Weekly Treats - wine at silly prices (but you can only have 2 bottles)

We're spoiling you with these two!

This week we have a heavy hitting, award winning, Spanish Garnacha alongside a really special, modern take on Californian Chardonnay. These two wines are fantastic with food so this weeks pairings are bound to get the tastebuds tingling.

We want to continue to say thank you for all the support we have been given over the last year the best way we know how...by offering incredible wines at honest prices with some amazing weekly treat wines thrown in! We aren't trying to move stock with these wines, we haven't inflated any prices to give a discount, we genuinely aren't making any money on these wines... hence why we are only letting you take TWO BOTTLES MAXIMUM.

Tres Picos Garnacha

This wine opens with an intense bouquet of mature red fruits with elegant floral notes, typical of the best Garnachas. The palate is rich and well-structured with an abunndance of bramble and ripe strawberry fruit, warm vanilla and liquorice spice. Tannins are supple but evident and the finish is big, generous and long ...more
