Description
Light red wines can be enjoyed in the Summer – sometimes chilled a little.
This selection is great for red wine lovers who want a refreshing glass in the Summer. The case contains 2 bottles of each of the following:
Pedra Calvado Reserva Douro (Portugal): On the nose this wine’s aroma is complex highlighting the ripe berries, with notes of vanilla and spices. A very firm, dense, voluminous, flavour with light wood tannins. The finish is smooth and long, fresh and harmonious. Grape varietals are typically Portuguese: Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, Red Cão Ideal with fine meats, game and intense cheeses, both soft and cured. Delicious.
Petit Balthazar Merlot (France): A rich ripe nose of blueberries, plums and liquorice. Rounded medium body with a lingering fruity finish. The prodcuer, Pierrick, sources grapes from selected growers in the Languedoc and applies scientific techniques along with winemaking mastery to produce wines in his own individual style. Drink on its own or with a barbecue, pizza, pasta and cheeses.
Liso Veinte Tempranillo (Spain): Medium bodied with notes of dill, mushroom and red fruits. There is cranberry, raspberry and redcurrant on the palate with a firm tannin finish.
Enjoy with cottage pie or pie and mash or a delicious BBQ lamb rack!
