New Bordeaux Rosé, second in our own great price/quality lineup.
Cuvée Coco is nice salmon pink, crisp and zesty with hints of red berries and even grapefruit.
Good minerality and a long, fruity finish. 50-50 Merlot and Cabernet Franc.
A rosé that everyone will love.

Aegidius Bull’s Blood is the perfect all rounder, good with elegant, sit down meals or relaxed bbq as well.
Deep, intense notes of dark fruits with a hint of spice, bold character and rich, complex finish.
This blend of Blaufränkisch, Blauer Portugieser, Cabernet Franc and Merlot will give everyone something to love: anise, cherries, currants, cocoa, coffee, cognac and velvety tannins.
It’s a great example of the rich heritage and robust flavours of its region.

Plenty of rustic regional character, very natural unforced quality, a well-structured palate with blackberry and plum fruits, violets and cedar wood with a dusting of pepper. Damien Marres believes that the vines should be interfered with as little as possible and over the last few years has been converting his entire estate to organic farming. Based high up on the hillsides of the Côtes du Rhône Villages appellation, his vineyards benefit from the best terroir, with excellent natural drainage and full exposure to the sun promoting rich flavour concentration in the wines. Fruity, easy to drink, nevertheless complex and full bodied. An ideal accompaniment to the Sunday roast. Pick it up today from your Wine Buff. #thewinebuff #greatwine #domainemontmartel #cotesdurhone #organicwine
Château Tour Haut-Caussan, and its iconic windmill, is an inside secret for Médoc experts. Robert Parker, the world's most famous wine critic, called the family-run estate "excellent". And it's known to compete with some of the prestigious classified estates in its best vintages. But it’s still a fantastic value. Aromas of red and black fruits and smoke, flavours of ripe blackberries and cherries, firm tannins and a hint of oak. Perfect complement to lamb, veal, poultry, even some Asian dishes. A Bordeaux that performs great both on a summer evening or in the midst of winter with the fire on. #thewinebuff @chateau_tour_haut_caussan #bordeaux #medoc #crubourgeois #beautiful
Terras de Lantaño Albariño is the big brother of Ruta 49.
The grapes used are from the oldest vineyards in the winery, harvested manually with careful selection in the field.
Golden yellow in colour, fruity aroma resting on a floral background, and a fresh, complex flavour that leaves a long fruity and pleasant aftertaste.
Ideal with fish, shellfish, chicken, soft cheese or as an aperitif.

New in!!! Prepare to be energised. ⚡️⚡️⚡️ A very fresh Albariño, coming from the youngest vineyards of Terras de Lantaño, with zesty taste of crisp apple, melon sorbet and a clean citrus finish. Summer feel guaranteed. #thewinebuff @terrasdelantano #newwine #summerwine #albarino #riasbaixas
Fathers Day! If your dad prefers something more full bodied, choose Bordeaux. Rich garnet colour, aromatic nose full of ripe red berry fruit, the intense Merlot is refined by the Cabernet Sauvignon with a slight hint of spice and vanilla. Very well structured and a great length on the finish. Excellent showcasing of the region. #thewinebuff @vignobles.michel.coudroy #bordeaux #lalandedepomerol #giftideas #fathersday
Spoiler alert! No clear winner. The debate between screw cap and cork closures for wine bottles continues to captivate enthusiasts and industry experts alike. Screw caps, known for their convenience and consistency in sealing, prevent oxidation and cork taint, ensuring a fresher taste over time. Conversely, traditional corks offer a sense of ritual and romance, potentially allowing beneficial micro-oxygenation that can enhance the aging process of certain wines. However, corks can sometimes suffer from cork taint, leading to spoilage. Each closure has its proponents, and the choice often depends on the type of wine and personal preference. #thewinebuff #snippets #screwcap #cork #debate #winepreservation
New In
A truly elegant Pouilly-Fumé with a sunny character.
Notes of peach and apricot on the nose, very smooth on the palate. Flavours of grapefruit and lemon, and a fresh finish with great length.
Best served as an aperitif, and goes perfectly with fish and shellfish.

We really deserve a weekend of tranquility, sunshine, and a glass of rich white in the garden. #thewinebuff #winesofportugal @quintadoparal_portugal #alentejo #bankholiday #chill #enjoy #whitewine
The Kisfiam (“my boy”) is the only certified organic Egri Bikavér (Bull’s Blood). It is characteristic of the blend, with spicy forest fruits, vibrant acidity and medium tannins. Rich, structured and lively. Notes of cherry cobbler, herbs and spices on the nose, with raspberries and zippy grapefruit on the palate and an earthy long finish. Unfiltered and unfined. Blaufrankisch, Syrah, Pinot Noir and Cabernet Franc. It’s a beautifully balanced wine, one of the favourites of our customers. #thewinebuff @bukolyimarcell_organicwines #redwine #eger #organic #bullsblood #lambchops #kerrylamb #hungarianwine #simplepleasures #alfresco
