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.

Domaine Mas Amiel Rouge Maury Description: This Maury is made in the same style as the rimage wines of Banyuls. From 100% Grenache Noir grown on the south-facing broken schists and marne soils and yields of 25 hl/ha, the grapes are subsequently sorted, destemmed and vinified in the normal way. The alcohol is added while the wine is still in the vat , which slows down the final fermentation, allowing a longer period of maceration and thereby conferring greater richness. This Maury is ruby with violet tints and the nose eloquently expresses framboise, cherry and crème-de-cassis. It is smooth in the mouth, the red fruits reinforced by bitter chocolate and spice as well as fine tannins. (12 x 75 cl) Price: £220.49
Bodegas Osborne Rare Old Soleras Palo Cortado Abocado Solera PDeltaP
Description: SOLERA PdeltaP Sherry The black bull silhouette of Osborne's trade mark is as much a symbol of Spain as it is of the major drinks group which began in Puerto de Santa Maria in the 18th century. Today, descendants of Thomas Osborne, a native of Exeter, still control the firm. Osborne began as a sherry house and it still boasts a near unrivalled range of wines. The flagship brand "Fino Quinta" is bottled under nitrogen and screw-capped to preserve its freshness; the rare fino-amontillado "Coquinero" is fuller bodied; Bailen is a true Oloroso, pungent and dry. The ultimate expression of sherry lies in the great solera wines. These are very old sherries drawn off in minute quantities from individual soleras: they are fabulous wines by any standard, winning gold medals whenever they are entered in shows, competitions or challenges. Only few houses successfully combine being both a Sherry and Port shippers. Osborne have been Port producers and shippers for nearly forty years; they bring the same concern for quality and authenticity (6 x 75 cl) Price: £439.95

Yields are a miserly 15hl/ha, Vinification is at 18c followed by a mutage to adjust the alcohol. The wine is then aged in tank on the fine lees.

In the mouth it is lively, round and supple and unleashes panoply of flavours including boxwood, star fruit, mandarin and juniper. (12 x 75 cl) Price: £220.49
