Natural Wine For Spring

Grape – Merlot

Now that Spring is upon us heralding the end of the endless winter mist we thought it time to put together a selection of natural wines fit for the Season. Light, bright, fresh, aromatic, sensual: these are the bottles we reach for at this time of year.

Fabio Ferracane
Camaleonte 2022

A breezy, 'all-in' kinda wine that serves as an approximation of Fabio's overall style. Named after the chameleon as the blend changes every year - it is a mix of everything to be found in the cellar. Fruity, fun and delicious, with unmistakable notes of salty red cherries, some great texture from the skin-contact elements and it just goes down so so easily. Sicilian sunshine from start to finish.

Le Coste
Litrozzo Rosso 2022

Every year Le Coste create three different Litrozzo wines - Rosso, Bianco & Rosato - which always time perfectly with the arrival of warmer weather. The outsized litre bottles are a statement of intent; they are simple, nourishing wines designed to be knocked back with abandon. Your al fresco sun-trap is not complete without one! Find out more.

Vinyes Tortuga
Juicy 2021

As the name would suggest, this is an easy-drinking fruit-bomb red, made with Garnacha & Merlot and bottled with a little sugar remaining. This gives the cherry and watermelon notes a candied quality and a bit of a spritz without being properly sparkling. Great fun. Find out more.

  • Grapes Garnacha & Merlot
  • Vineyard Organic
  • Cellar Fermented with native yeasts, unfiltered & unfined, no additional sulphites
