Affectionately known a 'Tractor Wine' amongst our regulars, here we have an accessible, nicely balanced Corbières red that avoids being scorched and overdone in favour of ripe, toothsome red and black fruit. No oak, but still rich and bold. Find out more.

Broad-shouldered Saint Joseph rouge from parcels on an east-facing slope at 330m, over lots of granitic gravel. Plantings from the early 1980's and massal selection vines from 2006-2008. A classic. Find out more.

At the fresher end of the Syrah-spectrum, with plenty of opulent, lip-smacking fruit. Lots of dusty blackcurrant on the nose, then glossy and vibrant in the glass. Generous and toothsome, propped up by a solid tannic backbone. Find out more.

Vital, high-energy Syrah a la Mazel. The blackcurrant and black olive flavours entwine to create something deeply savoury and saline. Find out more.

Made only with grapes from the plateau, elegant, fresh & balanced, with complex flavours of fresh blueberry, pomegranate and spice. A genuinely old-school wine that might not be what you'd expect from this far south in Spain. Find out more.

Another trademark juice-bomb red, this time using the unlikely blend of Cabernet Franc and Syrah, the former grape a real anomaly in this part of France. There is a lightness of touch on display that harnesses every last drop of vibrant fruit character; deep, lip-smacking blackcurrant fruit with a green, herbal fragrance, plush sheen and plenty of intrigue. Find out more.

Lively, energetic fizz from Patricia & Remi that screams to be opened in the sun. One of their geography-straddling négociant wines made using both red and white grapes from the Languedoc & Southern Rhône. The result is a deep rosé sparkler with lifted, peachy tints; red berry and aromatic yellow fruits in perfect harmony. Find out more.

A deep rosé pet-nat made using a direct-press of Syrah and Cinsault. Fruit-driven, with red berry and sour cherry flavours and a dry, herbaceous character. The bubbles are big, lively and frothy, making this a good-time fizz for party times. Find out more.

A plush, glossy wine with bright aromas of cherry and raspberry, both fresh and confected, over a compact body of these gateaux-like fruits, with a subtle framboise-esque almond note hovering just out of shot.

A big blend of all of Axel's grapes varieties go into the 2022 Avanti Popolo. The wine is bouncing with bright red berries, roses and juicy forest fruits, all tied together with a pronounced streak of minerality and a hit of green herbs and spice Find out more.

Val's nod to the classical style of Luberon and the only of his wines to see time ageing in barrel, for a more structured, rustic expression. Despite this more old-school treatment, the trademark vibrancy is barely concealed beneath the surface, a burst of spicy cherry and raspberry is reined in with developed notes of tobacco and sweet leather. Find out more.

A notorious cuvée from Jean-François Nicq, always released the October immediately following harvest, beating the famous Beaujolais Nouveau releases by a few weeks. Find out more.

Tom's more rustic, structured Syrah - a nice counter to the airy 'Poolside'. That lighter wine does play its part here, the whole bunches of old vine grapes are submerged in its fermenting juice, providing a balance of what he describes as 'youth and wisdom'. An abundance of umami flavours at play here underneath all the fruit. Find out more.

A rosado made from the white grape Macabeu? Si, si! The truth is that the skins from a pressing of Garnacha and Syrah have found their way into the tank and, a little bit like swishing a paintbrush around in water, their red pigment has seeped into the wine in the most delicate way. Find out more.

This is resolutely a red wine, despite 50% of the grapes being white, such is the influence of the Syrah. The Chardonnay and Viognier keep things delightfully silky and fluid, but the red grape provides a huge aromatic lift, that somehow seems to carry itself through into the palate, which is dense with dark blackcurrant fruits and juicy, saline black olive. Find out more.

One of the big names of the Northern Rhône; when not producing fine St. Joseph, Souhaut makes affordable, knockout Syrah from his plots in the Ardèche. Perfumed, with cracked peppercorn spice and a little lighter on its feet than his classical appellation wines. Find out more.

Lean, pristine and with some lovely powdery fruit aromas, this is a much more delicate expression of these two, often heavily-extracted red grapes. Celler Tuets coming good as per! Find out more.

A rustic, grippy blend of Syrah and Merlot from two different parts of the Adelaide Hills. Spiky acid, lots of deep blackcurrant and briny black olive and the faintest waft of eucalyptus. Find out more.
