The port of Termoli in Molise sees plenty of fine fresh seafood, & the locals love nothing better than to wash theirs down with cold falanghina. Who are we to argue? This wine really adds some magic to simply prepared, super-fresh fish dishes, such as grilled anchovies, chargrilled squid & clams tossed with garlic & pasta. Di Majo Norante is located to the north of the Gargano in the Marquis Norante of Santa Cristina estate. This estate has been dedicated to the cultivation of vines since the 1800s. Optimal exposure, constant breezes during the summer, excellent soil & sloped valleys create a particularly favourable environment for the production of wine. Golden in colour with sparkling green highlights, followed on the nose by an engrossing bouquet of fresh cut limes, greengages, blossom honey & and sun-baked straw. In the mouth it is full & expressive, mingling an interesting flinty minerality with bitter almond notes, peach skin fragrance & even a nuance of sea salt. ...

At around 1000 metres, the grapes grown by Bodega Norton in Mendoza's Lujan de Cuyo district enjoy an extended ripening season, thanks to the high altitude moderating the hot sun. The increased levels of ultra-violet light this high also intensify colour & tannin. Deep inky red in colour, showing voluptuously sweet & spicy aromas on the nose followed by a big hit of freshly ground black pepper notes. On the palate there is an abundance of juicy blackcurrant flavours, with enough acidity & tannins to balance them out. A long, mouth-watering finish makes for a truly satisfying wine. This wine is drinking very well now & would make a great choice for the winter months. Being Argentine, beef feels like its natural partner, especially rare & lean steaks, but it's also highly versatile & will suit anything from Indian curries to vegetable couscous. ...

At around 1000 metres, the grapes grown by Bodega Norton in Mendoza's Lujan de Cuyo district enjoy an extended ripening season, thanks to the high altitude moderating the hot sun. The increased levels of ultra-violet light this high also intensify colour & tannin. Deep ruby red in colour with a delightful nose of crushed raspberry & cherry aromas intertwined with exotic floral nuances & some savoury, leafy notes. On the palate the fruit is incredibly rich & fleshy, but light enough to not be overbearing. While it is round & juicy, acidity & tannins give good balance, especially after some air. This wine is drinking well now & would be perfectly partnered simply with some good ripe brie & a hunk of French bread. However, it's highly versatile too, & would be great with spicy curries & herby chargrilled Mediterranean meats & vegetables. ...

Finca La Colonia Torront

At around 1000 metres, the grapes grown by Bodega Norton in Mendoza's Lujan de Cuyo district enjoy an extended ripening season, thanks to the high altitude moderating the hot sun. The increased levels of ultra-violet light this high also intensify colour and tannin. Sparkling light green in colour with attractive yellow and gold touches. On the nose it is delightfully fresh, drawing you in with waves of citrus and stone fruit notes and floral scents, particularly rose and jasmine. On the palate it is tinglingly acidic and rich with ripe peach and some tropical fruit flavours. On the finish, tropical fragrances linger. Medals: SWA Bronze Due to its intensity and lushness, Torrontes makes a lively and fun aperitif (keep it cold and let people guess what they're drinking). It also
matches food well. Try creamy, buttery fish dishes or fragrant but not too spicy Thai or Vietnamese dishes.
