Quinta da Alorna ‘Lutra’ Tinto, Tejo 2024
A supple and generous red hailing from the Tejo region of central Portugal, blending indigenous Portuguese grape varieties touriga nacional, castelão, and trincadeira, and showcasing a medium-bodied profile with soft tannins and vibrant red-berry notes, making it approachable and enjoyable for anyday drinking. It offers enticing ripe fruit characteristics and balanced freshness and is a top pick for accessibility and great value for drinking with or without food. Tejo, an area known for its rich winemaking heritage blending tradition with modern techniques, takes its name from the Tagus River that flows through it and, eventually, Lisbon, and Quinta da Alorna sits on its southern bank. The winery is raising awareness of one of the rivers inhabitants, the endangered lutra (European Otter), hence the label here. Needless to say, the wine is 'otterly' delicious.
Le Bosc Grenache Blanc, Pays d'Oc 2025
Soft, round and very easy on the palate, this is a full-flavoured Mediterranean white from the south of France. Herby, citrusy and mouth-watering.
Kurlong Crush Murray Darling Vermentino 2025
Since the 1930s and the harnessing of the Murray River’s waters, the Murray Darling region has been one of Australia’s great fruit bowls, famed for citrus, peaches, pears and almonds. This vibrant vermentino feels born of that landscape. Originally from the Mediterranean coastlines of southern France and northern Italy, it naturally leans towards salty citrus, pear and almond flavours and here takes on an especially juicy, sunshine-filled character. Lime, lemon and delicate white peach notes lead to a crisp, mouthwatering palate with a refreshing saline twist. An effortlessly drinkable white that’s perfect with seafood, lemony roast chicken or simply sipped in the sunshine. Please check out the Press Reviews section below for enthusiastic comments about this wine from wine writers Jancis Robinson MW and Peter Judge.
Un Amour de Cinsault, Chateau Beaubois 2025
From an estate in the Costières de Nîmes, in the southern Rhône, the Boyer family have produced a lively and easy to drink red that is fresh and immediately appealing. Light bodied, this will be delightful served slightly chilled. With its bright red cherries, strawberries and raspberry notes and fine tannin grip, this will pair perfectly with tomato-based dishes.
Alsace, Boeckel 2025
This sylvaner and pinot blanc Alsace blend is made by a family estate in the small town of Mittelbergheim. Having grown vines since the 1800s, this family understands their terroir and the 25 hectares that they cultivate. This wine is the perfect introduction to the estate with its bone dry palate and fresh, crisp profile. Expect lots of citrus and white peach with subtle hints of blossom. Perfect to drink without food, but would also pair beautifully with goats cheese or white fish.
Pacherenc du Vic-Bilh, Lou Blanc 2022
A full-flavoured, rich dry white from southwest France displaying notes of lemon, honey and beeswax. Full-bodied but fresh, this is perfect with trout, rillettes and most spicy food.
