Produttori di Manduria, Acid Crab, Puglia, Italy - Produttori di Manduria is a cooperative winery founded in 1932 but while it is historic it also very forward thinking, a shining light of how coops can be run for the benefit of everyone - its members, its customers and in this case the planet, farming beyond organic and using sustainable processes throughout the vineyards and winery.

The Acid Crab is a new wine from the coop, exploring reds beyond Primitivo... self dubbing as an unconventional take on one of the most ancient and famous Puglian grapes, Negroamaro - suitable summer drinking slightly chilled. It's dark and spicy with earthy notes of mediterranean scrub. Expect dark fruits, pepper and liquorice with velvety tannins. Great with pizza!

Les Artisans Partisans, Corbieres Rouge "Cuvee Alice", Languedoc-Roussillon, France - This wine is produced in collaboration with Chateaux Ollieux Romanis, an historic estate in the heart of Corbieres near to Montseret, owned by the Bories family. The area was utilised by the Romans for olives groves, hence the name. The Artisans Partisans wines are made to reflect the nature of the country, the history of the people, and the traditional grape varieties and farming practices of the region.

This year's vintage of Cuvée Alice sees Syrah taking the dominant role with Carignan and Cinsault supporting bringing more dark fruits and pepperiness into the equation, still super soft and generous. Ideal with a warming Autumn stew.
