Hollick The Bard Cabernet Sauvignon Coonawarra 2017
Australia (13.5%, Seven Cellars, Brighton, £ 12.95; Vineyards of Sherborne, Dorset, £ 12)
It is a beautifully structured wine, all in cedar and blackcurrant. Try it if you like burgundy.
Taste the Barossa Cabernet Merlot 2019 difference
Australia (14.5%, Sainsbury’s, £ 11.50)
A hug of a red bear, this is a thick textured blend of mostly Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Rich and spicy, and aged in oak barrels, it is a cozy wine for a cool night.
Ebenezer & Seppeltsfield Shiraz 2019
Barossa Valley, Australia (14.5%, M&S, £ 14)
Made by the Langmeil winery, this wine is aged in French and American oak barrels, and is thick, sumptuous and robust, with flavors of licorice and black fruit. A very good wine.
Beira Douro Touriga Franca 2016
Portugal (13.5%, Grape & Grind, Bristol, £ 14.50; Noble Grape, Cowbridge, £ 14.99)
It is one of the varietals used for port, it has a slightly floral scent and makes a red with lots of stuffing and a hint of pink berries.
Chateau Beau-Site 2015
St-Estèphe, Bordeaux, France (13%, Coop 124 stores only, £ 22)
You might not be thinking of Co-op for burgundy, but it has a really great lineup. It’s polished, dark and serious, from a ripe vintage. Also discover Ch Beaumont 2017 (£ 16) and Ch Sénéjac 2018 (£ 17).
