When Caroline and I got married, Caroline read a poem. So as it is our 4th anniversary this weekend there was only one wine in the shop to choose. You will have to pick up the bottle to know 😁. Oh, the wine is good too.

A few weeks ago The Guardian newspaper published an article about “Extreme Wines”. They featured six different wines chosen for their sweetness or tannins etc. We have in the shop one of the wines listed and varieties of a couple more such as Pedro XimĂ©nez and Old Vine Zinfandel.

As to the wine we have, it is a full bodied red from Madiran and the author has the following to say,
“Domaine Berthoumieu, CuvĂ©e Charles de Batz
Madiran, France 2017
Few wines have quite the intense, bear-grip of tannin you find in the dense, dark tannat-based red wines of Madiran in south-west France. Here that is matched with mountain freshness, savoury meatiness and dark currant fruit in a wine that’s ideal for a fatty cassoulet.”

Certainly one to try, I thoroughly enjoyed my sample.
