INSIDE TIPS
from Tom
Welcome
Our Fine Wine list is put together with two
specific aims – to thrill serious wine fans like
you ... and to reward you with great deals.
And boy, there are some great offers here. Like
£8 off the Gran Reserva Rioja (opposite) and
the 25% saving on the Bandol rosé on page 7.
For claret fans, Château Charmail (p.17), which
comes packed in wood, has a 35% saving.
Domaine Mourchon
Loubié Rosé 2024
Pretty, salmon-pink French rosé from an
estate with panoramic views across the
Rhône valley. Made from high-grown
Grenache, this has lovely freshness and
delicately spiced summer fruit flavours.
Côtes-du-Rhône Villages AOC. 13%. To 2029
£14.99 a bottle

There are plenty of mixed case deals too on
wines from Burgundy, New Zealand, Italy, Rioja
and beyond. And if you take just one mix,
go for the Fine Wine Showcase and save £67.
Enjoy browsing and stock up for spring.

its mature notes and buttery richness.
