Excellent article by James Suckling about Argentinian wines this week.
“I have been rating wines from Argentina for many years, and I believe there has never been a better time to be making and drinking wines from this region than now.”
We cannot agree more and we are looking forward to have our Susana Balbo Nosotros 2014 (rated 98 points) soon in stock.

Last Thursday we had the opportunity to present our wines to the Swiss Community in Bangkok at the Lampl Business Center on the 42th floor of Exchange Tower: attractive and fully equipped Meeting Rooms combined with stunning views over the city. A really cool place for a meeting…and a wine tasting afterwards.
For this occasion we selected our best selection of affordable and easy-to-drink labels which included our freshest Lamador reds and whites from Chile; a fruity Australian Shiraz from Cranswick ; a couple of immediate reds from Camino de Chile ; and a pleasant Klippenkop Chenin Blanc that everybody liked.
Contact us if you also want to organize a corporate tasting or a special function with wine. As you can see from the pictures, we have wines and smiles for all the taste: https://www.flickr.com/gp/167953739@N03/Z4e0s9
Finally we got the pictures from The Guide Phuket of our exclusive dinner at Mom Tri’s Wok Kitchen Gallery with Berlucchi wines at the presence of Mr. Franco Ziliani, the President of Berlucchi and creator of Franciacorta wines.
It was a great night of music, art, food and Franciacorta wines, which all matched wonderfully. In the beautiful terrace facing Chalong Bay, we enjoyed a very pleasant Berlucchi ‘61 Franciacorta Brut DOCG as apertivo and together with a well done Parmesan Risotto; lamb chop with Berlucchi ‘61 Franciacorta Brut Nature DOCG was excellent as expected; while Berlucchi ‘61 Franciacorta Brut Rosé DOCG was the perfect ending with Panna Cotta and fresh mango.
A special thanks to Mr. Franco Ziliani and Ms. Ada Pelloni to allow us to disturb their holidays and honor us with their presence; Khun Mom Tri and Mr. Georges Ciret, together with Villa Royale‘s staff for the great work and the beautiful set up; to Luca Cini to be present at the dinner and to be like an Ambassador of Berlucchi wines (and Italian wines in general) in Phuket; and to all the people who attended this night.
What Mr. Ziliani did in Franciacorta starting with the 1961 vintage was simply magic. But what he continues to do all around the world with his wines is even more magical.
All the pictures are available on The Guide Phuket’s website.
The best to way to
celebrate the Chinese New Year 2019 is to get a bottle of The Hedonist,
the wines with the pig in the label.
You can choose between a rich and spicy Shiraz, if
you wish your 2019 to be full of success, big changes and very (bio)dynamic; or
a full-body and stable Cabernet Sauvignon,
for a year rich of good opportunities, sure money and stability in your job and
your family.
We will go for both, to be sure that our 2019 will be a year to remember.
