Light, airy Cinsault that justifies the descriptive tag of 'juice', clocking in at a happily gluggable 11.5%. Fruit is juicy red apple with mouth-watering tart cherry and the tannins are almost non-existent. Fun! Find out more.

A big bouncing ball of a Carignan - a world away from the heavier, more intense expressions you may link to the Languedoc or Priorat. It's all red berries like raspberry and cherry, with tart pomegranate and interesting herbaceous notes to boot. Find out more.

Chenin, but no buttery oak, this is all done in steel tank to keep that citrus twang just as clean as a whistle. Green apple and pear with some nice zippy white peach. The Baby Bandito range offers some crazy value. Find out more.

Stay Brave is the orange wine of the Baby Bandito bunch - it is Chenin Blanc with a week or so of skin maceration, followed by some rounding out in old barrels. Zesty acidity, ripe pear and spicy ginger. Find out more.

Slotting into the style of Testalonga's squeaky-clean and delicious Baby Bandito range, this feels a bit like a sparkling version of one of those wines made with Chenin Blanc. Really harnessing the zest and acidity of the grape, this is fleshy, vinous and super-zippy. Find out more.

A satisfying and easy-going pét-nat. On the palate there is a moreish off-dry sweetness balanced with a laser beam of acidity and thirst-quenching bubble. Find out more.
