Over the past few weeks we have a had some wines that have made it off the boat and onto the Virgin Wines website. Here are three of the latest additions to our range which includes a brilliant new bottle from Chile’s expert winemakers De Martino.
De Martino Maipo Valley Enigma 2010
De Martino have many star qualities: the best terroir in Chile and a vision that will see them make the most iconic wines from that land of opportunity. Expansive red fruits & spice on the nose leading to a beautifully focused intensity on the palate – oozing class from top-of-the-range oak barrels – ready now but will age gracefully for 5 years plus.

Stunning bespoke Shiraz from one of South Africa’s most respected winemakers. A must try for fans of boldly flavoured reds – the perfect wine for a traditional South African braai!

Domaine des Trinites Le Pioche 2007
This wine was an eye opener for us, displaying wonderful intensity and charm, saturated with raspberry and cherry richness and yet structured and serious. Delicious with food but perfectly suited to be drunk on its own.
