Tasted at L&S Rhône Tasting - 20/09/2022
Wild strawberry and raspberry to the fore, fairly full and nicely rounded. The acidity is well balanced with a gentle mineral line, finishing dry and sav...(read more)

The 2021 Le Paglie has a richer, weightier nose than the last release, but that breadth is well tempered with a good line acidity too. On the palate there is a good weight of fruit, nothing too heavy though. Fine, hefty...(read more)

A lightish, juicy Syrah in the aromatic Northern Rhône style which captures the peppery precision of Syrah from the north.

A bright aromatic white Port - lifted floral nuanced bouquet, and a Goldilocks palate that's just sweet enough, just fresh enough with orange citrus notes on the finish. A delight before or after dinner.

The starting point for the Bott reds, First Flight Syrah in 2021 is an absolute delight, bristling with bright red fruits, soft and very approachable, redcurrant and violets flow nicely with a juicy acidity, very good in...(read more)

The 2020 Pinot Noir Home is a fluid, expansive style, that focuses on its supple texture. It blossoms on the palate, no doubt helped by its sedimentary clay soils. Both the acidity and its slippery clay-like tannic textu...(read more)

A single parcel at 620 metres supplies the grapes for Roberto Oliván's slightly funky, left-field blend of Tempranillo with 20% Garnacha, Viura and Malvasía. Firm, sappy and spicy, this was entirely ferment...(read more)
