Welcome to our new case series - Good, Better, Next.
With this case we'll be taking a look one of our best selling wines (that you already know is good) and answering the question: what should I drink if I like this, but want something better? And what should I try next?
Here we're giving Baglio U... Passimiento the Good, Better, Next treatment.
"The Baglio U... Passimiento is an indie wineshop classic. Our aim with these cases is to deliver the wine you love alongside carefully selected companions to further your appreciation of it."
Good: Baglio Gibelina, U... Passimiento 2020
Gorgeous red that quickly wins over everyone who tries it. Bright intense red fruit on the nose displaying lots of sweet cherry and berry fruit. The palate is warm and full-bodied with harmonious acidity and smooth and elegant tannins. The grapes for this wines were dried on the vines to concentrate their flavours. It's the secret to the satisfyingly sweet and expressive fruit.
Better: Lirica, Primitivo di Manduria 2019
This wine is also from the south of Italy uses the Primitivo grape. This has lots of the same sweet dark fruit character as the Baglio. You get a pure nose of ripe dark fruits, cherry, plum and sweet spices like ginger and aniseed supported with discreet oak. The palate is round and textured with a well-balanced freshness, ending with a long and broad spicy finish. Really satisfying and moreish.
Next: Avalon, Zinfandel 2019
This is a direct move on from the Primitivo as it's actually the same grape variety. Again you'll be greeted by plenty of dark berry and spicy notes entice the nose, while sweet ripe plum, blackberry and a touch of blueberry flavours entertain the taste buds. Juicy and structured, Avalon Zinfandel is well-balanced and has a long, velvety finish
