France - Burgundy (5)

Fleurie Andre Goichot (75 cl), €17.99

Fleurie The most famous of all Beaujolais Villages. Made from the same Gamay grape as classic Beujolais but Fleurie is a heavier more powerful red. The same red berry fruits are evident, but now with some added complexity of darker fruits, pepper and Christmas spices make for a lovely, easy drinking but powerful red wine. Great with hard and soft cheeses and classic roasts, be it red or white meat.

Beaujolais Villages Andre Goichot (75 cl), €17.00

A lovely very soft easy drinking classic French red. Made from the Gamay grape, unique to the Beaujolais region. Dry in style with delicate red berry fruits and a nice soft warm earthiness. Can even be served chilled and can be enjoyed with all but the very heaviest powerful red or white dishes.

Georges Duboeuf Fleurie (75 cl), €15.49

Red French Wine

Bourgogne Pinot Noir Naudin Tiercin (75 cl), €22.00

To the eye, this Bourgogne Pinot Noir is richly coloured in its youth, then, with the age, shading towards dark ruby. To the nose it offers at first a basket of small red and black fruits (strawberry, cherry, blackcurrant, bilberry) later evolving into cooked prune and peppery notes. It is lively and structured in the mouth with a well-rounded and supple backbone.

Georges Duboeuf Beaujolais Villages (75 cl), €15.00

This Beaujolais-Villages has been made from Gamay grapes and carefully selected for its red and black berry aromas. Fleshy and full-bodied with silky tannins, it is best served slightly chilled with beef, rabbit or cheese.
