(2025) A Blanc de Blancs dominated by Chardonnay, but I believe with Parellada and Xarel·lo also in the blend, this vintage, organic Cava is Brut but really quite dry and very Blanc de Blancs in character. You may or may not like the 'Gaudí-inspired' bottle, but the stuff inside is really very fine. It has a little of the custard and herbs note that the traditional grapes seem to always give to Cava for me, but the precise, lemony drive of the palate is refreshing and, as I say, bone-dry with fish and seafood-friendly credentials. On offer at £15 at time of review.

(2025) From the estate’s oldest vines, planted at high altitude, this is matured for 11 months in French oak. It's a lightly buttery and creamy style of Chardonnay, subtly draped in oak, with citrus and stone fruits and a wisp of something flinty. In the mouth it is textured and creamy, the background of nutty, lightly toasty oak is there, plenty of vivacious acidity and a juicy finish of good length.

(2025) A small proportion of Mazuelo and Cabernet Sauvignon join the Tempranillo in this full-bodied and ripe Spanish red from the banks of the Duero. We're at the chocolaty, ripe, dense black-fruited end of the red wine spectrum here, all gloss and polish and depth of flavour. The silky plum, blackcurrant and hint of balsamic on the nose flow onto the palate, which has velvet texture and a raft of creamy oak and tannin supporting the supple, expansive fruit. Hedonistic and delicious of it's big and bountiful style.

(2025) From a cooperative of 192 vine growers in Navarra, grapes come exclusively from high-altitude vineyards in the foothills of the Pyrenees. Most notably, this weighs in with just 10.5% alcohol which could be useful on occasions.

(2025) A zero dosage sparkling Albariño, that is bone-dry and energising with its salty, briny, lemony, fruut and core of sheer acidity. A multi-vintage blend, fermented with indigenous yeasts, it remains saline and mouth-watering in a tightly-wound format. This would work with seafood particularly well.

(2025) Since last tasted in 2023, I get even more of the flinty character that was so attractive first time round, and still it is beautifully done. From some of the highest vineyards of the Hills at 520 - 540 metres, the fruit from 25-year-old vines and is fermented with wild yeast in barriques and puncheons of French oak, 20% new. There is still almond and oatmeal creaminess over a nutty apple fruit and a sense of gentleness. In the mouth lemony and bright, the focus is good in a medium-bodied format where the crisp acid defines the finish.

(2025) Like its Merlot partner also tasted, a dontation for every bottle sold of this wine from La Mancha in Spain goes to the Born Free Foundation, the animal conservation charity. From the heat of southern Spain yet with only 11.5% alcohol this has obviously been picked early, and the nose is subtle for the variety, with stone fruit and a gentle mintiness, leading on to a flavourful palate, with ripe fruit that does not enter the overtly tropical spectrum, but stays juicy and poised with balanced acidity.

(2025) A wine from El Escocés Volante, aka Scottish winemaker Norrel Robertson MW, who has spent over two decades making some really interesting wines in Spain. Made from the seldom seen Albilla (aka Albillo), it is unoaked but spent 12 months on the lees.  There's an interesting perfume here, a little squeak of elderflower, but something bon-bon like and floral too, almost a pineapple chunk brightness. In the mouth this has a surprisingly slippery and viscose texture, a real saline aspect, the fruit stays focused on preserved lemon and hints of riper stone fruits into a well-balanced, dry finish.

(2025) What a lovely Pinot from the original cool climate Valley of Chile, Casablanca. After foot treading it is vinified in open-topped oak tanks and aged in French oak foudres and a small percentage of barriques, for 12 months. Pale and attractive in colour. The nose has an array of classic Pinot aromas: truffle and mushroom, ripe berry fruit, hints of damp undergrowth and a touch of roasting chestnut. In the mouth, this is similarly impressive, with great balance of fruit, tannin and orangey acid, all in an authentically Pinot expression, gently inviting yet with a certain strictness. Most impressive at the price. Watch the video for more information.

(2025) Treixadura is a classic white grape of Bierzo in Galicia, next door to the better known Rías Baixas. There's a golden hue to this 2021 example, and honeyed notes to the soft peachy fruit. In the mouth peaches and oranges combine, the acidity a touch softer than in a typical Albariño, but it has a fleshier and slightly plumper feel that is deliciously drinkable and yet still fresh and balanced. Angels price is £14.99
