French, Italian and Spanish wines from BRW – with a distinct leaning towards the reds, as the name suggests! But just two estates are listed for Spain and four for Italy. France is obviously where the strengths of this company lie. (Oh, and sneaking in is an “Honorary French – owned by Jonathan Maltus of Château Teyssier”, an Australian wine!)
“We are direct importers of specialist, award-winning red, white and rosé wines from France, Italy and Spain with a reputation as one of the UK’s leading importers of wines from the Rhône Valley.
Looking at France Alsace, Champagne and the Loire all get a look in but it is the wonders of the Rhone that make the biggest splash. Each producer has an entry listing their wines while each specific bottle has a tasting note and recommendations from the Le Guide Hachette des Vins, Parker and other writers.
Plenty of interesting wines, backed up by a knowledgeable and passionate manager.
