Gran Reserva 904 2015, La Rioja Alta

A great vintage of this Spanish icon. At ten years old this is drinking beautifully but has the structure to develop complexity for decades to come. Always a delight to drink.
The perfect wine for lamb but equally at home with a selection of hard cheeses.

Valpolicella, Alpha-Zeta
Alpha Zeta was started in 1999 to produce a range of modern, fruit-driven wines from the hills outside Verona. Leading New Zealand winemaker Matt Thomson works with growers (rather than buy bulk wine, which is standard among most wines from Verona at this price) to obtain ripe grapes (by reducing yields and picking later) and then, using Matt’s expertise, preserve these flavours in the finished wines. This has resulted in wines that offer great value, quality, balance and typicity.
The Valpolicella has bright, black cherry fruit and velvety tannins; a delicious wine that is perfect with pizza and light pasta dishes.
