Partida Creus MUZ Vermut Natural (1ltr)
Something to pour over ice with a citrus slice and slurp on before dinner - this is Partida's take on the classic Catalan vermut - it has a bit more sweetness than Italian vermouth so can be drunk neat with a slice of orange, although a splash of soda,...

Celler Tuets Tot Negre 2019
Lean, pristine and with some lovely powdery fruit aromas, this is a much more delicate expression of these two, often heavily-extracted red grapes. A brief maceration produces a delightful light to medium-bodied wine. Full of fresh green flavours...

Mendall Espartal BP 2019
