It would seem that the rain has returned for us here in beckenham. At least our gardens will be thankful for it. Now that its cooling down a bit a nice red sounds like a great addition to your evening. How about Pomerol?

There are but a few producers in the whole of France that you could call synonymous with the Pomerol name. The Moueix family own and look after one of the most incredible estates in the world and their impact upon the regulation of this right-bank commune is second to none.

This stunning merlot-dominated blend draws you in with gorgeous notes of violets, coffee, spice and liquorice. A wonderfully long and savoury finish with excellent tannic structure and acidity makes this one fantastic at any time of day... but better with a Sunday roast!

Cheers!
