Winemaker Description 

A classic Felton Road nose of dark blossoms: rose and violet with a compote of dark fruits. The mid-palate is just screaming Felton Road. Black cherries and cream on the nose introduced cherry crumble on the palate with baked spices. Very harmonious for a wine so young, but a brooding undertow reveals the intrinsic power of the wine. Four Bannockburn vineyards seamlessly integrating to provide many layers and textures.

Expert Reviews - Vintage 2021 

James Suckling 93 Points | Very attractive hibiscus with sliced strawberries and orange peel aromas that follow through to a medium body with very fine tannins and a fresh and clean wine. Tangy and succulent fruit. From biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification. Drink or hold. Screw cap. (2021). 

Jancis Robinson 16.5/20 Points |  Earthy and interesting on the nose. Already open and sweet but with good structure. Great for current drinking, with real interest and freshness. At the moment I prefer this to Block 3. (2021). 

Vinous 91 Points |  The 2021 Pinot Noir Bannockburn offers fine tension and sinew. I rather like it for being understated and having a corset of acidity and tannic tension around it. Sour red cherry, damson, wild herbs, a twist of nutmeg and it's all rather pleasing. Long, scented and excellent value with praiseworthy tannin quality. (2021). 

Decanter 92 Points | A hint of smokiness and toast appears first, still with the echo of slight reduction. The fine web of tannins on the palate holds oak as well as surprisingly dark fruit. Very juicy, fruity and bold, this is Felton Road's estate Pinot Noir, with just 25% new oak. Drinking 2022 - 2032  (2021). 

Winemaker Description 

The Antique Amontillado comes from a very old Fino (8 yrs old) which is refortified from 15.5% to 18.0% ABV and introduced into a solera of Amontillado where it spends a further 12 years.

Light ambar color. Exceptionally aromatic, completely dry and long aftertaste. 

Expert Reviews

92 Points Robert Parker | The NV Antique Amontillado is amber-colored and has a subtle nose of tobacco, some iodine, pollen, beeswax and hazelnuts. The medium- to full-bodied palate shows lots of concentration and acidity, with a very intense finish. 4,000 bottles are produced yearly.

91 Points Wine Spectator | A dry, nervy style, offering balsam wood, clove, dried orange peel and Brazil nut notes that weave together through the lacy finish. Shows range, but stays delicate in feel overall.

Producer Description 

Antique Palo Cortado (20%, Bodegas Rey Fernando de Castilla) Nose: highly aromatic and very elegant, with orange marmalade and bright hints of lime juice. Some roasted almonds and hazelnuts. Marzipan and caramel.

It also shows a delicately exotic spicy side, with rose pepper, aniseed and hints of incense. Soft coastal notes as well. Mouth: full flavoured, very balanced. Not too dry actually, but with a nice salty tang and good acidity.

Burnt toast and hints of dried figs. Walnuts and hazelnuts. Hints of eucalyptus. Ponzu and citrus, a little juniper. Some waxy / resinous notes too. Long finish.

Producer Description 

There’s an entire botanical universe of aroma happening here including sassafras, root beer, sage, rosemary, basil, parsley, white pepper. Taste-wise, the attributes appreciated in the bouquet are all present and accounted for the flavor, which is crisp, incredibly bitter, yet stunning in its earthy, woodsy elegance.

A first sip to taste the bitter notes of Colombo, Aloe, and the unmistakable tang of Gentian. A second small sip will reveal the spicy notes of Zedoary and the full-bodied flavor of Chamomile. With the final sip, the liqueur unveils its full repertoire of flavors: the overall effect is bitter, but a delicately spicy aftertaste lingers—the flavor of Myrrh.

Fernet-Branca is the world’s leading Italian amaro with a uniquely bitter herbal flavor profile. The distinctly bitter taste is beloved by bartenders worldwide, earning Fernet Branca the nickname ‘the bartender’s handshake.’

Today, only one person in the world knows the secretly guarded recipe. The complex bitter profile makes Fernet-Branca the perfect bitter herbal modifier for any cocktail.

Fernet-Branca is versatile and can be enjoyed in numerous ways. For a straightforward experience, try it neat in a shot glass accompanied by your favorite beer. Alternatively, you can savor it on the rocks, blended with ice and soda, mixed with tonic water, or paired with ginger ale. Additionally, it serves as an excellent ingredient in a wide variety of cocktails. Producer Description.

