Australian Merlot is often overlooked, quietly living in the shadow of Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon. However, it delivers wonderfully juicy, plum-and-red-berry-laden grapes to award-winning winemaker David King, who transforms them into one of the most drinkable red wines available. This Merlot is perfectly ripe and smooth, with a delicate spiced edge and notes of plum, blackberry, and vanilla.

Southern France is renowned as being a hotspot for famous artists. Coloquially referred to as "the artists' playground" we realised that winemakers of the region are just as much artists with wine as Matisse was with a paintbrush. Here winemaker Cedric Ragues has painted his own picture with this Cabernet Sauvignon. Brooding with black fruits and Cabernet's signature herbal notes, it is one best enjoyed with roasted lamb with lashings of mint sauce.

South Australia's McLaren Vale sources truly premium fruit. We've championed the wines from here for a many years and always get first dibs on the best parcels. When our winemaker, Steve, was offered this parcel, he recognised that it was the best fruit he'd seen in years and produced a wine that sat above our all-time-favourite Aussie red - The Black Pig! It has a depth of black fruit that is incredible alongside intense spice and a full-bodied style that screams out for grilled meats of all kinds, although its status as a vegan-friendly wine makes it a popular choice across the board.

We’d discussed blending a pure Grenache with Languedoc winemaker Cederic Ragues and set about it back in December 2023. It was cold, and we couldn’t get to him until the evening due to prior commitments, so he suggested we did it at his family home. It all took place around his kitchen dinner table, surrounded by samples and blending apparatus. We tinkered away and the finished wine is a raspberry and cherry fruit-filled classic, perfect for enjoying all year round, either by the glass or paired with a wide variety of home-cooked classics.

Therefore, when we tasted this joyous, fruit-filled Cabernet Sauvignon with winemaker Arthur Basson and he referred to it as 'lekker', we had to name it just that!
