Château Lavabre La Closerie 2018

Item Code: 4164218

Description

We are flying the flag for one of France’s newest appellations – showcasing a French red of sophisticated quality and exceptional value. We trust you will be as excited about this wine as we are.



The Appellation

The Pic Saint-Loup was elevated to AOC status in 2016 in recognition of the region’s consistently outstanding wines. Named after the peak which bears the same name, the waters here are pristine, and the south-facing vineyards embrace the cool breezes of the Mediterranean.

The Wine

La Closiere is an 80/20 split of the region’s iconic Syrah and Grenache. Small barrels are used for the Syrah (half of them new), while the Grenache is left to its own devices in larger 2,000L foudres. At 15% alcohol level, this is a hefty beast of a red but retains a beautiful elegance thanks to exquisite craftsmanship.

The Reviews

Château Lavabre La Closerie 2018 has been racking up some excellent scores from the world’s top wine critics…

Jeb Dunnuck awards it a massive 95pts:

“… a blockbuster bouquet of black fruits, camphor, graphite, ground pepper, and cured meats. With a touch more finesse and focus compared to the appellation release, it's full-bodied and has a beautifully balanced, concentrated, elegant mouthfeel, ripe tannins, and a great finish…”

Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate gives it 94pts:

“Blueberries, blackberries and licorice notes mark the nose, supported by hints of crushed stone and spicy oak. It's full-bodied and ripe but still balanced, with a more streamlined feel than the other Lavabre reds, along with silky tannins and a long, licorice-laden finish.”

And an impressive 17.5/20 from Jancis Robinson:

“Opulent! Incredibly concentrated… Lots of sweetness but at the same time it isn't sweet. Fig molasses. Coal dust. Graphite. Caraway. Lots of texture on those tannins… Huge power and broad, glossy, muscled shoulders. Nothing understated about this wine."

Cuvée du Vatican Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2020

Item Code: 2139620

Description

Top critic Robert Parker once said of this domain that he loved the “powerful, rich, in your face style of wine” it made. That’s due to the tiny yields Jean-Marc Diffonty ekes out from his meticulously tended vineyards of gnarly old vines.

Top critic Robert Parker once said of this domain that he loved the “powerful, rich, in your face style of wine” it made. That’s due to the tiny yields Jean-Marc Diffonty ekes out from his meticulously tended vineyards of gnarly old vines. His family launched the Cuvée du Vatican label in 1958 with the blessing of the Pope. Even more impressive, this full-bodied red is the sister wine to Château Sixtine, a former IWC Châteauneuf-du-Pape of the Year.

Roche Lacour Crémant de Limoux 2021

Item Code: 4346821

Description

No wonder Roche Lacour has become our best-loved vintage fizz of all time. It’s made using the same painstaking process as Grande Marque Champagne, yet is far better value. With toasty richness, it's the smartest way to pop a cork and add a sparkle.

Low Stock Château Les Moutins 2020

Château Les Moutins 2020

Item Code: 4136320

Description

For a bright, fresh Bordeaux Sauvignon, you won't beat this eight-Golds 2020 from Jean Gueridon. It's old vines with meticulous care, that give it such intensity and freshness, with a light floral touch to the citrusy fruit.



Jean Gueridon is the proud owner and winemaker of Château Les Moutins in the beautiful rolling hills of Bordeaux's Entre-Deux-Mers. Jean bought the estate in 1995 and has been upping the quality every year since. On his extensive vineyards of clay and limestone, he grows mostly Sauvignon Blanc, with a touch of Sémillon, on vines that are mostly 40 years old.

No wonder, then, the concentration in the wine is so good. It certainly bowled over judges in eight competitions, winning Gold every time. With three months ageing on its lees, the wine has lovely texture and roundness, with a creamy note to the bright citrus and grassy fruit and lift of blossom. Chilled down, it's a cracker on its own, or with seafood or goat's cheese soufflé.

La Tire Organic 2022

Item Code: 3475522

Description

Jeff Carrel’s La Tire isn't shy of an award or two. Each vintage this classy Carignan-Syrah attracts high praise from critics. Jeff sources grapes from high-up slopes, difficult to access. All the richer for that, with peppery black fruit and spice.
