Juicy red with complex savoury notes following in the wake of lush berry flavours, made 100% from Cabernet Franc from Domaine Moly Saumur. This is a new producer for us in store at Regional and we're thrilled to bring this wine to you from French winemaker Etienne Moly, a respected producer in the Loire Valley, France. 

Cabernet Sauvignon is one of the key grapes in the south of France and this one comes from two areas; the Cévennes and the Aude Valley. It's full bodied, dry and has smooth fruit forward flavours balanced by Cabernet's famous structured tannins, which add complexity and grip to the finish. We think this wine rocks great value for money - and tastes approachable right now.

Corbieres is a large appellation in the Languedoc in the south of France and is best known for its deep, dark, full bodied reds, like this wine, made from Grenache and Syrah. The region's warm climate and variety of soils mean that wines from Corbieres tend to gain a complex range of flavours from fruity to earthy and spicy. This wine delivers big time on flavour and is great value for money.

Ogereau Anjou Rouge Enjouee 2022 is a blend of Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Grolleau, Gamay and Pineau d'Aunis. It has a fresh and delicate taste with red berry fruit and a vibrant youthful joyfulness.

The wine is made using organic grapes that are trained using the Guyot Poussard method. It undergoes full malolactic fermentation and is aged for about five months in underground, tile-lined tanks to preserve the fruit's freshness. The wine is also lightly filtered through earth.

Very deep purple Cabernet Franc made from 35 to 50 year old vines, which express a beautiful clarity of ripe red fruit and lifted aromatics. Great structure and fine tannins that ride over the palate to a long finish. Impressive now and can age.

A delicious and quirky southern French red with a super smooth velvety mouthfeel. This wine is biodynamically certified and lives up to this noble credential. It's a blend of Braucol, Duras and Syrah blend with another couple of red French grapes thrown in for good measure. This wine is medium ruby in colour with soft and fleshy flavours mid palate followed by firm tannins on an impressively structured finish.

The sunny coastal terroir of southern Languedoc is perfect for crisp whites like Picpoul. This is a fresh and crisp Picpoul with great concentration and depth of flavour. Aromatic and fresh, with notes of pear and citrus on the nose. The palate brings a touch of minerality and lime-like acidity. The finish is persistent, with a distinct aniseed flavour. Picpoul is a perfect match for seafood or light Mediterranean foods.

A light, chillable red made from Nielluccio, a relative of Sangiovese that?s widely grown in the north of Corsica, with Merlot. Uncomplicated, fragrant and dry, Nielluccio brings the aromatics and character, Merlot brings it?s supple, round profile.

From the southern part of the island of Corsica, Casa Rossa produce wines from both local and international varieties. The vineyards are situated on clay-limestone soils. While Corsica is territorially French, it certainly has a strong identity of its own.

Domaine Olga Raffault is one of the region's most respected wine producers and here's a superb example of Cabernet Franc from the Loire - spicy, refreshing, structured and elegant with weight and depth of flavour making it one for the cellar as well as now. Bright, bold, fresh take on the Cabernet Franc theme with approachably smooth and soft berry flavours.

Olga and her husband Pierre operated the estate together until he died unexpectedly just before harvest in 1947. Alone with two small children, Olga was left to run the business but was ably assisted for the vintage by employee Ernest Zenninger, a German prisoner who had found refuge and work at Raffault at the end of the war. Ernest stayed on, becoming the winemaker and working closely with Olga?s son Jean Raffault. The two of them ran the estate as a team for decades, under Olga?s watchful eye, until Jean?s daughter Sylvie and her husband Eric de la Vigerie took over about 10 years ago. The farming is certified organic and harvest is manual. This minimalist approach in the vineyard extends to the cellar. The fruit is destemmed, with the whole berries going uncrushed into tank for fermentation with native yeasts.

Brother and sister Pierre and Veronique took over the domain from their parents in 1993 and have carefully maximised the huge potential of the estate. Their wines are superb and constantly gain more and more recognition from discerning wine lovers and critics. 

The vineyard has now more than doubled in size without diminishing the quality which is quite a rare achievement.

The Petit Closi Muscat sec is a white wine made from 50% Muscat petit grain and 50% Muscat of Alexandria. 

The result is an aromatic and dry muscat that is a beautiful golden yellow colour in the glass and offers powerful but elegant flavours of apricot and melon with a honeyed finish.

A Jura Chardonnay from 50 year old vines grown on West facing Lias Marls in Cesancey.

Aged in 500L barrels for two years.

The 2020 vintage was a warmer year, giving a resulting Salted Caramel & eucalyptus on the nose & Green apple, Honey, white flower & salty caramel flavours to the wine, with a real tension on the palate.

If Chenin has fallen off your fine wine drinking radar, try this fabulous French example, made from grapes grown on soils of flint and limestone. Flavours of fresh green apples, honey and citrus all combine in every beautifully balanced sip of this outstanding Loire Valley Chenin Blanc from top producer, Bernard Fouquet.
