Winter 1874 Wine Explorers' What to Drink Case
Wines included
Val de Loire Malbec, Domaine des Rochelles, J. Lebreton 2020
A grape associated more with Argentina these days than with its origins in France, malbec is often known as côt in the Loire valley. Jean-Hubert Lebreton’s refreshingly modern take on it is certified organic, light, fragrant and delicious.
The Winery of Good Hope Full Berry Fermentation Pinotage, Coastal 2021
Modern South African pinotage in a refreshingly lighter style, made a bit like a Beaujolais to ensure bright juicy fruit to complement the spicier side of the grape's origins; ideal served on the cooler side.
Domäne Wachau 'Gneis + Löss' Grüner Veltliner 2021
Light, crisp and fresh grüner veltliner from the outstanding Wachau co-operative. Seldom sold outside of Austria, this wine is a delicious taste of the region, with succulent lemon, spritzy peach and a twist of spice. Light in alcohol but full of zest.
Saar Riesling Kabinett, von Hövel 2020
Fromm a region famed for some of the world's finest naturally low-alcohol wines and a top producer with excellent sites in Oberemmel and Wiltingen, this is light, beautifully balanced, and a perfect aperitif.
Domaine Tariquet L'Imprevu, Vin de France 2021
The innovative Grassa brothers have produced a low-alcohol wine from an original blend of local ugni blanc with riesling, which adds character. Light, citrusy and refreshing.
Örökség 'Heritage' Bikavér, Takler 2018
Light, fresh and fragrant bikavér (bika = bull, vér = blood) from the excellent Takler winery in Szekszárd. From mainly kékfrankos, this is brimming with aromas of redcurrants and spices and has a juicy, refreshing palate.
