• Mundo Organic Tempranillo/Petit verdot, 2018, £8. Midweight and well balanced, classically Spanish, a cracking ‘Wednesday’ wine, much better than it’s price.
• Trefethen Cabernet Sauvignon 2015, £45. One of the finest Cabernets in the world, in my opinion anyway.
• Thunderflower Gin, £36.50 A incredibly classy new Devon Gin, juniper led with floral notes, length poise and grace, stunning stuff.
• Fornaro Soave Classico 2018, £15. Proper Soave, grown on the granite centre is something to behold, well worth a try.

As Part of the fabulous national Fiver Fest, happening in independent shops around the country, for one week only from the 5th October 2019, any three bottles of Sandford Orchards Cider or any three bottles of Holsworthy Ales are only a fiver!

August’s Top Tipples:

• Bartinney Sauvignon Blanc 2017, £14.50. Stunning S.African Sauvignon, crisp layered & long, very classy indeed. Who needs Sancerre?
• The Dot Austrian Sunshine 2017, £12. Light in alcohol, refreshing, citric, lively, and a perfect summer tipple.
• 83 Rose 2017 £10. A very accessable Provence Rose, with light summer and currant fruits, pale colour and rewarding freshness. Yum
• Black Dog Gin, £38. Full bodied and spicy, just as something from Dartmoor should be, but with a great poise & balance, as proper gin should be. Perfect with my lovely Luscombe Tonics
