Founded in 1843 and a family dynasty still, it is now owned by LVMH who bought it in 1999, but it still retains its unique character. the signal qualities of Krug are due to the very particular approach and methods used in its production. The house has a broad but discerning attitude with regard to blend and proportion in the cuvées. The unusual favouring and predominance of Pinot Meunier results in the production of highly successful vintage champagne. The Krug house does not follow received adages, but takes an empirical approach without prejudice. Champagne elaboration is an inexact, organic science; every harvest is different and there needs to be on-going modification of process to respond to the changing style and preference of consumers.

Rather than being a sub-category of the generic Bordeaux appellation, Bordeaux Superieur is a title in its own right, specifically covering both red and white wines. The reds have a slightly higher alcoholic content than standard Bordeaux, are aged for longer in oak barrels (12 months minimum) and are produced from older vines. The whites are distinguished from standard white Bordeaux by their higher residual sugar levels, which make the wines anything from semi-sweet to liquoreux. Bordeaux Superieur wines are produced from the classic Bordelais grape varieties. The reds are made from Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Carmenere, Merlot, Malbec and Petit Verdot (proportions vary according to vineyard locations), and generally tend to be a little richer and more complex than regular Bordeaux. They also, theoretically, offer better ageing potential, but this can be down to the winemaking. The whites are produced from Sauvignon Blanc, Sauvignon Gris, Semillon and Muscadelle.

From the results of these trials would appear what we could say was the precursor of the so-called “new era” of Rioja wines. This wine is produced on a very limited scale and only in the best vintage years, in which the character of the vineyard, the soil and the variety are expressed as part of a single, harmonious whole. Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature of 26ºC and the maceration period does not exceed 12 days. The malolactic fermentation takes place in small wooden vats with a capacity of 20,000 litres and the wine is then aged for 20 months in Bordeauxstyle barrels made of French oak. Finally, the wine spends a minimum time of a year rounding off in the bottle before being released for sale.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA dark cherry colour, lively with few signs of evolution.

It is lively and vibrant, always more powerful than the rest of the classic Riojas, making no concessions to fads and trends, preserving its elegance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo achieve this, Riscal uses grapes from old vines over 80 years old, either grown in our own vineyards or bought in from growers in the Rioja Alavesa district with whom we enjoy a long relationship, in some cases even going back several generations. After passing over the manual selection tables so as to remove any grapes which are not totally healthy and ripe, alcoholic fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature of no more than 26ºC, spending 14 days in the vat. Once the blend for this wine has been decided for this special type of wine, cask-ageing begins in French-oak casks and continues for 32 months, before bottling and ageing for a further 3 years, thus completing the process of ageing and refining of its tannins so as to achieve a rounded wine which is at the same time powerful yet easy to drink.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMarqués de Riscal 150 Aniversario 2016 is a wine with a very deep, dark cherry colour.

