Wines for Easter Mixed Six

A creamy, luxuriously-textured, Champagne Method fizz offering tangy lemon citrus and quince with notes of baked apple and pastry. There is an elegant softness on the palate which is both flavoursome and floral. Great quality.

A big wine with herbs and violet on the nose, red and black fruit on the palate which shows plenty of oak. There are plenty of ripe tannins to give balance and there is good freshness on the finish. A top quality wine that will benefit from extended ageing.

Further thoughts from the Tanners team...

A big wine showing rich red fruits intertwined with herbs, violet and oak. Generous red and black fruits on the palate - raspberries, cherries and blackcurrants - all framed by delicious spicy oak. Fresh with balancing acidity, the ripe tannins add a silky texture to this fabulous Rioja. Hugely enjoyable now and difficult to resist, yet it will gracefully age further if you can keep your hands off it for a few more years. Richard Parsons-Jones, Tanners Team

Plenty of raspberry and plum notes, fresh and well-structured on the palate with elegant tannins bringing in backbone. Stylish, mid-term drinking. So consistent, this 'go-to' claret has delivered again.

With straw colour, a very, very silky texture and loads of weight, this is a great example of Viognier. Dynamic producer, Bruno Fina, grows the grapes at 750m, ensuring that the delicate orange and apricot aromas are kept intact.

A lovely soft, approachable Chardonnay from the Algarve, with a touch of pineapple and a hint of ginger. It is well-balanced with a lovely freshness and a gently spicy note on the finish.

Clean, delicate rosé from Lebanon made from Cinsault. Fermentation in stainless steel vats preserves the light, fresh fruit but it has great body making it the ideal foil for Meze or Tapas.