Expert Reviews 

"I’m not sure any country drinks more sparkling wine than Italy. Ferrari’s wines, from the Trentino-Alto Adige region of Italy, are generally superb. This entry-level bottle, made entirely from chardonnay, is sleek and graceful, impeccably balanced and a great value." - Eric Asimov’s New York Times Article Dec. 21, 2023

Monica Larner writes:  An Italian classic and a terrific value, the Ferrari NV Trento Brut is all Chardonnay that opens to crystalline luminosity and brilliance. The bouquet is straightforward and confident, delivering a clear and precise message of good cheer and easy-drinking appeal. There are notes of citrus, white peach, breakfast pastry and drying notes of crushed mineral. This is the quintessential Italian aperitivo wine.  -  Robert Parker Wine Advocate 91

Expert Review. -Vintage 2022

James Suckling 90 Points | This is aromatic with crunchy gooseberries, lemon peel, garden herbs and white flowers. Medium-bodied with a zesty, slightly phenolic character and crisp, lemony acidity. Flavorful finish.

Winemaker Description 

This wine opens with enticing aromas of pineapple, mango, peach, lemon grass, and lychee. The palate offers ripe fruit and crisp citrus flavors of yellow peach, apricot, pear, lime zest, and lemon cream. The Fumé Blanc has bright acidity and crisp freshness from the cool, stainless steel tank fermentation, while the subtle oak character from neutral French oak barrels adds body, complexity, and depth.

Fumé Blanc pairs well with simple seafood and poultry dishes, and also holds up nicely with veal and pork. This wine has lively flavors that go well with spicy and ethnic cuisines such as Japanese, Vietnamese, Thai, Chinese, Korean, Mexican, and Southwestern dishes.

Winemaker Description

This is a medium-bodied Merlot, displaying aromas of English toffee, vanilla, star anise, Santa Rosa plum, and leather.The palate is velvety smooth with notes of ripe plum, dried raspberry, nougat, and mocha on the finish.

The fruit forward, easy-drinking qualities of this Merlot make it the perfect wine to pair with any red meat course, Italian entrées and fragrantly-spiced roasted or grilled poultry dishes. 

Expert Review

91 Points Wine Enthusiast | Aromas of red cherries, black currants and cinnamon offer plenty to like in this velvety wine, while cocoa and vanilla join in on the palate, framed by moderate tannins. The wine is full in body, rich in oak and fruit flavors.

Expert Review - Vintage 2023 

James Suckling 92 Points | A bright and crisp white with sliced lemon, lime and hints of grass on the nose and palate. Flowers too. Medium-bodied, fresh and vivid. Hints of green papaya. Firm phenolics frame it. Drink now. 

Winemaker Description 

Made with Ruché grapes sourced from vineyards with different characteristics, Clasic stands out for its elegance and traditional style that ties it to this winemaking area. His high quality is ensured through careful management of the vines and low yields per hectare. 

The wine’s elegance and complexity is apparent through its luminous ruby colour and fascinating olfactory experience.

Deep, intense aromas of rose petals intertwine with flavors of cherry jam and forest fruits, followed by spicy notes of pepper to finish. The wine shows vibrant acidity blending perfectly with gentle tones of oak, making it an ideal accompaniment to traditional Piedmontese first courses.

Expert Reviews - Vintage 2022 

Eric Guido writes:  The 2022 Grillo Timpa lifts from the glass with a minty freshness, blending sweet green melon with candied lime suggestions. It's soft and enveloping, with brisk acidity ushering in citrus-tinged orchard fruits and saline minerals that add a crunchy sensation. The 2022 finishes perfumed and wickedly fresh. The mouth is left watering as barely-ripe kiwi hints fade.  - Vinous 90

Monica Larner writes:  The organic Feudo Montoni 2021 Sicilia Grillo Timpa has a pretty bouquet that is woven tight with summer peach, pear and honey. This Grillo offers a slightly waxy or oily texture with subtle mineral tones and fresh acidity.  - Robert Parker Wine Advocate 90

Clive Pursehouse writes:  Timpa, meaning steep slope, and the vines are located on 60% slopes, with sandy soils mixed with stone grown organically near Agrigento in central Sicily. Aromas of almond skin, white flowers, and citrus peel lead to notes of savoury herb and stony minerality. The palate is classically Grillo—bright notes of grapefruit, wet slate, a dash of herbs and a zest acid-driven finish.  - Decanter 90

Alison Napjus writes:  A zesty white, with vibrant acidity buoying an exuberant range of tangerine, kiwi fruit, pink grapefruit granita and lime blossom notes. Sleek and well-knit, with spice and mineral accents on the finish. Drink now.  - Wine Spectator 90

Winemaker Description

Winemaker Description 

A blend of 80% Bical and 20% Arinto grown in calcareous clay soils. 10% of the juice ferments in 500L casks; the other 90% is fermented in tank.

