“Recently I’ve written about six really interesting wines, from weird and wonderful places around the world. They're all down to their last bottles, and all worth a ‘last hurrah’. So I’ve had them put into this mixed case at a sacrificial bin end price. Reds include a Gran Reserva Syrah from Chile’s remote Atacama valley, a hugely popular blend from three appellations around Hermitage, and a special Argentinian Malbec. In white, there’s a Cabernet Sauvignon BLANC – yep, a white made from red grapes – plus something really delicious made from a ‘new’ white grape variety, and a sparkling wine from the most unlikely place; Spain’s sun-baked La Mancha. Do order, if we sell out it will encourage me to do this again sometime!” – Tony Laithwaite.
