Chile

Easy drinking, soft and plummy merlot with bags of damson fruit and a lovely bramble quality.

This is classic Chilean Carmenere - firm and grippy, with meaty spice flavours and hints of chocolate.

Fantastic value Pinot with a surprising amount of earthiness at this price but enough fruit and acidity for easy drinking and food-matching - try wth swordfish or risotto.

Superb single vineyard wine with blueberry and raspberry aromas, cloves and a rounded palate.

The very best organically-grown grapes of the vintage are selected for this wine. The wine is a Rhone style blend (though no Grenache in this one) which is rich yet well-structured with lots of blackberry compote notes.

Award winning version of Chile's signature grape, and it's on soaring form at the moment. A real jack-of-all-trades; this has a lovely velvet texture and ample sweet spices.

The position of these grapes in the vineyard allow a long ripening period, adding elegance to this plummy, richly fruited wine.

This is a rich, rounded wine with great tannic balance - it's actually supported by touches of Cabernet, Merlot and Malbec. A total steal.

Another very popular Carmenere here - this is concentrated and spicy, and almost bang-on a tenner, making it perfect for Fridays or if you fancy treating yourself on a Tuesday!

One of the finest Pinot Noirs you can get for around ten pounds, this has a great amount of body and fruit to it. The nuances of vanilla and savoury, earthy flavours as well as the well-balanced acidity make it perfect for tagliatelle covered in truffle oil and fresh Parmesan.

Now tellingly labelled 'Syrah' hinting at a more European influence, this is another wonderful wine from Vina Tabali, with delicate black cherry and meaty aromas. This was labelled 'Best in Show' at the most recent Wines of Chile Awards, very classy...
