Have not tried the Segredos 2023 bottle yet but it always hits the right note, a top Portuguese red wine. I found Darren and staff very welcoming and organised. The wine came well presented with a hand written card - nice touch 👌 they are going from strength ti strength there and nice to see a restaurant alongside the wine shop. They are a classy operation, all the best guys
Beautiful Chardonnay champagne. Excellent service from Whelehans. They go the extra mile to satisfy customers .
We really love SA cabs, like Kanonkop, Lanzerac, and Thelema. At €28 this is big let-down. Nothing of note, either on fruit, acid or tannin. Tastes like a wine that costs less than a tenner.
This is a light ish red (12.5%), but with a little bit of tannin, making it feel like a good red for an Irish summer. It comes across as something between a Grenache and maybe a beujolais, but have others refer to this grape as being similar to Italian Nebbiolos. It’s not my favourite kind of red, but it’s eminently drinkable and very well made.
It's a perfectly well-balanced Tempranillo. Ripe red fruit with hints of spice and a gentle touch of wood. Tannins are smooth, still slightly granular, balanced with a juicy and spiced mouth feeling acidity. Long and pleasant finishing. El Ribazo is made from the best vineyards of our exclusive producer Bodegas de La Marquesa."
