Domaine Philippe Livera Gevrey-Chambertin En Champs
£70.00
This 8.5 hectare domaine was founded in 1920 by the great grandfather of Damien Livera, who currently runs the property. Prior to Damien taking over in 2007, the grapes (from old vines planted in the 50s and 60s) were sold to the large Beaune negociants. However, since 2007, there has been a total regeneration of the domaine – low yields, a strict form of lutte raisonée, no herbicides, manual working of the soils and a total upgrading of the vineyards and a new winery – and a resultant quantum leap in quality.
Very thin topsoils, straight into limestone bedrock gives great tension and minerality. 50% of the vines were planted in 1950 and 50% in 1970. 40% new oak, meaty and plush with flavours of black fruits and licorice.
Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe Châteauneuf-du-Pape
£74.00
This is an outstanding wine and a true classic. Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe has been run by the Brunier family since 1891. The estate’s vineyards are situated on the famous “Plateau de la Crau”, the stony terrace where there is nothing but “galets roulés”, or rounded stones, as far as the eye can see. This special terroir imparts a highly distinctive minerality to the wines. Vieux Télégraphe is made from predominantly three grape varieties, Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre plus Cinsault and Clairette.
The blending is done at the end of June after which the wine is matured in large foudres for 20 months. The red wines are bottled unfined and unfiltered and display tremendous concentration and intense flavours of dark cherry and “garrigue”. The best vintages will age for 20 years and more.
Barbeito Quatro Pipas Bastardo Special Reserva
£80.00
The next iteration in Ricardo’s quest to honour and resurrect the almost forgotten Bastardo variety. This wine is a blend of three separate base wines, from different vintages: 2007, 2009, and 2011. Each was made using varying winemaking methods, such as skin contact and volume of barrels for ageing. The age of the wines and the complexity of the resultant blend enabled this to be designated as a Reserva Especial wine.
A fresh bouquet with a hint of tobacco, wood (pine), dried figs, dates and walnuts. This wine reveals much of its character on the palate, where sweetness, acidity and a light spiciness blend in harmony, leading to a polished, long and silky finish.
