    27 March 2012

    Here's a wonderful selection of the current customer faves from Laithwaites Wines curtesy of WinedayUK - something for everyone I think ...





    Il Papavero NV
    From £6.29 per bottle
    A seductive bestseller - the wine to choose for an authentic and outstanding-value taste of Italy. Il Papavero is consistently delicious with soft, supple, red berry vibrancy. Sangiovese from the Marches, Abruzzi Montepulciano, plus Negroamaro and Nero d'Avola from Puglia - a stunning combination.

     


    The Waxed Bat Shiraz Cabernet Malbec 2011
    From £6.99 per bottle
    Unique, rich blend of dark and delicious grapes from the hands of Argentina's brilliant Opi Sadler. Spicy Shiraz, curranty Cabernet and dense Malbec create seductive power and complexity. Smooth enough to drink on its own and terrific with spare ribs and tender prime steaks. Decant an hour in advance.



    El Bombero 2010
    From £6.99 per bottle
    Rich, powerful, old-vine Garnacha - grab yourself a fruit-packed glass of mighty El Bombero. Vibrant ruby-purple in colour and billowing ripe blackcurrant aromas prove a powerfully popular package whilst the plum, cherry and succulent blackberry tastes are kept silky-smooth by the soft 15% alcohol. Enjoy!

     

    Barón de Barbón Oak-Aged 2010
    From £7.99 per bottle
    Outstanding value, eminently quaffable Rioja from the exceptionally talented Murúa family. The Barón de Barbón has been called "arguably the greatest Rioja for the price on sale in the UK" (Scotland on Sunday) - no doubt why our customers order it more often than any other. With its mouthfilling, red berry flavours and fragrant vanilla character, this supple Rioja is most enjoyable on its own or with simple suppers such as grilled lamb chops, meaty pasta dishes or chicken casserole.


     



    XV du Président 2010
    From £7.99 per bottle
    Red wine at its full-on, untamed best - the awesomely concentrated reigning King of the Big Reds!
    The 2009 XV du Président was a huge success, with winemaker Mark Hoddy melding all the silken black fruit, spicy richness (and hallmark 15% power) you've come to expect - with intense smoothness. For 2010, he's upped his game even more, and the results are simply mindblowing. Mark's draconian selection process sees him pick every vine (some over 100 years old) and oversee every stage with painstaking care. This fastidious method takes time, but you can taste the fruits in every delicious, lip-staining glass!

     


    Pillastro Primitivo 2009
    From £7.99 per bottle
    One sip and you'll be hooked on that fantastic silky soft fruit of Italy's most beguiling red

     



    Cabalié 2011
    From £7.99 per bottle
    Velvety rich empire-building red - enjoy an opulent taste of Roman times! When multi-medalled winemaker Hervé Sabardeil wanted to recreate the style of heady, opulent red which once fortified the Roman legions, he headed to Maury. This small southern French town boasts a wine heritage dating back to the 2nd century BC, some of the oldest vines in France (prized for the concentration their ripe, sun-drenched fruit delivers) and the world famous Maury fortified red.

     



    The Black Stump Durif Shiraz 2011

    From £7.99 per bottle
    10th-anniversary edition of your No.1 bestselling wine - celebrate a decade of success . Dark, captivatingly smooth Durif - "the grape that takes no prisoners" (The Observer) - is used as a 'turbo-charge' to add even more inky-black fruit to juicy, spicy Shiraz. And it's simply a must-try combination! Velvety, voluptuous, and irresistible served in large glasses with char-grilled steak or Sunday roasts.
