Bodegas La Horra Corimbo Red Wine
Bodegas La Horra is a modern, forward-thinking estate at the heart of Ribera del Duero , one of Spain's most celebrated red wine regions. Corimbo is their flagship expression, sourced from organically farmed vineyards in the villages of La Horra and Roa, with vines averaging around 20 years of age. It is a wine that captures the soul of the region with freshness, aromatic depth and genuine elegance. Why You'll Love It This is Ribera del Duero red wine at its most expressive and approachable. Corimbo strikes a beautiful balance between the power you expect from the region and a freshness that makes it genuinely versatile at the table. The organic farming brings a purity to the fruit, while 16 months in oak adds richness and spice without ever overwhelming the wine's natural character. Whether you're opening it tonight or cellaring it for a few years, Corimbo delivers. Vineyard and Production Grapes are hand-picked into 16kg crates and carefully sorted on arrival at the winery. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in a combination of wooden and stainless steel vats, with a maceration period of approximately 18 days to extract colour, structure and aromatic complexity. The wine is then aged for 16 months in a blend of 80% French oak and 20% American oak barrels, building texture and depth while preserving the vibrant fruit at its core. Tasting Notes Deep picota cherry in colour with a dark red rim. The nose is expressive and inviting, with red and black fruits, particularly cherry and blackberry, alongside mineral notes, aromatic herbs and fine spice. Subtle hints of wet earth, pine forest and fresh pistachio add intrigue. On the palate, broad and voluminous, with fine, polished tannins, red fruit flavours, delicate oak and a long, harmonious finish with a lingering freshness.

Von Siebenthal Carabantes Syrah 2022
Von Siebenthal Carabantes Syrah is a premium Chilean red wine crafted from 85% Syrah and 15% Cabernet Sauvignon. Hailing from the Aconcagua Valley, it reflects the unique terroir of this region, where cool coastal breezes meet the warmth of the Andes foothills. The vineyard’s location on Panquehue’s terraces provides excellent drainage and optimal sun exposure, allowing the grapes to ripen evenly while retaining vibrant acidity. Winemaking The grapes are hand-harvested and undergo fermentation and maceration in stainless steel tanks for approximately 15–20 days at controlled temperatures between 20° and 25°C. After fermentation, the wine is aged in oak barrels for 18 months, enhancing its structure and complexity while preserving the purity of the fruit. This careful balance of oak and varietal character creates a wine that is both elegant and expressive. Tasting Notes Von Siebenthal Carabantes Syrah has a deep ruby colour with a purple rim. The nose is intense and complex, revealing aromas of violet, blueberry, blackberry, rosemary, cracked pepper, dark chocolate, cedar, and a subtle balsamic lift. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied yet poised, with ripe black and blue fruits wrapped in fine, velvety tannins and balanced by refreshing acidity. The oak is seamlessly integrated, leading to a long, precise finish with pepper-spiced nuances. Food Pairing This wine pairs beautifully with herb-crusted lamb, beef short ribs with a soy-black pepper glaze, duck breast with blackberry jus, or aged cheeses such as Manchego. It is a wine that rewards careful pairing, enhancing the flavours of rich, savoury dishes. Serving Temperature Best served at 16–18°C to fully appreciate its aromatic complexity and structured palate. Grape Composition 85% Syrah and 15% Cabernet Sauvignon The name "Carabantes" honours Francisco de Carabantes, a 16th-century Spanish friar credited with introducing Vitis vinifera to Chile, reflecting the wine’s blend of heritage and modern winemaking pre
