Showdown Man with an Axe Cabernet Sauvignon 2023
A plush and approachable Californian Cabernet, full of ripe blackcurrant and wild berry fruit, with a touch of sweet oak and soft, juicy tannins. Meet the producer Boutinot has been working with growers across California for decades, refining its portfolio vintage by vintage to deliver wines that balance ripe fruit, structure, and accessibility. Production Sourced from vineyards in Northern California’s Central Valley, around Lodi and Manteca, where the San Joaquin and Sacramento river deltas provide cooling breezes that preserve freshness in the fruit. Cabernet blocks are vinified separately and blended for balance, with 6 months ageing in oak to provide a broad frame and subtle chocolate notes. Tasting notes Ripe blackcurrant, wild berries, and sweet vanilla oak on the nose. The palate is rich with cassis and black cherry, soft, juicy tannins, and a long, plump finish. American oak adds gentle chocolate edges. Food match Perfect with a cheeseburger or any hearty, casual fare. Grape Cabernet Sauvignon 100%
Torres Magnetic Garnacha Syrah 2024
Familia Torres Magnetic Tinto is a bold and expressive Spanish red crafted from Garnacha and Syrah. Modern and approachable, it combines a vibrant fruit core with subtle oak influence and a silky, rounded structure — the kind of everyday red that consistently over-delivers for the price. Why You'll Love It Familia Torres has been at the forefront of Spanish viticulture for generations, combining innovation with deep respect for tradition. Magnetic Tinto is a perfect expression of that philosophy — blending the sun-ripened richness of Garnacha with the structure and spice of Syrah to create a wine that is both immediately enjoyable and genuinely well-crafted. Fruit-forward, smooth, and endlessly versatile. Vineyard & Production Sourced from carefully selected vineyards in Spain, the Garnacha and Syrah grapes are harvested at optimal ripeness to preserve their vibrant fruit character. The wine is vinified to highlight the natural richness of the blend, with a touch of oak ageing adding toasty complexity and a smooth, rounded texture without overpowering the fruit. Tasting Notes Deep ruby red in colour. The nose offers an intense fragrance of forest fruits led by blackberry, layered with toasty oak nuances. On the palate, ripe black fruit is enriched with a touch of spice, unfolding into a smooth, rounded texture and a sweet, lingering finish. Perfect Pairings Pairs beautifully with grilled meats, roasted vegetables, tapas, and aged cheeses. Its fruit-forward style also makes it a fine companion to Mediterranean dishes, rich pasta, and slow-cooked stews. The Blend Garnacha and Syrah from Spain , Familia Torres
