‘Babone’, Muralia
£19.95
Chiara and Stefano Casali, the hosts, fell in love with all this in 1997, and turned this love into the adventure of their lives, with the clear idea of making a wine that would simply interpret the gifts of the land.
This fully organic winery produces great wines! All very well made and balanced with food in mind. Hand made, artisan wines at sensible prices.
Blending Sangiovese with Syrah is a trend that is really taking hold in Tuscany, with many top estates in Chianti and Montalcino producing interesting results. The Babone shows why this blend works, Sangiovese gives that lovely spicy cherry flavour and the Syrah adds a bit more dark fruit depth.
Obviously this wine goes very well with steaks and roasts but also meaty pasta sauces and hard, strong cheeses.

Fiano, Caiaffa
Caiaffa works to the principle of synergistic agriculture. They believe that nature is man's greatest collaborator, and that nature maintains balance. Certified organic, they do not use insecticides or pesticides in order to encourage a balanced  ecosystem and work at one with nature.
They are especially protective of the insects which live on and around their vines; they work in harmony with them and have established a symbiotic relationship in which both parties benefit. For the bugs make it possible for micro-oxygenation and provide the means for nutrients needed to make passage through the soil. This is reflective in their branding and their packaging.Caiaffa is located in Cerignola, a coastal town in the beautiful Tavoliere delle Puglie, northern Puglia. The Tavoliere area was once completely submerged in sea water, which has influenced a very special climate, in abundance of flora and fauna. The soils here are rich in limestone and the vines benefit from the mild Mediterranean weather. Through these wines, you can truly taste the authentic flavour of the land.
A lively and fresh white wine, with delicate flavours and aromas of ripe citrus fruit, stone fruits and white flowers. Great acidity and well balanced with a lovely long finish.
A great aperitif wine or perfect with salads, asparagus or light fish and shellfish dishes.
Ciconia Tinto, Casa Relvas
Touriga Nacional, Syrah, Aragonez plus others.. The Alentejo region of Portugal (North of the Algarve), produces some of the county's best value wines. This is a great example from Alexandre Relvas Jr and his team at Casa Relvas. It is rich and juicy blend with a long smooth finish, that tastes much more expensive than it is. Perfect for BBQ's and a really versatile wine to have on hand, complementing pizza, meaty pasta, pork chops...
