Chateau Barouillet
Bergecrac Rouge 2023

Ideal all-rounder red, leaning to the sort of blend you'd expect from a region neighbouring Bordeaux. The grapes each show off a bit of their typical character in good balance; savoury Malbec, herbaceous Cab Franc, red-fruited Merlot and plummy, spicy Cab Sauv. Find out more.

Val de Combrès
L'Ivresse 2022

Deep, lip-smacking blackcurrant and peppery spice rules from the thicker-skinned grapes, with the Cab Franc contributing some plush sheen and herbal fragrance. Showing a bit more structure than previous vintages, this hits somewhere between the breeziness of Les Vacances and the heft of Les Quilles de Joie. Find out more.

Monteforche
Lo Sfuso di Collina 2022

A long-time, nice-price staple here at Wayward, this is a real, honest and unfussy country wine that we'd happily drink every day. 'Sfuso' relates to rustic wine that is often sold from a tap in local trattorie. That gives you an idea of what to expect here - simple and quenching, of the variety one rarely sees exported.

Noëlla Morantin
Momu 2020

Aromatically this is a textbook example of the grape; plush, brightly-toned notes of red berries, charred capsicum and ground coffee are vibrant and upfront. On the palate the wine is glossy, with deep, sumptuous fruit and gentle bitters leading into detailed granular tannins and a stony, mineral backbone. Find out more.

Domaine Bobinet
PIAK! Blanc 2023

A thirst-quenching blanc de noir of Cabernet Franc. That's right, white wine from red grapes! Invitingly hazy in the glass, with just the slightest peachy hue, this is one that is hard not to glug when the sun is shining down. Find out more.
