By Andy Lloyd – Chilean Wine Buyer

I am very pleased to let you know about the new range of wines that I have sourced from Chile exclusively for our On-Trade Commercial Customers.

These wines are produced by Luis Filipe Edwards, a renowned Chilean winery, and we have ensured that these wines are not available anywhere else.

The first pair are the Vina Carrasco Sauvignon Blanc and Merlot. This Sauvignon Blanc is fresh and zesty with lovely citrus flavours and a hint of pineapple. The Merlot is a soft easy style red with delicious ripe red fruit flavours on the palate.

We have also bought the Flor del Fuego range which consists of a Cabernet Sauvigon, a Chardonnay and a Rose. The Cabernet Sauvignon has concentrated flavours of plums with a slightly savoury edge. The Chardonnay is un-oaked but has been left to mature on its lees to give a subtle rich flavour. The rose is a deep pink bursting with flavours of strawberry and cherry.

These wines will be a great addition to any wine list.
