Cartlidge & Browne Napa Valley Pinot Noir
Napa and Sonoma, California, USA 
1 x 75cl Bottle
Cartlidge & Browne sources fruit for their wines from vineyards across the North Coast AVA. Sourcing from this region gives us the flexibility to select only the best lots of Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, and Chardonnay from Napa and Sonoma Counties. Our wines range from big, bold, heavy reds to lighter-bodied reds and whites; with Cartlidge & Browne, you cannot go wrong as there is a vintage for every wine lover.

"The question that begs to be answered is why so many producers ignore what Cartlidge and Browne does better than just about anybody else in the state, produce fruit forward, pure, varietally correct, delicious wines." - Wine Advocate Magazine

Heaphy Estate Pinot Noir 
Nelson, New Zealand
1 x 75cl Bottle
Certainly one of the most attractively packaged wines online, but its not all about appearances with this one. Pinot from just three vineyards make this wine. 
Heaphy Pinot Noir is a gently perfumed and characterful wine, expressive of Nelson unique breezy and warm terroir. A well-balanced profile, showing plenty of fruit, energy, and desired juiciness.


Montsable Reserve Pinot Noir 
Limoux, France
1 x 75cl Bottle
This wine comes from the French wine-making project of our good friend and Master Of Wine Fergal Tynan. He's originally from Celbridge and now has fantastic and fanatic wine making projects across the globe. Never far from Grenache or Garnacha, this particular set of wines comes from France and sits under the label they created called Terres Fidèles, which literally means "faithful lands". The team here have identified grape varieties that many others ignore in favour of middle-of-the-road commercialised styles; working with seriously small and tatty-looking plots of land, this is a labour of love and a project that will be years and years in the making before anyone makes any return on investment. But until then, we get the sensational fruit of their labours...! The wine is awesome and is aged in French Oak Barriques.

Solevari Reserve Pinot Noir 
Tsibilsi, Romania
1 x 75cl Bottle
Back in 1988, three families decided to invest in a winery in Romania, starting with 650 hectares of slightly unloved vineyards and a rusty, once state-owned winery.
Yet Englishman Philip Cox and his Romanian wife Elvira, have turned the Cramele Recas Estate into the most successful winery in Romania. Recas are now recognised globally for their impressive scale and breadth of fascinating wines, including natural and orange wine from organic grapes. Despite the scale the emphasis is on making good wines that over-deliver, and as a result they’ve struck on a magic formula that has seen sales and demand boom. Vineyards are a combination of evolved plantings from 1447 and more recent planting, whilst the winery has seen significant investment and boasts state of the art facilities where innovation thrives. Recas are in every way a modern, dynamic winery, whose open minded approach and quality sets them apart … a winery you really can’t ignore.

Shadow Point Pinot Noir 
Monterey,California
1 x 75cl Bottle
This Pinot combines delicious red cherry and dried cranberry concentration, with a touch of dark spice. The palate has wild bramble and cherry pie notes. It finishes bright, fresh and gently toasty.
Fruit comes from a vineyard in Monterey, California’s Central Coast region and is next to a chain of hills which separate the vineyards from the Pacific coast. The site benefits from the cooling breezes from the Pacific and as such lends itself to Pinot Noir. Fruit is destemmed before undergoing a period of cold maceration. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks and 30% of the blend has then spent 8 months on medium toast French oak.

Domaine iCare Pinot Noir 
Alignan, France
1 x 75cl Bottle

Situated in the village of Neffiès, the Cave d’Alignan du Vent is a co-operative of 300 wine growers who cultivate some of the most diverse vineyards in southern France. Since it’s formation in 2002, Alignan has seen significant ongoing investment in state of the art wine making equipment which has allowed the group to maximise the diversity of soil types and microclimatic conditions.
Pretty and enticing on the nose, with notes of boysenberry, cherry and fragrant, dusky florals. On the palate, crunchy dark cherry, cranberry and hedgerow fruit notes burst in the mouth and bring an immediate sense of freshness.
