Domaine Cheze 2003, Cuvee des Anges, Saint Joseph

A stunningly powerful Syrah (100%), from 50 year old vines producing only 5000 bottles. Aged 18 months in oak, unfiltered – super nose of ripe forest fruits black cherries, pepper cinnamon and liquorice, all found on palate with great length on the finish.

Sebiran 2006 Terraneo Macabeo

A creamy, rich, off-dry white, quite full in the mouth for a wine at this price level. Nice summer drinking.

Clos des Brusquieres Chateauneuf du Pape 2000

Yes, that rare thing in Ireland – a Chateauneuf that’s actually mature enough to drink! Wonderful soft, over ripe heady aromas, with sweet ripe strawberries, real power and great length, with good dry tannins on the finish. Concentrated, immense and rich!

Price: €32.95
