The Tenute Tomasella Cabernet Franc offers a delightful exploration of the grape varietal's potential in Friuli Grave, Italy. This meticulously crafted wine showcases the region's unique terroir, resulting in a vibrant and expressive Cabernet Franc.
Produced by one of the worlds oldest wineries, this wine made by monks is extremely drinkable! Light, refreshing with Blossom, Grape and slight honey balanced by a lively acidity. Omnes Dies is Latin for all day and we have to agree!
Fresh apricot in hue, delightfully almost equally furry on the palate. It?s at once marmalade and marble being all rich, sinewy, aromatic, and textural. Finely grained for a skin-contact wine, it should not be served too cold.
Lovely depth of colour, being an opaque, bloody red. The nose climbs from the glass with classic Barossa ferrous tones and summer pudding notes. The palate is rich yet alive, with a breadth of cassis, cinnamon, allspice and leather. It's a really rewarding glass of top Barossa Valley joy.
Summer pudding reaches from the glass, there is an abundance of blackberry and cassis fruit with a naughty creaminess of oak that marries on the palate for a bold pastiche of old vine Barossa Cabernet. It's a big glass of juicy theatre.
Heady aromas of jaffa and orange blossom over deeper concentrated blackcurrant, cola, anise and blackberry. Lifted hints of juniper and crushed herb build as the wine breathes. Black-fruits dominate the palate with lashings of inky dense, muscular blackcurrant and black-cherry, over a liquorice-like sweetness balancing rich dark chocolate dryness and a black-olivine savouriness. This foundation is firmly bonded and taut, lasting, with all parts contributing an iron-clad assertion. Exotic expression with luxuriant waves of fine oak delivering fume` spices and subtle roast-coffee-like extract.
Bright aromas of bay leaf, citrus zest, over a chalky minerality. On the palate the chalky seam follows with elegant citrus notes, lime leaf and finishes with tangy joy.
Luscious, vibrant nose of black cherry and ripe red fruits like Santa Rosa plums, with background notes of orange peel and clove. The firm, rich tannins promise a long life; this wine will continue to develop for another 10-15 years
Dark purple colour wine. Nose is rich and very honest to the variety, showing blackcurrant, sweet spices and tobacco. Soft touches of spicy anise and paprika add complexity. The medium bodied palate is generous with a supple texture and sweet tannins that are smooth and concentrated, allowing a wine with persistency and great length.
Fresh almost tropical aromas then stone fruit and citrus on the palate with a creamy texture, mineral notes, vibrant acidity and classic saline characters. Quite ripe and complex in style but with fresh balancing acidity and a classic saline character. This is an absolute benchmark Albariño from one of the top producers - the '23 vintage being oe of the best in recent memory, according to winemaker Diego Ríos.
A very delicate pale rosé colour. The wine has fresh fruit aromas of strawberries and raspberries with citrus hints. A crisp, well-balanced wine, the perfect rosé to drink in the sunshine and delicious with char-grilled fish or tuna empanadas.
Ripe dark fruit aromas with a hint of spice. The wine has rich bramble fruit with notes of blackcurrant pastille, and is finely structured with well-integrated French oak, fine tannins, a light savoury note and a twist of liquorice on the finish.
