What a fantastic day! Hopefully this weather lasts us a bit longer so we can all enjoy it over the weekend with a great big barbecue with our friends!

While beer is probably the top of mind beverage for barbecues for most folks, don’t forget about wine! A glass of wine alongside your grilled favourites can elevate a meal from the simply mundane to truly memorable!

This week our selection is focused on wines which will suit a barbecue in the sun for certain. 

Puech-Haut, Saint-Drézéry 2015 @ £13.95 p/bt
The entry-level Rosé is the 2015 Languedoc Cuvee Prestige Rose, and it continues to be a sensational value. Made from 60% Grenache and 40% Cinsault, it’s light pink color is followed by perfumed notes of strawberries, orange blossom and spring flowers. Juicy, clean and refreshing, yet with texture, buy a case of this.
Try it with marinated and grilled seafood!

La Crema Sonoma Coast Chardonnay 2014 @ £17.95 p/bt

Straw yellow colour. The nose is characterized by white flowers green apples subtle oak and spice aromas. The palate reveal a slightly riper fruit character that displays white stone fruit, yellow plum and honeydew melon flavours. Richly textured and concentrated, with balanced acidity that drives a lingering finish.
Great with all barbecues meats and fishes.

Compania de Vinos Telmo Rodriguez Corriente 2013 @ £13.95 p/bt

This 100% Tempranillo, Corriente (tide) comes from the vineyards in Rioja Alavesa which is the smallest of the three wine-producing sub-regions in Rioja. Its vineyards lie at high altitudes resulting in cooler temperatures that help the grapes to acquire and retain moderate acid levels and good color. the soil on the slopes and terraces is rich in chalky clay and limestone, resulting in wines that are characterful and concentrated.
A good match for marinated pork and beef dishes or even simple burgers.

Come and have a go with these beauties. And don’t forget that we have our 10% discount available via our website by using the code GCC10OFF at the checkout.
