Claymore, ‘Skinny Love’ Viognier, 2018

We’ve seen a trend of drinkers looking for low alcohol wines. New World wines tend to be more alcoholic because of the warmer temperatures but Claymore have picked their Viognier grapes early (hence the name on the label First Crush) which means not all the natural grape sugar has fermented into alcohol retaining some natural sweetness. The result: a naturally low alcohol wine through natural wine-making processes.

The Name
Even though we would like to tell you this is low calorie wine the name actually refers to the song Skinny Love by Bon Iver.

Appearance
White straw

Nose
An early harvest wine that shows pretty floral notes of Jasmin and white peach.

Palate
Minimal intervention with this wine ensures that the mouthfeel of this wine is soft, balanced, integrated and appealing. Stone fruit and honeydew melon on the finish are complemented by natural acid and retained natural sugars. An extremely pretty, delicate and approachable wine. Hints of apricot flesh on the finish indicate the variety used for this wine.

Suitable for vegans!

  • Claymore ‘Nirvana’ Reserve Shiraz, 2017

    Add to cart
    £29.95

    This is the icon of legendary Claymore wines portfolio. You will never view a Shiraz in the same way.

    This is a wine of elegance, finely structured and delicately balanced. Big juicy fruits are balanced by savoury, spicy elements in the mouth. Lusciously rich plums, blackberries and liquorice are wrapped in gently charry oak brought into line with crisp acidity.

  • Maxwell, Ellen Street Shiraz, 2012

    £23.95

    COLOUR AND NOSE

    The colour of cherry red. This wine shows aromas of coffee and vanilla bean, violets, glacé fruits and cherries.

    PALATE

    Flavours of plum, chocolate, and blackberry are immediate in the first sip. This Shiraz shows clean minerality from the limestone sub soils and rich earthy characters through the middle palate offering intense concentration of fruit with soft velvety tannin to complete this wine.

    CELLARING POTENTIAL

    Given satisfactory cellaring conditions, it is expected this wine will drink particularly well at 6 to 8 years of age.

    Claymore, ‘Dark Side of the Moon’, Shiraz 2014

    Add to cart
    £16.95

    Made with selected parcels of estate grown fruit from Claymore’s Watervale and Penwortham vineyards, the 2014 Dark Side of the Moon Shiraz proves again the exceptional quality of their low yielding non-irrigated vines.

    Maturation on oak barrels complements juicy dark berry fruit in this full flavoured wine – rich and generous with a soft, lingering finish. You are invited to explore the ‘dark side’ – now or after 6+ years in the cellar.

    Suitable for vegans!
