In this mixed case, you will receive two bottles each of the following wines;

2022 Viognier, Domaine de La Baume, Languedoc
"The 2022 Domaine de la Baume 'Elisabeth' Viognier is a cracker, the follow-up to the 2020 we offered here some time ago. 100 per cent Viognier from the heart of the Languedoc, its full of peach and apricot notes and even a hint of raspberry, strangely, and a touch of spice. Its everything that decent Viognier should be except expensive. Just imagine what a northern Rhône version of this quality would cost."

2022 Blanc de Blancs, Domaine de la Jasse, Languedoc
"The 2022 Domaine de la Jasse Blanc de Blancs is also from the Languedoc, some 30 mins from Montpellier, and another great favourite of readers. A blend of unoaked Viognier and Chardonnay, it does everything that you want it to do. It's soft, creamy and aromatic with beautifully judged ripe fruit, surprisingly good acidity and an appetisingly off-dry to dry finish. It's brilliant value, and whenever we've offered previous vintages they've sold out immediately."

2022 Chardonnay, Domaine d'O, Haute Vallée de l'Aude
"The 2022 Domaine d'O Chardonnay is a new one on me and an unexpected delight. Produced by Burgundy-born Oliver Lemstra Bake in the foothills of the Pyrenees in the Limoux appellation, it's fermented in steel, undergoes partial malolactic fermentation and is then matured partly in steel and partly in oak. The result is that of a truly classy Chardonnay - creamy, full and rounded with hints of apples, pears and citrus. Spot on."

2019 Rioja Crianza, Sancho Garces, Bodegas Patrocinio
"The 2019 Sancho Garcés Rioja Crianza is a lovely wine at a lovely price from one of Rioja Alta's leading co-operatives: Bodegas Patrocinio. 100 per cent Tempranillo aged for 12 months in oak, it's rich and full, with plenty of cherries and bramble fruit and a touch of spice on the finish. Rioja at its best."

2016 Château de Clotte, Cotes de Castillon
"The 2016 Château de Clotte is a fully mature claret from Castillon that's in peak condition. A blend of Merlot, Malbec and Cab Sauv and Cab Franc, it's soft and approachable with intense dark fruit, touches of cedarwood and spice and a long savoury finish. It really is impressive."

2018 Ronan by Clinet, Bordeaux
"The 2018 Ronan by Clinet is another corker from Bordeaux, in this instance from fabled Château Clinet in Pomerol. 100 per cent Merlot, it's rich and concentrated with plush, plummy fruit and whiffs of chocolate. It'll keep, yes, but I couldn't resist knocking it right back."
