Antonio Federici Rosso Roma 2021

Item Code: 3737421

Description

Appealing, silky, ripe artisan red from close to Rome - cherry-laden with warming oak spice.



Antonio Federici is a small, 3rd-generation cellar in Lazio, just south of Rome. As you'll taste here, its wines are both authentic and delicious. Normally, they only supply their meagre output to top restaurants in Rome.

But with most shut in 2020, we managed to gain a small allocation of this superb, cherry-scented red. And again, the following year. On fine limestone soils (the rocks of which were used to build some of Rome's most famous buildings) they grow some of Italy's most characterful native grapes.

From these they make a small range of award-winning wines. No doubt the skill of top Italian consultant Franco and Matteo Bernabei comes into play, as well as the commitment and passion of the family.

A silky, smooth, easy red.

Bendito Reserva Shiraz Cabernet 2022

Item Code: 4399122

Description

For lovers of juicy ripe reds, this sun-kissed Aussie wine is the cat’s pyjamas. Individually sourced parcels of grapes, fermented, then blended ensure an overflow of fruit forward flavour. Silky plum, raspberry and a sinuous smoky wrap.



This juicy, full-of-fruit red sums up the best of Aussie wine – gorgeous ripe flavour, good intensity and freshness. Way & Cat is short for ‘wayfaring catador’, catador being Spanish for taster.

So the name is a tribute to how the team source their fruit – they head out into the vineyards to taste the grapes of their grower friends. When they find the selections they like, they vinify each parcel separately, then blend the results into fruit first expressions of the varieties they chose. That blend changes vintage by vintage, depending on what performs well that year. It's top for versatility too – great as a glass on its own, tasty with roasted vegetable quiche, sausage and mash. And just the ticket at a barbecue.

Vertiges 2022

Item Code: 4089322

Description

The name 'Vertiges' translates as 'fear of heights'. Apt for a wine made from grapes gathered on precipitous slopes by Peyrepertuse Castle. 500m above sea level on a ragged Pyrenean peak, the vines produce a wine with luscious, ripe flavour.



A fear of heights is a non-starter for those working in the vineyards of Vallée du Paradis. They perch perilously on the slopes below Peyrepertuse, an ancient Cathar fortress some 800m high in the Pyrenees. So collecting the intensely fruity, aromatic grapes is not for the faint-hearted. Luckily, winemaker Benjamin Andrieu is willing to put fear aside to tend them.

?The result is a really appealing red, with bright fruit and seductively spiced notes. Syrah brings ripe blackberry, herbs and liquorice notes, while juicy Grenache and peppery Carignan add even more depth and body. A top choice for those who love smooth, silky reds with the warmth of southern France. Great with grilled meats, pasta with pesto, aubergine bake or on its own.

Le Tarral Montpeyroux 2018

Item Code: 4237018

Description

Southern France's Languedoc produces red wines of remarkable richness and depth. Long lived too, when they come from smart areas like Monpeyroux. A 3-way split of deeply concentrated Carignan, Grenache and Syrah, it's velvety with herbal black fruit.

Ambitious to achieve full cru status, Montpeyroux lies just northeast of Montpellier, nestled in the foothills of famous Larzac, the wines of which go for a high sum. Montpeyroux is a small village that has been prized for its exceptional wines since the Romans. It used to be an important trading post, as well as a refuge for pilgrims on their long trudge to Santiago de Compostella. This spring, our buyer based close by discovered this terrific red in the local wine bar and sought out the cellar. Vineyards here are buffeted all year round by the strong local wind, La Tramontane. It helps keep the vines disease-free and means the grapes ripen only slowly. Old-vine Carignan, Grenache and Syrah, it's a rich dark partner for a hearty casserole.

Château de Lussac 2004

Item Code: 4298004

Description

Lussac is a satellite appellation of Saint-Emilion, renowned for its high-quality, good-value clarets. Château de Lussac is one of the best, this superb 2004 showing mature notes of mellow, toasty red fruit, with hints of cedar and spice box.

Château de Lussac is a historic property, dating back to Gallo-Roman times. Vineyards were first planted by Benedictine monks, while the château you see today was built in 1876. It has changed hands three times, most recently purchased by the Laviale family in the early 2000s. They have worked hard to elevate the estate to be one of the leading properties of this satellite Saint-Emilion appellation. Most of the 23 hectares of vines are Merlot, with a little Cabernet Franc, bordered to the north by woodland. This superb, 20-year-old claret was aged for 15 months in 30% new oak, the rest in one-year-old barrels to lend this wine its structure and longevity. Showing mellow fruit complexity, enjoy alongside simple meat dishes or a firm cheeses.
