Wine Best Buys, Great Value, Affordable, Sale Wine

Aglianico del Vulture is one of Italy's least known fine red wines and as such can be a real bargain.

D'Angelo are a top producer and this is their "Riserva" meaning it must be at least five years old before release including at least two years ageing in wood.

This wine retails elsewhere for between £25 to £30 per bottle. Grab a bargain, very limited stock!

Ruby in colour (with big legs) but don’t let that fool you - this is a big wine! The nose is very “farmyard” reminding me of Philippe Virets wines. Intense powerful flavours, black fruits lifted by good acidity as these vines were grown at altitude. Soft with good mouthfeel finishing  dry on the very long finish. 

I love Aglianico which makes some delicious spicey wines. Here it is more powerful and a little drier similar in style to good Barolo.

This is a serious bargain for anybody who loves classic Italian reds.

This Reserve Cairanne Blanc is extremely limited having done so well at the Decanter World Wine Awards. We have just 120 bottles.

Pale gold in colour. Strong flavours on the palate of peach and a little citrus. Good full body giving a lovely mouthfeel. Well integrated acidity, with a long clean finish. This is very good wine, on a par with our fantastic Tampesta Albarin which is a favourite of ours. Highly recommended but be quick as this won't hang around.

This artisan Tampesta Albarin is from the DO Tierra de Leon in North Western Spain. It's a lovely full flavoured wine with body and good mouth feel, having been aged on the lees. Very fresh and natural on the long finish, made by expert Galician winemaker Luis Buitrón, vice-president of the Spanish Federation of Winemakers and president of the Association of Oenologists of Galicia.

This artisan Tampesta Golan is again Prieto Picudo, this time aged in oak for 26 months. It is delicious and natural. Although aged for 26 months in oak it isn't overpowering as some Reservas can be, it is far more balanced and elegant.

The wine is made by expert Galician winemaker Luis Buitrón, vice-president of the Spanish Federation of Winemakers and president of the Association of Oenologists of Galicia. Highly recommended.

This artisan Tampesta Prieto Picudo Roble is from the DO Tierra de Leon in North Western Spain. It is a beauty. Not big and powerful, more subtle, soft and smooth with great overall balance. We focus heavily on natural wines that are easy to drink, harmonising with the body and this is one of our best finds this year. The wine is made by expert Galician winemaker Luis Buitrón, vice-president of the Spanish Federation of Winemakers and president of the Association of Oenologists of Galicia. Highly recommended.

This Tampesta Rose from the DO Tierra de Leon in North Western Spain is a lovely soft and fruity natural Rose made by expert Galician winemaker Luis Buitrón, vice-president of the Spanish Federation of Winemakers and president of the Association of Oenologists of Galicia.

Fantastic once again! Pale gold with green highlights and some legs sticking to the glass. Pear aromas followed by delicious pear and guava on the palate. Great balance, good body and very smooth with natural acidity on the long finish cleansing the palate. This is superb wine for the money, very fresh and clean.

A lovely rose made from Tempranillo and Merlot. Fermented with the grapes natural yeasts without additives, then lightly fined with egg whites. It's very low in sulphites as Valtonar are ardent fans of making wines as naturally as possible.

Soft strawberry flavours with good body and a dry finish.

Don't be put off by the amateur photo - it isn't this dark in real life. It's a lovely wine, give it a go!

Bodegas de Galicia - Gold 2017, 91 Points by the Penin Guide

A true artisan Albarino from this tiny family winery. Very natural and pure. Delicate and elegant, yet quite full bodied. Highly recommended.

Rainbow's End is one of my favourite wineries. This time Anton has aged some of his excellent Chenin Blanc in wood for a few months.

Absolutely delicious! The wood has added some body and good mouthfeel. Ful of flavour yet still clean and fresh on the finish. This is excellent wine.

This is Anton's brand new Rose - please excuse the photo it isn't entirely accurate. This wine is a beautiful pale copper in colour, very similar in appearance and style to good Cotes du Provence - it is beautiful! Very low in sulphites too.

Badia di Morrona Bianco dei Poggi IGT Toscana is a blend of Vermentino, Trebbiano and Chardonnay, fermented in stainless steel for freshness.

The Martinez family began producing wines in the beautiful town of Laguardia back in the 16th century. Today they are still there making these handcrafted wines in tiny quantities. Their total production is just 40,000 bottles per year. They practice sustainable methods, farm biodynamically and always ferment the grapes with their own natural yeasts. They produce some delicious outstanding wines.

The grapes were all hand picked from forty year old vines. Very pale gold in colour. Hold your glass up to the light and you will see this wine has wonderful clarity. On the nose there's an array of citrus fruits and some delicate perfume. On the palate it has good weight with delicate elegant flavours. Fresh and complex, it very quickly grows on you! We loved it.
