Merlot

Soft, plummy and eminently drinkable this possesses harmonious fruit flavours and just a touch of oak flavour on the silky finish.

This will be perfect with nice pink roast lamb.

Like stilton and stout, Claret can take a bit of getting used to, but once you have your Bordeaux epiphany you’ll never look back. The perfect wine for Sunday lunch.

Offers good concentration and depth, a soft and plummy texture, and hints of vanilla and spice. Best enjoyed with flame grilled lamb kebabs, goose or venison.

A nose of fruitcake, spice and ripe, plummy fruit. Soft and rich on the palate, with blackcurrants, plum, and smoky cedarwood. Try with roast beef or goose.

Plush red and black fruit flavours of strawberry, cherry and blackberry form the backbone, overlaid with notes of vanilla and green tobacco leaf. Soft, ripe tannins provide a great sense of volume.
