Winter 1874 Exhibition Taster Case

Fresh, taut and mineral wine from the cool Limarí region. Barrel fermented in mainly two and three year old barrels to contribute a hint of oak without masking its bright aromas and flavours. 2021 is an excellent vintage for coastal wines in Chile, and it will be enhanced by decanting.

‘Smart and great value,’ opined Joanna Locke MW about this attractive Haut-Médoc from Château Beaumont during our Wine Champions blind tastings this year. An inviting nose of rich berry fruit and spice gives way to notes of cedar and sandalwood. This classy claret is ready to drink now, but will also improve if you have the patience.

This Society exclusive from Australia comes from Mt Langi Ghiran's vineyard, which sits against a stunning backdrop of the Great Dividing Range. This will appeal most to lovers of big, generous red wines, punchy and fruit-laden, and packed with cassis and spice.

Elegant, mineral, citrusy and crisp New Zealand sauvignon which is a nod in style to the classic sauvignons of France, rather than the more opulent Marlborough stereotype. This is pretty on the nose, with crisp apple and elderflower notes. The palate is focused, infinitely refreshing and shows bright lemon and gooseberry notes.

A smooth and exotic bottling from La Rioja Alta, full-bodied, round and concentrated with the spicy, oaky quality, from long ageing in American barrels, that fans of this traditional Spanish style adore.

Our latest vintage from chenin aficionado Chris Alheit, made from offcuts from his Alheit Vineyards range, part barrel-fermented and matured a little longer on the fine lees in 2021, bringing extra breadth and some toasty richness.
