\n<\/strong>\u00a35.95 The Wine Society
\n15% alcohol
\nThis is such a bargain. Salty, tangy and yeasty this has nice bright fresh apple and citrus fruity notes, in an elegant, bright style. Nice purity. 91\/100<\/p>\n
\n\u00a38.25 The Wine Society
\n13.5% alcohol
\nFine, fresh, aromatic and pure with lovely fruity cherry notes. Floral, bright and juicy with nice weight and some seriousness as well as fun. Who needs oak? 90\/100<\/p>\n
\n\u00a318.50 The Wine Society
\nThis has aged really nicely. It has a slightly faded colour with a brick-red rim. Lovely classic nose of herbs, spice, undergrowth. Restrained and elegant on the palate with some cherry fruit and nice maturity. So good to be able to get well aged Bordeaux at this price. 93\/100<\/p>\n
\n\u00a326 The Wine Society
\n14% alcohol
\nThis is pretty special: it’s not your fruit-bright New Zealand style, but instead has some savoury complexity. Supple and refined with spicy cherry and strawberry fruit and some fine savoury notes, with minerals and herbs. Understated and fine. 94\/100<\/p>\n
\n\u00a310.95 The Wine Society
\n13% alcohol
\nLovely floral nose with some chalk and fine herb notes. Linear, juicy and fruity on the palate with brightness, freshness and poise. A classic Loire Cabernet Franc of some class. 91\/100<\/p>\n
\n\u00a39.50 The Wine Society
\n13.5% alcohol
\nSupple, bright and slightly smoky with a mineral edge to the stylish cherry and plum fruit. Some herb\/garrigue complexity. Grown-up Languedoc red with nice personality. 90\/100<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
