Fantastic news for Viña Elena Pacheco, Patrick Schmitt writing for The Drinks Business magazine has awarded it Gold in the Autumn Masters & one of his top 3 wines out of the 300 short listed “offering bags of personality for a low price.” With a number of Gold medals awarded to red wines under £10 from Jumilla, if you are looking for a powerfully-flavoured, balanced and brilliant value red, then head to this part of Spain. Among those bargains was this particularly attractive fruity sample from Bodegas Viña Elena, using old bush vine Monastrell from non-irrigated organic vineyards in the far south of the region. Expect lots of bright, youthful fruits, from blackcurrant to red cherries and fresh plums, even a touch of pepper and voilets too, and some fine, mouth-coating tannins to dry the palate after all the ripe fruit.

As South Africa eases its lockdown this week, we are reminded that many of its people are left unable to provide for themselves or for their families. Those who were already living hand-to-mouth scenarios have lost their income during lockdown and now rely on charities, such as the HeadStart Trust, for food. Bruce Jack says the soup kitchens they’ve established in rural villages such as Struisbaai and Bredasdorp are pushed to capacity, unable to cope.
The HeadStart Trust has been working in poor and marginalised communities of the Cape for over 10 years. As a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, HeadStart has shifted the short-term focus of the Trust to Food Relief.
The HeadStart Trust has begun lobbying civil society organisations and government funds to donate financially but they also need your help to support these communities that are a foundation of food security. Click here for more information on how to donate.

Today Bryn from our Off Trade sales team reviews three delicious wines from Iona in South Africa - the Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Iona are based in Elgin, South Africa. At 420m above sea level, they boast some of the coolest vineyards of the Cape, where the average temperature ranges between 16,0°C to 18,5°C. This climate is ideal for growing Burgundian varieties due to the long, cool growing season allowing gentle ripening of the grapes. Harvest takes place up to two months later than in other areas of the Cape, allowing perfectly balanced wines to be crafted that are light, but not light-weight. But dont take our word for it, listen to Bryn...

As the sun keeps shining down on us, we strongly recommend you treat yourself to some fresh shell fish and Señorans Albarino. Watch the video!

Thank you to everyone for tuning into IGTV to see Ned Llewellyn & Arnaud Hereu, winemaker from Odfjell Vineyards, discuss the 2020 vintage in Maipo. Here's a summary of Arnaud's experience, "Spring frosts, a warm summer and drought has accelerated the development of vines and has led to an early start to picking, with a low production in all the Chilean vineyards in comparison with last year. The low yield per vine plus the heat has produced very concentrated grapes with a good quality, and that are very healthy because the drought caused the decrease of disease in the vines. As we continue with the harvest we will probably finish earlier than normal." Salud Arnaud and to all the team at Odfjell!

Pilton Cider is the second cider to be added the portfolio to answer to the call for lower alcoholic alternatives to wine. The mere words, Pilton, Somerset, evoke an image of sun dappled orchards in late summer. A truly English scene where cider has been made for generations and is integral to the fabric of the community.
The future just arrived. We are very happy to say the new 2020 Portfolio is now available digitally and will be in printed form soon. Click on the image for the online version.
The first of our new, lower alcoholic alternatives to wine to arrive is Once Upon a Tree Cider. Cider being made exactly the same way as wine – it is just naturally fermented apple juice. And it is naturally lower in alcohol, most between 3% to 8.5%. We have tasted them with many different dishes and all of us are very confident that not only are they a great drink, but they accompany many different foods well too. Simon Day, an experienced winemaker, had some form of epiphany in 2007 while in the corner of an orchard in Herefordshire. He decided to embark on a cider journey with the fundamental assertion ‘We will let the fruit do the talking’. And the approach seems to have borne fruit, if you pardon the pun.
