Domaine Treloar Muscat d'Alexandrie 2006 - Vin de Pays d'Oc
Domaine Treloar Muscat d’Alexandrie 2006 table

Vintage	2006
Region	Vin de Pays d'Oc, Trouillas, west of Perpignan
Colour/Style	Dry white - medium bodied.
Grapes	100% Muscat d’Alexandrie
Alcohol (a.b.v)	12.5%
Food	As an aperitif or with salads, seafood, lemon chicken
Next day	Still good
Drink	Now, or over the next year (to 2009)
Ultra-pale straw/gold colour with green glints, with lovely grape and peach aromas. The palate is fresh and zingy, with typical "grapey" (honest!) flavours and hints of passion fruit and lime/lemon and a very decent length of flavour, with no hint of bitterness on the finish. Deliciously light on its feet, yet full of flavour - summer in a glass! Serve chilled. Tasting note by The Wine Gang - March 2009 "There's a gentle nose of orange blossom and slightly smoky herbs reminiscent of thyme and bay. The palate has dry, clean, quite mineral and nutty flavours with a pithy finish. Quite fine this, and majoring more on minerality than any more flamboyant Muscat character. 88/100"

Price: £7.35 (Including: VAT at 15%)

Domaine Treloar One Block Muscat 2006 - Vin de Pays d'Oc
Domaine Treloar One Block Muscat 2006

Vintage	2006	Image to follow
Region	Vin de Pays d'Oc, Trouillas, west of Perpignan
Colour/Style	Dry white - medium bodied.
Grapes	90% Muscat a Petits Grains, 10% Muscat d’Alexandrie
Alcohol (a.b.v)	12.9%
Food	Salads, seafoods and creamy cheeses
Next day	Still good
Drink	Drinking now, or keep for up to 2 years
A pale coloured, very slightly off-dry wine (residual sugar 3.8g/litre). Fantastic grapey and floral aromas with a hint of passion fruit and lemongrass. Subtle lime and peach flavours with a long creamy texture. Extremely fresh, fleshy fruit flavours, with great balance and none of the bitterness on the finish sometimes found in this style of wine. Serve lightly chilled. Tasting note by The Wine Gang - March 2009 "This has a typically floral perfume, with Spring flowers and touches of spices and lime. Though dry Muscats can often be a bit of an anti-climax on the palate, this one retains a vivid freshness and touch of exoticism, finishing with steely precision. 87/100"

Domaine Treloar La Terre Promise Macabeu 2007 - Vin de Pays des Cotes Catalanes
Domaine Treloar La Terre Promise Macabeu 2007 table

Vintage	2006
Region	Trouillas, west of Perpignan
Colour/Style	Dry white - medium-to-full bodied, aged in oak barrels
Grapes	100% old vine Macabeu
Alcohol (a.b.v)	12.5%
Food	Strong cheeses, chicken, paella, fish stew
Next day	Better still - evolving
Drink	Excellent now, but will age for at least 5 years or more
An attractive straw/gold colour. A touch of sulphur on the nose quickly blows off to reveal notes of honeysuckle , rosewater, orange and spice, with a touch of toasty, oak vanillin. There is a lot going on here - flavours of lemon and orange pith and a variety of spicy, herby flavours, notably cinnamon, oregano and clove. Persistent and tangy, leading to a warm, spicy finish. There is a good deal of acidity, which balances out what is essentially quite a rich, honeyed wine, with just a hint of residual sugar and a touch of spritz. A really lovely and intriguing wine, which is drinking nicely now, but should evolve over the next few years and become even more delicious and quirky. Tasting note by The Wine Gang - March 2009 "Immediately quite complex on the nose, this has echoes of waxy parcel string, a deep walnut quality and orangey fruit. On the palate it is dry and quite mineral, with just a pleasant suggestion of sweet oak flavours, and masses of dry, pithy orchard fruit acidity. Lovely and unusual stuff that Treloar reckon will cellar. 89/100"

Domaine Pietri-Geraud Blanc l'Écume 2007 Collioure
Domaine Pietri-Geraud l'Ecume Blanc 2007 table

Vintage	2007
Region	Collioure - by the Mediterranean, near the Spanish border
Colour/Style	Dry white - medium-to-full bodied, barrel fermented.
Grapes	85% Grenache Blanc & Gris, 15% Vermentino
Alcohol (a.b.v)	13.5%
Food	White meats, grilled or baked fish, seafood
Next day	As good
Drink	Excellent now, or keep for 5+ years
Complex aromas combining honey, apple and citrus. Smoky, floral and liquorice notes add yet more dimensions to another complex wine. The palate is again rich and savoury, full of fruit and still with that lovely streak of citrus acidity and minerality. The oak tannins from the barrel fermentation add yet more depth and complexity. An extremely elegant wine, there is layer upon layer of interest here, which can only be enhanced by another year or two in bottle, although it is already drinking really well. Another brilliant wine from Laeticia Pietri. Tasting note by The Wine Gang - March 2009 "The tiny Laetitia Piétri makes some great wines in her equally tiny cellar. This Grenache Blanc and Vermentino cuvée is barrique-fermented and has a nutty nose with Cox's Pippin fruit. Sweetness of fruit, texture, softening oak and good acidity combine beautifully on the palate. Good length and intensity too. 90/100"

The Roussillon New Classics Case - Save £10
Roussillon New Classics case offer

With the neighbouring Languedoc region occupying a good deal of the limelight in recent years, Roussillon sometimes gets (unfairly) overlooked. The hierarchy in Roussillon is a good deal simpler than that of the Languedoc, and bears a similarity to the southern Rhone - and the wines bear more than a passing resemblance, too. The main appellations are Cotes du Roussillon in the south of the region and Cotes du Roussillon Villages in the north. Unlike the Rhone, however, these two appellations can both produce equally good wines - indeed, some great ones. Furthermore, you tend to get a lot more bang for your buck, especially when you consider that a decent Cotes du Rhone Villages wine will cost you upwards of a tenner and often a lot more, whilst decent Chateauneuf du Pape and Gigondas start at around double that figure. In Roussillon, it is possible to buy some stunning wines in the £8 to £12 bracket, with the best wines (both red and white) rarely costing more than about £15. And the coastal region of Collioure is a source of some brilliant dry red and white wines, whilst Banyuls (which is essentially the same region) produces possibly the finest fortified wines in the whole of France. Add to that a wide variety of dry wite wines, plus the delicious fortified Muscats, which are a speciality of the region, and it really does have all the bases covered - as do we, with four of the region's finest growers, offering an array of wines which are a match for any on our list.

So, having recently taken delivery of a whole host of fabulous new wines from Roussillon, and in order to tempt you into trying the delights of Roussillon, we have put together a special mixed case offer of some of our very best wines from the region.
