This Beaumes de Venise 'Vielle Vignes' cuvée from Domaine de Durban is a wonderful, life-affirming Southern Rhône red wine with enticing garrigue berry and spice aromas and a complex palate of dark autumnal fruit with warming tannins.
Banyuls 'Réserva' is a sweet, red wine - a classic blend of Grenache Noir, Grenache Gris and Carignan. It has a spicy, dried fruit, pluminess, rather like a tawny port.
