Jean Michel Dupré Morgon Grand Cras 2022
A hugely exciting new range of Cru Beaujolais specially brought in to give us all a vinous Christmas treat, but don’t wait for Christmas.
Jean-Michel’s own notes suggest hints of Kirsch, licorice and spices and he recommends Lapin aux Pruneaux as a meal to accompany the wine. Just off to the butcher’s to get some rabbit!
The slight 12½ % alcohol belies the lovely deep, fleshy and peppery flavours. I get parma violets if you remember those? Smooth tannins and a nice grip.

“Zinfandel” Primitivo di Manduria from Felline
With the huge success of Fellone, I decided that Primitivo needed a closer inspection, so here’s one of four new ones, all from Felline down in the south of Italy.This one is a slight variation, being styled “Zinfandel Californiano”. That’s what they call it over there but is a strain of Primitivo all the same. Terroir is Mandurian black soil and the 15% wine was aged for six months in French and American oak.

Brunelli Passito ‘Resol’
The very finest and ripest bunches of Garganega grapes are selected, prior to undergoing four months of drying then two years of slow fermentation and careful maturation in small French oak barrels. Goes perfectly with strongly flavoured cheeses with honey, caramelized peaches or ice cream…..and yes, CHOCOLATE!
Resol is also delicious sipped on its own. Serve at 13°C

Laura Lardy Beaujolais Villages Red “Gourde a Gamay”
A hugely exciting new range of Cru Beaujolais specially brought in to give us all a vinous Christmas treat, but don’t wait for Christmas.
Unsurprisingly, considering Laura’s Fleurie, her “simple” Beaujolais Villages is a cut above the rest. If you remember the good old days of Beaujolais Nouveau when we looked forward to the 14th November and that deliciously grapey, Ribena-coloured youthful wine hit the shelves, then this is like that but soooo much better and with an extra dimension of structure to make it a joy to drink on its own but also with the meal.

“The Inspector General” from The Treaty Port Estate China
From a vineyard established in 2005 on the Shandong peninsula by Chris Ruffle comes this classic Bordeaux blend, aged in french oak barrels and displaying ripe, dark fruits and a hint of vanilla oak. No surprise that Chateau Lafite chose to make their first Chinese wine, Long Dai 2017, from neigbouring fields! Chris’s vines are older, of course, and 2014 was an excellent vintage. This is a limited release of 5000 bottles.

Muscat de Beaumes de Venise
A new find from a stylish property in the Rhone Valley. This is a deliciously grapey, muscatty, warming pud wine. Perfect for having around at Christmas, but personally,I’d have a bottle permanently in the fridge all year round.

Rioja Martinez Alesanco “Eco” Organic
So much to say! Tim Atkin gives it 90/100. “The 2016 vintage marks the second coupage, or blending, of this organic Tempranillo with 14% Garnacha Tinta, sourced from two plots facing each other at 650 meters in the small village of Badarán. Predominantly fruit with a touch of wood. It is refreshing, juicy, with fine tannins and red and black fruits.”
It’s an oaky Crianza, needs no more aging.
