The Olympic Red Essentials Mix of Six (6 bottles)
It's the season for Alfresco Drinking!
Muscadet and Trebbiano are light in body, delicious chilled, and classic matches with seafood. Soleil des Alpes rosé has delicate red fruit notes and an appealing finish - again chill it well. Frappato is a red wine drunk by Sicilians with more robust fish such as Tuna, and can also be lightly chilled. Chateau Malbat is a lighter Bordeax, 95% Merlot, so great easy drinking or to match with red meats on the barbecue. And you don’t need me to tell you why a bottle of top quality Organic Prosecco will be perfect in the sunshine!
1 x Fief de la Brie, Muscadet Sur Lie, Loire, France
fresh, crisp, dry, light wine with a good persistence of flavour. Green fruit and subtle floral elements. 'Sur lie' means on the lees, giving the wine more intensity of flavour as well as a creamier texture - The perfect partner to Moules marinière.
1 x Amanti del Vino Trebbiano, Rubicone, Italy
Fresh and light with good pear and apple fruit with decent length and a creamy texture - Great with Mediterranean vegetables or grilled fish.