If there is a problem with the delicious wines brought forth from this natural paradise, it is that they tend to sell out pretty quickly and so the wines never reach the age they should to ensure optimum drinking and maximum expression. We have started to age a few bottles, so if you fancy some older vintages, get in touch and we will try and route some out for you. The current vintage is always still an exceptional bottle of wine, a bouquet of crushed blackberries and mulberries along with an array of smoky-leathery notes and a silky finish you can taste for several minutes. It is no exaggeration to suggest that this wine outperforms many first and second growth clarets. To finish off, a line from the current ownership...........We are not making coca-cola here - Samuel Guibert\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe story of Mas de Daumas Gassac is one of vision, enterprise, passion and pride. When the Guiberts first purchased their farm (the mas) in the charming Gassac valley they little realised that they had a particular micro-climate which would give them the potential to make great wines. A visiting professor from Bordeaux, one Henri Enjalbert, identified a particular red soil that was common to certain great estates in the Médoc and Grand Cru Burgundies. Under the thick garrigue scrub and shrubs covering the Arboussas hills, he found some 40 hectares of perfectly drained soil, poor in humus and vegetable matter, rich in mineral oxide. The terroir provides the three elements necessary for a potential Grand Cru: deep soil ensuring the vines’ roots delve deep to seek nourishment; perfectly drained soil ensuring vines’ roots are unaffected by humidity; poor soil meaning that vines have to struggle to survive, an effort which creates exceptionally fine aromas. Rock, scrub and tree clearing began in 1971 and the first vines, principally Cabernet Sauvignon, were planted on the 1.6ha plot. You only have to stand in the vineyards to engage with the subtleties of these wines. The hill is thick with garrigue; strong warm scents of wild herbs imprint themselves in the air; the quality of light is fantastic. The vines are planted in small clearings amongst a myriad of Mediterranean wild plants and herbs: bay, thyme, rosemary, lavender, laburnum, fennel, wild mint, lentisque, strawberry trees which all lend their aromas to the wine. It’s all part of the ‘terroir’ effect, a combination of soil, climate and environment that sets one wine apart from another, sadly an effect that is lost in modern monoculture, where huge areas are cleared of all vegetation except vines. At nightfall, the cold air from the Larzac floods into the Gassac valley, with the result that, even in the height of summer, the vineyards benefit from cool nights and moderate daytime temperatures. The micro-climate is a huge factor in creating the outstanding complexity and finesse of the red wines. Since the beginning, the operation has grown somewhat and they now produce a number of labels and price ranges, but the core ethos remains, and their flagship wines are still referred to as the Grand Cru of the Languedoc, whilst their 'everyday' wines represent outstanding quality for the money. It's for this reason they are one of our favourite estates.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fine Wine","offers":[{"title":"1 Double Magnum 300cl - 2015","offer_id":21299674579003,"sku":"","price":150.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"1 Double Magnum 300cl - 2016","offer_id":21299674611771,"sku":"","price":150.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0131\/6713\/2731\/products\/mas_de_daumas_gassac.png?v=1565364024"},{"product_id":"rioja-vega-limited-edition-double-magnum-private-sale","title":"Rioja Vega limited Edition Double Magnum - Private Sale","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV 13.5%\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRobert Parker 90 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal Wooden Case\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e90% Tempranillo-10 0\/0 Graciano.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e14 months in small oak barrels.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVery intense and attractive ruby red colour, bright, with purple reflexes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAromas of toast with hints of eucalyptus over a background of black fruits and liquor.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSweet and balanced on the palate, with hints of candied fruits and a very good tannic structure.

Intense and explosive, but also remarkable vibrant, the 2015 is one of the finest Tignanellos in recent memory. The 2015 also represents a bit of a shift in winemaking philosophy that favors picking fruit a bit earlier than in the past and also blending earlier than was the case in the previous period spanning 2004-2014, when the components were aged separately and then blended just before bottling.

Otherwise, this celebrated Tuscan blend is mostly Cabernet Sauvignon with Sangiovese. It opens to dark fruit aromas with crushed mineral, pipe tobacco, pressed flower and toasted spice. Its appearance is midnight black and profound. The wine delivers a sense of sheer excitement and nervousness that will subside with another few years of bottle age.

More than anything else, this has to do with the very unique characteristics of the 2014 growing season. The wine opens to a beautifully saturated and dark appearance. Thanks to the advanced age of the vines and their extensive root systems, fruit quality was well preserved despite the cool summer and late harvest.

This a very decadent expression of Opus One with a provocatively effortless harmoniousness that is truly difficult to resist.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScore: 97+ Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, Wine Advocate (238), August 2018\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"productReviewsContainer\" class=\"product-reviews-container\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"productReviewsColumn\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"productExpertReviews\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"expert-review\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"JB","offers":[{"title":"6 Bottle Case 6x75cl","offer_id":39898072055843,"sku":"","price":3570.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Bottle 1x75cl","offer_id":32321564639267,"sku":"","price":595.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0131\/6713\/2731\/products\/opus_one_dc83fc0c-6832-4102-83c9-4f09da799062.png?v=1596731098"},{"product_id":"opus-one-2014","title":"Opus One 2014","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRETAIL - IMMEDIATE DELIVERY\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV 14%\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"Mesmerizing aromas of flowers, bark, currants and blackberries.

