Wine Cellar Weekly: Standout 95-point Chenin, hallowed Helderberg vintage Cabernet & more

For Tour de France fans, we have a special wine which commemorates one of Britain’s greatest riders and the pain and glory this race brings. We're also excited to share with you the 2003, 2006 and 2009 Atlo Cabernets which offer everything we love about mature Cabernet Sauvignon. From the Château Rayas stable, in the Southern Rhône, we’ve finally received the new shipment of the characterful and delicious Tours Vaucluse Rouge 2016. If you're looking for incredible value, the 95-point Laibach Sur Lie Chenin is a must.

We're pleased to inform you that after months of waiting, our Gabriel-Glas stemware is back in stock. Replace your broken glasses, add a decanter to your existing collection or send someone an excellent gift.

Tom and the Peloton, Ventoux Rouge 2017
R 260 per bottle

The limited Tom and the Peloton Ventoux Rouge 2017 is a wine for Rhône lovers and cycling fanatics alike. Produced by Domaine des Anges, the charming blend of Syrah and Grenache pays homage to Tom Simpson – one of Britain’s greatest cyclists who sadly died during his ascent of Mont Ventoux during the 1967 Tour de France. A portion of the proceeds of each bottle sold is donated to the Simpson family to help maintain the memorial on the route of the Tour de France. This Ventoux Rouge offers wonderful red fruit density mingled together with pepper spice and dried herbs to deliver a juicy yet structured wine.

Alto: Vintage Cabernets from the hallowed Helderberg
From R 650 per bottle

Alto has an incredible red wine production heritage with its first bottlings dating back to 1920! The Cabernets on offer today, from this incredible terroir on the Helderberg, are drinking beautifully and will offer drinking pleasure for years to come. Under-priced when compared to similar Cabernets from Stellenbosch, these wines are a fantastic example of vintage Cabernet. When ordered by the case (6 x 750ml), the wines will come packed in their original wooden Alto cases.

Laibach, Chenin Blanc Sur Lie 2020
R 130 per bottle

The Sur Lie Chenin Blanc from Laibach is an absolute standout Stellenbosch Chenin in terms of value – coming in at R 130. 'It’s typically a striking wine, the 2020 particularly so,' wrote Christian Eedes, deservingly scoring it 95 points! It's a Wine Cellar staff favourite and, with leesy complexity, it’s the perfect wine to accompany any of your midweek dinners.

Tours, Vin de Pays Vaucluse Rouge 2016
R 415 per bottle

Tours Vaucluse Rouge 2016 comes from the family estate of Emmanuel Reynaud, of Château Rayas fame, a living legend in the Southern Rhône. It’s a radical wine which will take you on a journey, and absolutely smashes it with food. This red blend of various varieties, including Grenache, Cinsault, Counoise, Merlot, and Syrah, shows red and black berries, spices, herbes de provence, noticeable but fine tannins and a vibrant acidity. These wines are characterful and delicious, portraying traditional winemaking and are just impossible to resist.
