Costers del Prior Priorat 2018
' Celler Morlanda is one of the pioneering wineries that's breathed new life into the Priorat area, located south-west of Catalonia, planting Garnacha and Carignan high up on rugged terraced vineyards. Winemaker Judit Llop works to protect the grapes from high temperatures in summer. The dry licorella soils give brooding, dense wines, which need to spend time in oak barrels to show their true character. Part of Ferrer Family Wines since 1997, Celler Morlanda now makes a boutique range of award-winning wines. 50% Carinena AKA Carignan, 50% Garnacha AKA Grenache/Garnatxa '
Torbreck Vintners, Woodcutter's Shiraz 2021
You’d imagine a high country Scottish woodcutter might like a fortifying red at the days end – something rich, warming, full bodied and affordable. This wine reflects the up and coming Shiraz vineyards of the Barossa, rather than the battle hardened old vines that make up the core of our other cuvées. But like all Torbreck wines, Woodcutter’s Shiraz receives the very best viticultural and winemaking treatment. Fruit is sourced from hand-harvested and hand-tended, low-yielding vines, then open fermented and gently basket pressed before ageing on fine lees for 12 months in large format seasoned barrels and foudres. Although this wine is constantly praised for its succulence and richness, there is also a complexity and texture which is rarely found at this price.
