Paco and Lola Albarino
Rias Biaxas Spain
1 x 75cl
The Starter White
A Wonderful crisp fresh and clean albarino from the Northwest coast of Spain. In October 2020 this wine was crowned with 97+ points and a Platinum medal at the world wine awards. Out of 17,000 wines, just 178 of them were crowned with a platinum medal and a score this high – from a judge panel of over 500 wine professionals across the UK. A remarkable feat. This will go so incredibly well with Smoked salmon, seafood and any salads.
Bodegas Navajas Crianza Bianco
Haro, Rioja
1 x 75cl
The Main Course White
Light golden in colour, this oak aged white wine reveals an impressive and extremely well-balanced combination of fresh fruity flavours and charming smoky notes from the maturation in wood. It will work wonderfully well with Turkey at Christmas dinner as a result. It is full bodied, soft and round on the palate, the finish is long and very rewarding.
McGuigan Reserve Shiraz
South Australia
1 x 75cl
The Starter Red
Gold Star Winner 2019/2020. The first thing you notice about this wine is the lovely berry and spice aromas. Following this is the wonderful flavours of spicy plum, cherry and blackberry that flow through the mouth, resulting in an approachable fruit driven wine with a smooth and mouth filling finish. It is nicely balanced with great fruit characters and persistent flavours.
Chateau La Rose du Pin Bordeaux
Bordeaux, France
1 x 75cl
The Main Course Red
This wine comes out of the glass firing on all cylinders with a plethora of crushed black fruits, attractive notes of black cherries, blueberries, loganberries, minty freshness, oak references, mocha and milk chocolate. It’s an attractive nose that continues to present pleasant black fruits for as long as your nose is in the glass.
There is even more wonderful black fruit character coming through when you taste it. with layers of juicy black currants, huckleberries, crushed elderberry fruit and underlying oak references, coffee and lacy minerals. The midpalate is fine and balanced with lots of structure, that mint note and the tannins are kept in check through the finish, which is again rich in black fruits and even a hint of spiciness. A superb, lingering after-mouth with pure black currant juice lasts for well over 30 seconds. I really like this one. Watch how it opens after hours and hours and enjoy it with Christmas Dinner it is succulent and juicy and made for roast Turkey!
Bodegas Navajas Crianza
Logrogno, Rioja
1 x 75cl
The Cheeseboard Red
This smooth, plump Rioja wins pride of place as one of our club members' favourite reds vintage after vintage. We love its combination of vanilla-infused flavour from high-quality oak ageing and vibrant red-fruit notes. It will be wonderful with soft cheeses and blue cheeses too.
