Since Tony Laithwaite first worked in Castillon in 1967, he has been a champion of the region. As Wine International wrote, and he believes: ''If it weren't for the line dividing Castillon from Saint Emilion, its wines would be twice the price. The hills are the same, the soil is the same, the exposure is the same.'' In 1980 Tony bought Château La Clarière and has been proving his point ever since, winning Golds and Trophies, and twice the coveted Paris' Lauréat Prix d'Excellence.
The 2019 La Clarière has two Gold medals and shows off the "exceptional balance" (Antoni Galloni) of the "through-the-roof-good" (robertparker.com) 2019 Bordeaux vintage. Jancis Robinson said that "tasting the 2020s was a real joy" and the 2020 La Clarière reflects that joy with six Golds, Double Gold, and Grand Gold. 2021 was a more challenging vintage, yet the 2021 La Clarière still garnered Grand Gold and Gold – which really shows its mettle!
Whether you choose the beautifully balanced 2019, the joyously fruity 2020 or the elegant and refined 2021, you will have a stunning addition to your banquet table. If you're feeling very decadent, you could open one of each and have a fascinating tasting. Invite some wine loving friends around and make an event of it!

After all, right across Italy, Prosecco is the bubbly of choice and as much a part of daily life as a gelato or an espresso.
This wine comes from northern Italian native Alessandro Gallici. He knows every grape grower worth knowing, every premium vineyard, and has spent his life making outstanding wines.
Softly spoken but passionate, he was for years president of a large winery, then started his own business focusing on a range of bespoke wines bearing his own name.
Our latest shipment is beautifully fresh and delicious.
Serve chilled as an aperitivo or add fresh peach juice to make Bellini cocktails.

It proudly owns 360 hectares of vineyard throughout the three subregions, with this luscious cellar-release Gran Reserva named after its first plots, planted in the village of Bergasa.
Only the finest Tempranillo grapes are hand selected for the Altos de Bergasa Gran Reserva Rioja 2016. The wine is aged at least a year in barrel and the rest of the time in bottle. 8 years' age lends a mellow red fruit softness to the nose, with aromas of leather and tobacco. The silky red fruits continue on the palate, complemented by vanilla and spice on a long, indulgent finish. Decant early and serve alongside potatoes cooked with spicy chorizo or a rack of slow-cooked pork ribs.
Life's too short for regrets. Say yes to Rioja now!

It ended up being considerably longer than intended, but all's well that ends well, because 10 years later it's proved to be absolutely stunning – a silky, velvety luxury wine. A great choice with lamb.
