Intense mahogany colour, with aroma of raisins. On the palate it is rich, velvety and very smooth with a long after taste. To be served during dessert slightly chilled or delicious poured over ice cream.

Badiola is a winery in the heart of Rioja Alavesa. Founded in 2018 by acquiring an existing winery, Badiola offers village and single vineyard wines that display the freshness, elegance and depth of flavours which distinguish Rioja Alavesa.

Subtle but intriguing on the nose and juicy and refreshing on the palate the Las Parcelas Blanco is a delightfully delicate dry white wine.

Barbadillo, an established quality Sherry producer since 1821, continue to produce some of the 'Jerez Triangle's' best examples for great prices. Proud to introduce their "reserve" level Pedro Ximenez, La Cilla, to our range, this exotic Sherry is made using sun-dried racking which emparts a luscious rainened flavour up front. On the wonderfully viscous palate, sultana flavours come to the fore with obvious notes of caramel. The wine though is beautifully balanced with sweetness that is not over the top in any way. Perfect served over some rich vanilla bean ice-cream!

The Reserva Tempranillo blend from iconic Riojan producer, Marqués de Riscal is made from fruit sourced from outstanding vineyard sites that are in excess of 15 years of age. This fruit is able to withstand the lengthy maturation process in oak due to the fine, complex tannin and acid structure. The resulting wine is classically savoury with notes of dark berries and toasty oak. The palate is long and rounded with interesting hint of spice.

What a coup to get this wine into our range. Certainly and deservedly one of the most highly regarded Rioja producers. These are the Riojas from which dreams are made. Think leather chesterfields, smoked meats and cigar-box.

Maidenii Dry was created with the martini in mind. However the versatility of this style means that it is just as delicious drunk straight, with a dash of tonic or with a larger measure of gin.

De Bortoli 'Old Boys' 21 Year Old Tawny is a classic tawny from the producer of some of Australia's premier styles. An array of aromas are on display with dark raisined fruits, mocha, hints of vanilla and nutty aged barrel characters. On the palate the flavours of mocha continue with a richly concentrated texture. A supreme long length leaves you with a smooth and lingering finish.

A hand-selected parcel of 10-year-old South Australian Tawny has been finished in first fill, small format ex-Bourbon barrels for 6 months resulting in this expressive example from the house of Galway Pipe. The small format Bourbon barrel ageing has a profound influence amplifying the premium tawny's character with exotic bourbon notes of charred wood, rye, and toasted malt. With complex flavours on the palate such as caramel, vanilla, fruitcake, and an abundance of sweet spice entwining harmoniously with the tawny's essence to create a perfect union.

With a dark, red colour, Grahams Natura is faithful to Grahams traditional style. It has a wonderfully fresh, floral and elegant nose, followed by a rich, sweet and fruity palate. Made with organically farmed grapes and the highest possible attention to detail.

Badiola is a winery in the heart of Rioja Alavesa. Founded in 2018 by acquiring an existing winery, Badiola offers village and single vineyard wines that display the freshness, elegance and depth of flavours which distinguish Rioja Alavesa. Made from the highest quality, selected Tempranillo grapes from small, old hillside vineyard parcels (Parcelas) on limestone soils. The quality of the fruit shines and is beautifully balanced by fresh acidity. A serious lightly oaked wine that will benefit from two to three years cellaring.
