6 BIN END BELTERS! A chance to try 6 wines in our BIN END SALE this Saturday, 12pm - 3pm.

WHITE WINE
- COUR SAINT VINCENT "LES MOURGUETTES" (20% OFF! Was £8.99, NOW £7.19*): A wonderfully versatile white with flavours of tangy citrus and stewed apples. The fantastic balance of rich fruit and acidity means this can partner both rich and light foods with aplomb!
- LOUIS LATOUR MARSANNAY BLANC (20% OFF! Was £15.99, NOW £12.79*): A classic white Burgundy - this has ripe aromas and flavours of citrus, candy and stone fruits beautifully overlaid with vanilla and floral hints. Wonderful with chicken roasted with thyme and lemons.

RED WINE
- VIEUX PARC SELECTION (20% OFF! Was £11.99, NOW £9.59*): Gold medal-winning red from Corbières. Enjoy intense, rich berry fruit flavours with a hint of spice and vanillla.
- CHATEAU AMPHOUX "GALION DES CRETES" (20% OFF! Was £14.99, NOW £11.99*): The 14 months spent in oak have given this wine a lovely mellow edge - mouth-coating with spicy black fruit. Based in Costieres de Nimes, this area is gaining a reputation for producing fantastic, great-value-reds to rival Rhone wines like Chateauneuf-du-Pape.
- MAS DE CHIMERES COTEAUX DU LANGUEDOC (20% OFF! Was £11.99, NOW £9.59*): Made by an Asterix lookalike, this is bursting with spiced plums and blackberry and hints of cloves and cinnamon. Great with wild boar!
- DOMAINE SAINTE CROIX "CELESTRA" (20% OFF! Was £24.99, NOW £19.99*): Jon and Liz Bowen, who own Sainte Croix are passionate about producing unique, contemplative wines and "Celestra" is no exception. Made from old vine Grenache, Carignan and Syrah this is an elegant yet very big mouthful of intense ripe blackberries, wild raspberries and figs with background notes of violet and soft brown sugar. Heavenly!
