Sweet Agnes gets great reviews

24 Feb 2010 09:34:35

We knew it when we selected this wine...

World class, award winning...

It's nice that the great and 'Goode' think so too

Jamie Goode is one of the first journalists in the UK to review Seifried Sweet Agnes, he writes:

'Intense, powerful, sweet and citrussy with lively spicy richness and apricot and peach fruit. Complex, viscous and intense with high acidity countering the sweetness, as well as some notes of pear and apple. Precise and spicy, with amazing intensity, almost like an ice wine in terms of the depth of flavour.'

For his full review, see Jamie's blog.

Tom Cannavan of wine-pages also has it as his wine of the week, plus has a great tasting video 

As ever here at Molly Brown's Wine List we try to be as competitive as we can, and at just £13.99 each if you buy 2 or more bottles, I think we have done it again!

Oz Clarke reviews our sweety!

Oz Clarke has reviewed our favourite dessert wine in just published 'At Home' Magazine!

Las Moras Late Harvest Viognier 2006

San Juan, Argentina

"This is brilliant with blue cheese, paté de foie gras or smoked fish.  The grape has a superb aroma of sun-warmed apple blossom, so would be perfect with a rich apple tart."

Joanna Simon Reviews Onda Nova

16 Nov 2009 13:03:04

Esteemed journalist Joanna Simon has just voted Onda Nova Verdelho one of her Wines of the Week:

2008 Onda Nova Verdelho, Algarve
Joanna simonYou don’t need to be a fan of Sir Cliff to like this verdelho. Equally you shouldn’t let the connection put you off. His name is on the label, but it’s just a small scrawl – sorry, signature – on the back. It’s a full-bodied, zesty white with tropical lime-jelly and lime-marmalade flavours. Refreshing, but somehow comforting too. 13.5% abv.
£9.99, mollybrownswinelist.co.uk

Decanter, Sept 2009
Botalcura Nebbiolo 2005
"Pungent red fruit nose. Lush, quite tannic and fresh with an atypical sweetness of fruit. Not obviously Nebbiolo but has finesse."
