Brad's Wine Subscription Tasting Notes - August 2022

”I have been inspired to work with small, family-owned wineries because in my experience, they produce the best value wines that you can find. These wines are hand-crafted - they have a story about where they are from and how they are made - and it is these wines that I send out every month to our subscribers, wines with beautiful details that I enjoy sharing with people."

Wine buying made simple from only £49 / €54 for 6 bottles with free UK and EU delivery 🍷

40% Vermentino, 40% Grenache Blanc, 20% Ugni blanc. Brilliant pale colour, intense and fruity with dominant apricot and pear flavours. On the palate, further exotic notes are emphasized by a beautiful round structure. Ideal as an aperitif, excellent with fresh goat cheese on toast or Mediterranean fish dishes.

Viriatus 2021 Verdejo . Castilla y León, Spain
100% Verdelho, this fresh and lively white wine has a lovely acid backbone, with some floral characters on the nose and crisp and full fruit characters on the palate. Serve chilled with or without food, the perfect aperitif wine.

Carlin de Paolo DOC 2021 Chardonnay . Piemonte, Italy
This 100% Chardonnay from the cool-climate region of Piemonte is tank fermented (unoaked) and shows beautiful characters of green apple and nectarine on the nose and some tropical fruit on the palate - structured and crisp. A wonderful wine to marry with fresh seafood dishes or roast chicken and pork.


- AUGUST ROSÉ WINE

Baron de Cental 2019 Rouge . Ventoux, France
80% Grenache, 20% Syrah. Deep ruby red colour. The nose is intense and dominant with blackcurrant. On the palate, the Grenache expresses richness and balance.
