All wines are available at Marks and Spencer
Ribeek Old Vine Chenin Blanc - South Africa - Price €13
Chenin Blanc is South Africa's most commonly planted white grape and makes everything from inexpensive quaffers to fine complex long lived wines. This is from the ultra-trendy region of Swartland, filled with hipsters and cook young winemakers - and lots of old gnarly vines making great wine. This is a vibrant tropical zesty white with flavours of Citrus, peach, apricot, flint. The Old Vine Project of South Africa recognises the importance of caring for vineyards to allow vines to have a healthy and productive old age, thus creating a sustainable farming model. This Chenin Blanc is made exclusively for M&S Riebeek Valley Wines from 35-year-old vines carefully cultivated by the 22 families who found the winery almost 80 years ago. Best enjoyed chilled within 3 years of purchase.
Bardolino Chiaretto Rose, Veneto, Italy - Price €14
From the hills around Lake Garda in the Veneto - Bardolino is a pretty lakeside village just 30km from Verona. Bardolino Chiaretto is made from the same grapes as Valpolicella and Amarone. Cherry fruits, cherry skin tangy freshness and pleasing elegance. Chiaretto rosé wines are produced in northern Italy's Bardolino region where the wine grapes grown on the glacial hillside soil impart freshness and a lovely minerality. Made from the Corvina grape, with some Rondinella and Molinara, the lightly grippy structure and crisp finish pairs well with seafood, pasta, and tasty vegetable dishes. Serve chilled.
Matetic Estela Lunar Pinot Noir - Casablanca, Chile - Price €18
Pinot Noir is the great grape of red Burgundy that grows well in just a few places in the world. Burgundy is the most famous, parts of coastal California and New Zealand are some others but the most overlooked is the Pacific Coastal vineyards of Chile such as the Casablanca Valley an hour north of Santiago
A vibrant, smooth, and elegant wine with flavours of cherry, blueberry, spice.
