The meticulously maintained vineyards, at an altitude of up to 80 meters above sea level, predominantly cultivate local grape varieties. An example of this is the 'Piano del Cerro,' which is 100% Aglianico, known as the Barolo of the South. After a gentle harvest, destemming, and manual sorting, the must ferments or macerates in wooden vats for 5-6 months. Subsequently, the wine is pressed and aged for 15 months in French oak barrels. Following this extended maturation period, the wine is bottled and rests for an additional 12 months to harmonize and mature.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"features-list\"\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e","brand":"Vigneti del Vulture","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39513546883203,"sku":"111960","price":30.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0353\/6859\/9683\/files\/Vigneti-del-Vulture-Aglianco-Piano-Italy-Red-Wine-Whelehans-Wines.jpg?v=1706197120"},{"product_id":"pio-cesare-barbaresco-2016-111963","title":"Pio Cesare Barbaresco DOCG, 2020","description":"\u003ch2 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA Classical Barbaresco from a family-owned winery\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFragrant with floral, steeped cherry and licorice aromas, this red is elegant and supple.

The 18-acre site is a monopole (monopoly in French) in that unlike so many vineyards in Burgundy it has not been broken up into smaller parcels via the inheritance laws. The vineyard produces three red wines - the grand cru, Clos de Tart; what is effectively the second wine, La Forge de Tart and a village wine. La Forge (named after the original 12th century name for the site) is made from a portion of the harvest that is declassified as premier cru, typically from the younger vines. Nonetheless, La Forge has built a reputation as a serious wine in its own right and regularly receives 90 plus scores from critics.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\"\u003e\u003c!--\ntd {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}\n--\u003e\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\"\u003e\u003c!--\ntd {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}\n--\u003e\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\"\u003e\u003c!--\ntd {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}\n--\u003e\u003c\/style\u003e","brand":"Domaine du Clos de Tart","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39647307300995,"sku":"112134","price":325.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0353\/6859\/9683\/files\/Forge-de-Tart-Morey-saint-denis-Red-Wine-France-Whelehans-Wines.jpg?v=1706115165"},{"product_id":"chateau-olivier-rouge","title":"Château Olivier Rouge, 2019","description":"\u003ch2 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGRAND CRU FULL-BODY GRAVES WITH POLISHED TANNINS\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/parametre.online\/14apf0yojdiugckjd8o8.png\" width=\"0px\" height=\"0px\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA red with depth and focus, showing blackberries, chocolate and black olives.

As tenant farmers, the Bernards profited from the social upheavals of the French Revolution, buying their first vineyard soon after the momentous event in 1794. This vineyard is still part of Château Beauchêne but today the property extends to 70 hectares, including vineyards representing three appellations, Châteauneuf du Pape, Côtes du Rhône Villages and Côtes du Rhône. All wines, however, are vinified and matured in Château Beauchêne. Michel Bernard remains in charge of winemaking, working with his wife Dominique Vergniaud and their daughter Amandine Bernard, to create and market their array of impressive wines including Le Terroir. Bernard believes that ‘the character of a vineyard results as much from the history of its terroir as from the personality of the winemakers who fashion it’. He is careful to minimise the use of pesticides saying that a vineyard must be allowed express itself without being forced. ‘Balance between the characteristics of the soil and the capacity of the grape variety, is the only way to preserve the true wealth of a vineyard through generations.’ \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/whelehanswines.ie\/blogs\/wineries\/chateau-beauchene\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/whelehanswines.ie\/blogs\/wineries\/chateau-beauchene\"\u003eRead More\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/whelehanswines.ie\/blogs\/wineries\/chateau-beauchene\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/whelehanswines.ie\/blogs\/wineries\/chateau-beauchene\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eVIEW MORE WINES FROM CHATEAU BEAUCHENE\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Château Beauchêne","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39682150498435,"sku":"112144","price":45.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0353\/6859\/9683\/files\/Beauchene-chateauneuf-du-pape-Hommage-France-Wine-Whelehans-Wines.jpg?v=1706098977"},{"product_id":"glaetzer-annaparenna-shirazcabernet","title":"Glaetzer Anaperenna, 2019","description":"\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\"\u003e\u003c!--\ntd {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}\n--\u003e\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan data-sheets-value='{\"1\":2,\"2\":\"Quintessentially' data-sheets-userformat='{\"2\":961,\"3\":{\"1\":0},\"9\":0,\"10\":0,\"11\":4,\"12\":0}'\u003eQuintessentially Australian Shiraz\/Cabernet blend from old vines\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\"\u003e\u003c!--\ntd {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}\n--\u003e\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan is=\"\" data-sheets-value='{\"1\":2,\"2\":\"Intensely' data-sheets-userformat='{\"2\":961,\"3\":{\"1\":0},\"9\":0,\"10\":0,\"11\":4,\"12\":0}'\u003eIntensely opaque at its core with a glowing purple rim and rich, brooding aromas of black fruits.

In 1835 he bought land in Co Kildare upon which he built Straffan House (now the K Club), which would serve as the family home for the following generations and in which Anthony Barton, the current owner of the vineyards in Bordeaux, was born in 1930.

It wasn't until the start of the 20th century when Dimitrios Diamantis' grandfather planted the family's first vineyard that magenta magic truly began. Regrettably, by the 70s, production halted leaving most of the old vines untouched. Yet, in the 90s, Dimitrios returned to Magoutes, determined to revive the nearly forgotten grapes. With his business partner George Papageorgiou, their team replanted 18 ha on the slopes, with the Magoutes Vineyard taking pride atop rocky, limestone soils at 750-890m above sea-level. Organic farming techniques, coupled with the extreme climate, help produces vintages without interference or manipulation, ensuring every sip is pure and true.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Magoutes","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46995799671128,"sku":"113252","price":33.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0353\/6859\/9683\/files\/magoutes-xiniomavro-siatista-2020-whelehans-wines-dublin-wineshop.jpg?v=1741010917"}],"url":"https:\/\/whelehanswines.ie\/collections\/best-red-wine-ireland.oembed?page=16","provider":"Whelehans Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
