Vignerons de Florensac | Pique & Mixe Piquepoul-Terret

📍IGP Côtes De Thau Blanc, Languedoc Roussillon, France

🍇Terret 60% | Picpoul 40%

11.5%abv - A great mid week sip!

Featured in the Top 100 Highly Commended! Of which Ros took part in the judging panel ✨
—————————————————————————————
The Florensac terroir is one of the oldest planted vineyards near the Mediterranean coast and unusually for the South of France, this is a specialist white wine producer benefiting from the cooling breezes that moderate the heat.

Grown on high ground in vineyards that are planted on clay and limestone soils. The vines are night harvested in order to preserve aromas and freshness. Once fermented the wine is aged on fine lees with regular stirring of the lees in order to bring out richness and roundness. A bright and pale yellow wine with very fresh aromas of white flowers, acacia and hawthorn, this is a “gourmet” Picpoul.

Perfect match with oysters or seafood 🦪🐟

Need something bold for wine Wednesday?

Electric Bee Primitivo 🐝. £13

Very intense and incredibly complex, this beautifully crafted wine has an aroma reminiscent of ripe cherry, plum, and blackberry, yet retains a delicate freshness and softness on the palate. No oak ageing!

Did you know that Primitivo is the same grape as Californian Zinfandel?

If you like: lots of dark fruit, high alcohol levels, lower acidity, and less boisterous tannins - this is for you!

Yayyy! Thanks so much to everyone that voted! 🥈

This was a fully customer vote win- so we literally couldn’t have done it without you 🥰

Super proud of all the hard work the ladies put into the shop. If you don’t know we are a full female squad in Magees (for now anyway) .

Which might not seem that important but from my perspective (Rosalyn)- the drinks trade is still a very male dominated space, however that’s slowly changing! So big up the girlies that are paving the way in the world of wine and afield!

Two traditional method sparkling that need to be on your try list!!

Cava and Limoux AOC sparklings are made the same way as Champagne but cannot take the ‘Champagne’ title as they are not from the Champagne region 🤓🥂

Limoux is one of a number of French regions which produces a cremant style, so it’s made in the same method as Champagne but not aged for as long on its lees. This results in a lighter sparkling wine, so if you often find Champagne a bit heavy, this is one for you. It’s also quite a bit cheaper than its high profile neighbour!

Only having a bottle? Make it a Litre bottle!

Super excited to have our first couple of 1L bottles of wine on the shelves 🍷🍷

L’Archetipo - Litrotto Bianco 1 Litre

📍Puglia, Italy.

The perfect format for a dinner party of a group of 4-6. This blend of various local Puglian white varieties sees a touch of skin contact for extra complexity. It is a remarkably balanced, refreshing wine that ticks all the boxes - aromatics, texture, spice, and minerality.
_____________________________________________

Nibiru Tradition Red 1LTR

📍Austria, Germany.

A crunchy, juicy blend of Zweigelt and Merlot packed with ripe fruit and a great punchy finish. Serve with a slight chill for a very perfect party wine. This red blend from Austria is made with hand harvested fruit, aged in large barrels, and blended from different vintages.
