 ha of Syrah, 4 ha of Mandó and 2.5 ha of Chardonnay. He also buys some Macabeu, Malvasía, Pedro Ximenez and Verdil grapes for his whites. As far as red grapes are concerned, he has a special interest in Mandó, a very delicate variety that was nearly exctinct, and which needs a skillful ageing process. Pablo also likes Monastrell (also known as Mourvèdre), a very Mediterranean grape quite common down south. Last but not least, the red-pulp Tintorera, which plays an increasing part on the estate. The other grapes like Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Merlot and Syrah add structure, body, juicy tannins, and spiciness to the wines, respectively. The vines of these varieties are more than 15 years old. Pablo farms the estate organically. Celler del Roure takes part in several university experiments on water stress, canopy management, vine training methods, etc…\

Terroir:

Vineyards are divided between four fincas, on the northern flank of the Serra Grossa (“l’Ombria”) and in the Alforins-Alcusses vale. The average altitude is 550 m. Most soils are very poor in organic matter - mostly sands, clay and limestone. The area is in a transition climate – this is what is called the pre-meseta, a link between the high plateau of Castilla La Mancha and the Costera valleys (Vall d’Albaida and Rio Cànyoles). The mountain ranges guide the wind coming from the interior (El Poniente) to the vineyard; the area also takes advantage of the humid breezes coming from the Mediterranean (El Levante), which gives the region some 600 mm of rainfall.

Ciù Ciù Arbinus Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi DOP Classico is a fine Italian white wine originating from the Marche region. It is made from 100% Verdicchio grapes grown in the hills surrounding the medieval town of Jesi. The wine has a delicate pale yellow color with greenish hues and a pleasing and complex aroma with floral notes, aromas of peach, and a mineral sensation. The taste is intense, fresh, and balanced with a long finish that is citrusy. This wine is perfect for pairing with seafood, white meat, and fresh cheeses. This DOC Classico is one of the most appreciated Verdicchio wines and has won many awards in Italy and internationally.

From Val do Salnes in Rias Baixas grown on Quartz Rich granite sandy soils & trained on traditional emparrada pergola's. on 20-25 year old vines. 

Fermented for 14 days in stainless steel. 

A brilliant expression of Rias Biaxas Albarino

Tasting Notes
This Albariño is a very lively pale gold, with green reflections. Pazo Cilleiro has an intense nose, with pronounced notes of citrus and white fruit (pears, apples and white peaches), as well as floral hints. The palate is vibrant and fresh, with the fruit from the nose filling the mouth. It has the typical intense texture of a well-grown Albariño, with a round, persistent and pleasantly refreshing finish.

Vineyards
The grapes are selected from small vineyards around the winery in Salnés Valley, which is the heart of Rias Baixas, along Spain’s northwest coast. The soil is granitic, rich in quartz, with a sandy texture, and the average age of the vines is between 20 to 25 years. The climate is Atlantic, with moderate temperatures and an abundance of rain.

Winemaking
The grapes were destemmed, gently pressed and then transferred to stainless steel vats, where they were fermented over 14 days. The finished wine rests in bottle for an average of two months before release.

Priorat is one of Spain's most esteemed regions for red wine, alongside Rioja & Ribera del Duero, and the most famous region for Grenache in Spain. The Llicorella slate and huge diurnal shifts contribute to powerful and ageable wines!

Made from Carinena & Garnacha fermented on skins for 11-12 days in stainless steel tanks at 24 degrees celcius. 70% was aged in French oak Barriques (20% new), & 30% in 30 hectolitre French oak foudres. 

Salmos is the spanish name for Psalms & is a tribute to the Carthusian Monks who first planted vines in Priorat.

This wine is graceful and elegant.

On the nose and rolling into the palate, yuzu oil and orange zest are laced with white florals and enchanting summer herbs. There is our trademark hint of white pepper which skips across the palate intertwined with well-balanced acidity. A subtle minerality glides through this wine, leaving a beautifully clean and refreshing finish. Be Bold, drink Riesling.

The 2025 release clocks over a decade of crafting this irresistible, sun-soaked Albariño - still utterly moreish, still mouthwatering, still our unofficial taste of summer.

Think warm evenings, bare feet, and salt on your skin.
A lifted nose of lime zest, sea spray and that first breath when you step onto the beach. The palate echoes the aromatics, woven together with bright, crystalline acidity that gives the wine its signature savoury edge.

Hints of oyster shell, fresh fennel and a cool, saline minerality glide through the glass, all wrapped in a dreamy, sun-drenched haze. There’s beautiful form here - poised, graceful, quietly luxurious.

100% Amphora fermented - an exploration and celebration of our Moutere Clays.
A wine of tension and texture that celebrates both power & grace.
However, this wine is in no way, tense. It is serene, meditative, contemplative and confident.
The palate is lifted by a savoury lick of salt-block minerality and a whisper of summer citrus.
Unshackled from tradition, the result is a contemporary, delicious wine for the chardonnay obsessed or averse.
A complex and captivating nod to the old world.
