Les Vignerons de Maury Maury Solera 1928 cask number 894
Description: Maury lies in a valley to the east of Perpignan in the Roussillon. Here fortified wines are made from Grenache Noir, Grenache Gris and Carignan grapes. The wine is selected from 500 litres barrels that have lain undisturbed, apart from the occasional drawing, since the early days of the Co-operative. To produce this wine Gerard Gauby has tasted all the barrels and then 450 bottles are drawn from each barrel selected, and bottled by hand without fining or filtration. Next the barrels are topped up with the latest vintage so that each barrel has a different character; those with the highest volatility holding the greatest interest. This has produced a dark, aged, richly aromatic fortified wine. This tawny-brown confection is immensely rich and chocolatey, with complex, aged characters and undertones of spices, coffee and candied fruits.

Francois & Jean Calot CUVEE VIELLES VIGNES Morgon
Description: With so much neutral, characterless wine available from the villages of Beaujolais, it is easy to overlook the fact that there are still a number of growers with the passion and commitment to make wines that demand to be taken seriously. Francois Calot is one such winemaker. While still charmingly supple, his wines have a rich, spicy fruit quality and concentration which give them an additional dimension (12 x 75 cl) Price: £141.00