Savory, tightly wound and intensely aromatic, the 2014 is going to need time to unwind, but it looks like it will develop along the more classic vintages here. The tannins are firm but also impeccably balanced. A sleeper wine for the year, the 2014 is shaping up to be a gorgeous wine that will handsomely repay several decades of cellaring. The 2014 is not an obvious Opus One, like the 2010, 2012 or 2013, but over time, I will not be surprised if it challenges or even surpasses some of those vintages. In short, the 2014 is a wine of tension, power and grace.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScore: 95+ Antonio Galloni, vinous.com, December 2016\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"productReviewsContainer\" class=\"product-reviews-container\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"productReviewsColumn\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"productExpertReviews\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"expert-review\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Berk","offers":[{"title":"6 Bottle Case 6x75cl","offer_id":39898071597091,"sku":"","price":3000.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Bottle 1x75cl","offer_id":32323081240611,"sku":"","price":500.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0131\/6713\/2731\/products\/opus_one_7e55a18f-ed03-4914-9c33-78a2183e4862.png?v=1596808629"},{"product_id":"opus-one-2015","title":"Opus One 2015","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRETAIL - IMMEDIATE DELIVERY\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV 14%\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"Composed of 81% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Petit Verdot, 7% Cabernet Franc, 6% Merlot and 2% Malbec, Opus One's 2015 Proprietary Red Wine is truly an iron fist in a velvet glove, delivering a powerhouse of flavors and structure with a seductively plush texture. It opens with a deep garnet-purple color and wonderfully spicy notes of cinnamon stick, cloves and fenugreek with a core of cherry preserves, redcurrant jelly, blackberry pie and warm plums plus hints of camphor, lavender and cigar box. Full-bodied, rich and bold in the mouth, it fills the palate with exotic spice-laced black and red fruits, framed by firm, beautifully ripe, grainy tannins and great freshness, finishing with epic persistence. Although it is already approachable, allow it another 3-5 years in bottle for its myriad of subtle accents to fully blossom and then drink it over the next 30+ years.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScore: 97+ Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, Wine Advocate (238), August 2018\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"The 2015 Opus One is just as fabulous from bottle as it was from barrel. Dark, sumptuous and voluptuous in the glass, with no hard edges, the 2015 captures all the essence of the vintage while retaining a good bit of aromatic freshness. At this stage, the new oak is still a bit prominent, but that should not be an issue as the wine ages. There is more than enough depth for the 2015 to develop positively for 20-25 years, perhaps more. Just bottled a month prior to this tasting, the 2015 is naturally a bit more reticent than it has been in the past. Winemaker Michael Silacci add that the 2015 will, in his view, follow a similar trajectory to the 2008, which he later opened for the sake of comparison. In my view, the 2015 will always be more extroverted, although it does need time to be at its most expressive. The blend is 81% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Cabernet Franc, 6% Merlot, 4% Petit Verdot and 2% Malbec.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScore: 96+ Antonio Galloni, vinous.com, March 2018\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"productReviewsContainer\" class=\"product-reviews-container\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"productReviewsColumn\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"productExpertReviews\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"expert-review\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Berk","offers":[{"title":"6 Bottle Case 6x75cl","offer_id":39898071924771,"sku":"","price":2880.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Bottle 1x75cl","offer_id":32323083403299,"sku":"","price":480.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0131\/6713\/2731\/products\/opus_one_703a79e6-dfd8-484d-bcdb-3516ce805fb4.png?v=1596808646"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.finewinedirect.co.uk\/collections\/fine-wine-gifts.oembed?page=18","provider":"Fine Wine Direct","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
