Adrián Serrano Rioja Reserva, Autol, Rioja
Oriental, Spain
Beautifully mature Rioja, with red-berry fruit,
warm spice, vanilla and a hint of cocoa.
Twenty-four months in French and American
oak make it velvety and supple, with a long,
satisfying finish. A favourite for its consistency
and balance.
Domaine Alary Tradition Cairanne, Rhône Valley,
France
New to our portfolio in 2026, and Jean-Étienne Alary
joined us in Dublin in March to show the wines. Rich
and velvety, with blackberry, liquorice and Provençal
spice, silky tannins and a long finish. Three stars and a
Coup de Cœur from the Guide Hachette.
Bouza do Rei Albariño, Rías Baixas, Spain
One of the 14 founding wineries of Rías
Baixas, and owner Isidoro now heads the
appellation board. He and his son Pablo add
a little press wine for extra body and a
smooth, textured palate. Imported
exclusively by us, and it ages well too.
Robert Mondavi Private
Selection Vint Cabernet
Sauvignon, California, USA
Destined for airline service across
Europe, this wine was grounded
by uncertainty over Middle East
flights and landed in Ireland
instead. Classic Californian
richness, with blackberry, cassis,
vanilla and mocha and a silky
finish. 40% off, at just €13 while
stocks last.
Gašper Sivi Pinot (Pinot Grigio),
Goriška Brda, Slovenia
Our favourite wine from a June
trip through Northern Italy,
Croatia and Slovenia. Ripe pear
and citrus, fresh acidity, subtle
minerality and a silky texture. A
step above the norm, with real
length and finesse.
Vaquos Cosecha, Ribera del Duero, Spain
Ever fancied a full-bodied wine that's light on its
feet? 100% Tempranillo from old vines, with pure
red fruit, spice, a light touch of oak and silky,
structured tannins. This one belongs on your wine
rack!
Domaine de Pellehaut Réserve Rosé, Gascony, France
Pellehaut's first ever Réserve Rosé, made only in small
amounts. Strawberry and raspberry fruit, subtle floral
notes and a rounded, concentrated palate give it real
depth. Think prestige Provence rosé at half the price.