Opens with aromas of lemon, white flowers, and nuts. Complex with notes of citrus, balanced by nutty flavors and a lovely minerality in the dry finish.

All you need is vodka ( available from www.67wine.com) and a good brunch drink just turned into a great one!

Dirty, dirtier, dirtiest.  Beyond that when it comes to martinis is Filthy.

Our Professional Review

Oscar Garcia Moncada | Miguel Angel de Gregorio is a master at crafting wines of great balance and finesse while showcasing the terroir of Briones, Rioja. Nose of dark plums,  blackberry and raspberry. Medium-bodied with good tannic structure and great mouth-feel. Ready to drink.

Winemaker Description

Intense cherry color with purple hints. On the nose, fruit sensations (blackberries, blueberries, black fruits) dominate the perfectly integrated tones conveyed by aging in wood barrels that provide sensations of cedar and tobacco.

It is serious and lively on the mouth with power and a great balance; broad and flavorsome combining fruity freshness and the elegant structure of a wine that is suitable for aging. 

Winemaker Description

An intense red-purple colour. Potent and elegant on the nose with a great complexity of aromas (jams, minerals, menthol, spices, wild herbs, toffee and cacao).

Great harmony in the mouth with very marked sweet tannins, very complex and full of flavours of black fruits, raisins, liquorice, coffee, ink and aromatic herbs. Persistent lingering finish. Excellent wine for aging.

Expert Reviews

Vinous Josh Raynolds 92+ Points | Dark purple. Complex, highly perfumed bouquet of red berries, cherry pit, incense and dried flowers. Spicy raspberry and cherry flavors show a refreshingly bitter quality and are given depth by a note of licorice. Packs a serious punch but there's a surprisingly lithe quality to this wine too. The finish clings with impressive tenacity and repeats the cherry and floral notes. I'd let this wine rest for at least another three years or so. By the way, the 2007 Calvario has put on weight in the last year but also possesses superb energy; I rated it 94 in August. - Vinous 92+

Wine Advocate Neal Martin writes 90 Points | The 2008 Calvario is a blend of 90% Tempranillo, 9% Garnacha and 2% Graciano aged for 18 months in new French Allier oak. The nose offers broody blackberry and briary at first, leisurely unwinding to reveal black olive and violet aromas, with the oak well-knitted into the fruit profile. The palate is medium-bodied with fine, sturdy tannins complemented by the fleshy black fruit laced with just a pinch of white pepper towards the much more elegant finish. It deserves a couple of years in bottle. (2008).

Decanter Sarah Jane Evans MW writes 93 Points |  A wine that smells of luxury and plenty of attention, showing the right balance between oak and fruit and a balancing acidity; expressive and charming, solidly built. Impressive, with tightly crafted tannins, and it should improve over time. Drinking 2019 -2023.

Expert Review - Vintage 2020 

Jesica Vargas of the Wine Enthusiast writes 89 Points | This wine has an aromatic nose of strawberry and light notes of chocolate. Savory red- and black-fruit flavors are framed by slightly unripe tannins leading to a long finish.

Winemaker Description 

The concentration of this Malbec is made evident by its purple color and intense violet hues. A wine of enticing aromatic intensity, with aromas of vanilla and white chocolate, notes of licorice and black fruits that contribute to its elegant complexity. The mouthfeel shows some sweetness, excellent volume, well-integrated wood and an interesting complexity.

Expert Review - Vintage 2022

James Suckling 91 Points | A deeply colored malbec with dark plums, cherry blossom, lavender and pink peppercorns on the nose. Creamy and fruit-forward with sweet berry and floral notes, wrapped up in ripe tannins and a full body. Vegan.

Winemaker Description 

The intense violet color makes it a worthy representative of the wines from Los Chacayes. A wine of distinct aromatic complexity, with outstanding notes of red fruits, floral aromas of violets, vanilla and cigar. The mouth confirms the presence of black fruits like blackberries and spices. The medium structure and silky tannins are perfectly balanced with the delicious natural acidity, leading to a prolonged finish.

Winemaker Description

Bright red cherry in color with pronounced aromas of cassis and ripe red fruit. On the palate, this wine is clean, complex and elegant. Well-balanced with vibrant acidity, the 2018 Crianza from Finca Nueva contains perfectly integrated tannins and an agreeable finish. 

Expert Review

James Suckling 89 Points | Plums, dried herbs, blueberries and cassis blossom. Medium body with fine tannins. It has a blueberry-like character on the palate with some tartness in the short finish. (2019).
