Red Wine

The classic light juicy grape of Piedmont. Clear and fragrant with decent grip, this is perfect for chilled sipping (the wine not you), cured meats, cold cuts, and especially tomato sauces which can be so tricky with richer tannic reds. Like all their range this shouts Piedmont. Exceptionally good value.

La Combe Blanche is a small estate located in the heart of the Cru La Livinière, the first vintage of Languedoc. The vines spread over the small terroir of the hamlet of Calamiac are composed of a multitude of grape varieties, The wine is dark and brilliant, with a deep cherry red colour and brightness. Its intense and slightly wild nose reminds of black fruits, violet, with a smoky nuance. Fresh and delicious, the palate shows a tasty tannin and a beautiful aromatic length.

Guy Vanlanker's best cuvée (and still under £20 - one of the best wines in the Languedoc!) from low yielding Syrah and Grenache vines. 24 months in old oak gives the wine time to shed its tannic cloak. This is a wine of power, elegance and depth, a real Grand Cru of the region.

Tamlyn Currin, jancisrobinson.com: "Single vineyard. 60% Mourvèdre (20 years old), 40% Grenache (30 years old) on lots of pudding stone, clay, sand and limestone tuffeau. When it rains, the water percolates very deep through the stones. Their youngest red vines. Hand-picked; whole-bunch, spontaneous fermentation; minimal cap work; very gently pressed. This is the only cuvée where they don’t blend the varieties in the same tank – because the Mourvèdre ripens so much later than the Grenache. 12 months in old oak barrels of 600, 500 and 400 litres. Pale, see-through ruby. Smells like violet-scented talc. Superb, translucent, floral, night jasmine, daphne blossom. The fruit is like paper-thin, ruby-stained glass. I have it in my mouth and I don’t want to swallow, in case I break it. Wild damsons, their sweet intensity, the eye-widening pop of their acidity, their woodsy hedgerow-stemminess, their thin-skinned-but-defiant tannins. Dill. Caraway fronds. Startling elegance – have I ever tasted Mourvèdre this diaphanous? I’m pretty sure not. The finish drifts slowly away, like clouds. " (TC) 13.5%

Natural wine from Simon Coulshaw: no cultured yeast, enzymes, chemical tannins or fining product. 90% old-vine Cinsault, 10% Syrah. I was instructed to chill this a bit before tasting. It was in the fridge for about 25 minutes and then left out for 10 minutes before tasting. Fresh red-berried nose. Hurrah! Here is another Languedoc producer who 'gets' Cinsault. Perky, bright, raspberries and with that lovely telltale Cinsault salty-sweet tang that always reminds me of the best prosciutto or jamon. A bit of white pepper and ground cumin tangled into feather-light sinews of tannin. This is absolutely YUM. Tapas/aperitivo wine, without a doubt. I could drink this all summer long. GV (TC) 17/20
