Domaine Valmoissine Pinot Noir Louis Latour 2024
Louis Latour Domaine Valmoissine Pinot Noir is a refined and expressive red from the Coteaux du Verdon in Aups, Provence a surprising and rewarding source for Pinot Noir, and one that Louis Latour has been quietly perfecting for years. Grown on clay and limestone soils at 500 metres altitude, with cool nights preserving freshness and southern exposure ensuring ripeness, this is a Pinot Noir of genuine elegance and terroir character. Why You'll Love It Louis Latour is one of Burgundy's most celebrated négociants, and their decision to plant Pinot Noir in the hills of Provence was a bold one but the results speak for themselves. Valmoissine consistently delivers the variety's hallmark finesse and red fruit character, with a distinctly southern freshness that sets it apart from its Burgundian cousins. If you love Pinot Noir but want something a little different, this is the bottle to explore. Vineyard & Production The vineyard averages 15-year-old vines with modest yields of 35 hectolitres per hectare to preserve quality and concentration. Grapes are carefully selected at full maturity before traditional fermentation in open vats for gentle extraction of colour and aromatics. The wine is then aged for 10–12 months in stainless steel to maintain its freshness and vibrant fruit character. Tasting Notes Deep garnet-red in colour. A complex nose of blackcurrant and forest undergrowth. The palate is full-bodied, round, and well-structured — subtle notes of blackcurrant and raspberry, balanced tannins, and a fresh, persistent finish that reveals the wine's refinement and elegance. Perfect Pairings Versatile and food-friendly. Excellent with grilled red meats, duck breast, a variety of cheeses, and dishes incorporating red fruits. Equally at home at a casual dinner or a more refined occasion. The Blend Pinot Noir 100%
Larry Cherubino Pedestal Cabernet Sauvignon 2023
Larry Cherubino Pedestal Cabernet Sauvignon is a benchmark expression of Margaret River Cabernet, one of Australia's most celebrated wine regions and arguably the country's finest source for the variety. Crafted by Larry Cherubino, widely regarded as one of Western Australia's most talented and meticulous winemakers, Pedestal is the entry point into the Cherubino range and consistently over-delivers on quality, structure, and elegance for its price. Why You'll Love It Larry Cherubino has built his reputation on a singular commitment to terroir-driven winemaking across Western Australia's finest sub-regions. Margaret River's unique maritime climate, moderated by the Indian Ocean to the west and the Southern Ocean to the south, produces Cabernet Sauvignon of remarkable natural balance: ripe, structured, and fragrant, with the kind of cassis-driven fruit and fine-grained tannins that make it one of the world's great Cabernet regions. Pedestal captures all of that at an accessible price point. Vineyard & Production Sourced from carefully selected vineyards in Margaret River, Western Australia. Crafted with the precision and attention to detail that defines everything Larry Cherubino produces. Tasting Notes Classic Margaret River Cabernet, fragrant blackcurrant and cassis on the nose, with cedar, bay leaf, and a hint of dark chocolate. The palate is medium to full-bodied, with fine-grained tannins, vibrant acidity, and a long, elegant finish. Structured for the medium term but very approachable now. Perfect Pairings A natural partner for roast lamb, beef fillet, duck breast, and aged hard cheeses. Also excellent with slow-braised red meats and hearty pasta dishes.
