Affordable Italy with Lea & Sandeman | Matthew Jukes, 06th July 2022
"Lea & Sandeman was forced to rearrange their 2022 Italian Tasting because of the recent, infernal rail strikes. So, when L&S booked it for this Monday, I expected fewer attendees and perhaps only a handful of Italians to be able to fly over to pour their wines. But, the rooms were buzzing, and the Italian attendance underlines L&S’s importance to the growing portfolio of first-class Italian estates. I tasted every wine, and I have pulled out a ‘First Fifteen’ collection (with two ‘subs’) for you today. Each bottle is drinking, delicious and also great value, staying under £20 throughout this collection. While some mighty Tuscan and Piedmont reds, among others, were indeed impressive, many needed more time, so this list includes only reds that are spot on to drink right now!"
