USA - the unfortunate truth.

The world is currently divided as to how to approach the ‘Orange Tinged, Mush Brain’ currently in the White House.

While he is trashing trust in the US wholesale, real people are suffering across the world!

To the true Americans, I would say ‘stay strong’ 💪

The convicted felon is, I believe, nearing the end of his appalling charade.

Mid terms will be a justifiably huge embarrassment to him and the unintelligent lap dogs, backing Trumps every (lying) word.

I suggest that this should be reposted until even the cult followers on “Truth Social” feel the power of reality, rather than the verbal diarrhoea coming from TRUMP

The most important reality for world peace and stability, is that the USA needs to smell the coffee and confront the mush brain when he lies.

Be brave - bullies really need to be put in their place - ask Stalin & Hi**er.

Our Wine of the Week this week is a delightful NZ Sauvignon Blanc from Kim Crawford.

Many NZ Sauvignon Blancs have become too intense for some palates so this Kim Crawford is a model picture of moderation...

We love it's fresh acidity but equally delight in the fact that it is not too pungent.

Available www.lunzerwineshop.com now and perfect for the late summer nights in the garden!

We have cases of 6 for £75.00* here .. https://bit.ly/3KRVD4H

Have a great weekend!

Wine of the Week
Ségla 2015 - 2nd Wine of Château Rauzan Ségla

It looks like we are starting to get a glimpse of the summer days ahead but that doesn't mean you have to pack away the reds until the first sign of Autumn!

With the Rauzan Ségla 2015, 'Grand Vin' nudging £100 per bottle, we love the Ségla 2015 at about 1/3 of the price. This red is a firm favourite here at Lunzer Wine and always receives great feedback at tastings. As one of our most ordered wines we are happy to list 6 and 12 bottle cases in our shop.

You can find this wine in our shop here:
Case of 6x75cl at £215.00* - https://bit.ly/3rMuyJj
Case of 12x75cl at £430.00* - https://bit.ly/3K6al7M

#2015

Ségla, 2015, 2nd Wine of Château Rauzan Ségla (6x75cl) Since the family who own the Chanel brand took over Rauzan Ségla in 1994 the estate has come on leaps and bounds... As usual, I love to find the best way to taste their expertise and the 'second wine' from 2015 is a brilliant example -...

Make it a Magnum ...

We still have a while to wait for the warm summer days but the springtime sunshine is a perfect reason to stock up on some fabulous AIX Rosé magnums.

Drawn from one of the Provence’s most celebrated terroirs, AIX is created to be the purest possible expression of what a rosé wine can be.

AIX Rosé themselves say that their wine is "made for those who know how to appreciate wine. And for those who know how to appreciate life." We couldn't agree more!

We have tasted the 2021 which is another stunner but will probably benefit from a few more months in bottle.

Meanwhile, available online now we have some Magnums of the exquisite 2020...

We have a fantastic Port that we are showcasing this week as our Wine Of The Week ..

Fonseca 1985 Vintage Port

"A real ‘wow’ of a wine that promises to last a lifetime. 96 points”
Recently tasted in London and there is no doubt that this Port is a classic, still showing great character as it heads towards it's 37th birthday...

Fonseca has always been a favourite of mine and this is what the critics say about this particular vintage... "This port is a deep inky ruby with a broad red rim. Generous and seductive nose redolent of blackcurrant, cherry and ground coffee. The full round palate is supposed by thick well integrated tannins and delivers an abundance of luscious chocolate and blackcurrant flavour which lingers into the long velvety finish. A wine still poised between youth and maturity".

We have cases of Fonseca 1985 available for delivery from the first week of May and whilst the Summer is not really the season for Vintage Port, it is worth securing this vintage now for the next few Christmases, before it runs out...

Easter Lamb - Pinot Noir - California or Burgundy?

The Easter weekend is just around the corner and aside from the chocolate, we are planning ahead for the Easter roast.

We have a preference for a Pinot Noir to accompany our Easter lamb and we can highly recommend a couple of fabulous wines from Burgundy that step up to the challenge!

As a contrast we have also chosen two delicious Pinot Noirs from California and it might be fun to serve both to see which you prefer...

Our selections are available in cases of 6 bottles in our shop and are ready for delivery ahead of the holiday weekend.

Wine of the Week

The wine we are showcasing this week is the 2018, Prats & Symington Post Scriptum Douro from Portugal.

This is the sort of Second Wine of Chryseia - a Douro red wine made by the collaboration between Bruno Prats of Ch Cos d’Estournel and the Symington Family who own among other port houses, Dow’s, Graham’s & Warre’s.

This wine is full of character and a genuine treat in restraint from a warm (!) climate capable of making rich reds with power but also balance.

The average scores from 5 renowned critics for this wine is 90/100.

We have the 2018 currently in stock but we will start stocking the 2019 shortly. Please do contact us if the shop is showing out of stock.
