Full-flavoured, it is a sunny wine produced in a harsh Mediterranean climate. A little miracle of a vintage. Hence it's name, le Petit Miracle. Classic GSM Blend. Certified Organic.

1 x Viña Angela Garnacha 2021 (Spain)

AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: Berlin Wine Trophy
AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: Grenache du Monde
AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: Asia Wine Trophy
AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: Gilbert & Gaillard

Bright ruby color appearance and violet hues, the nose has a high average density and significant fruity aromas. The palate is persistent and also fruity, young and expressive.

The wines of Viña Angela are a new find! These wines are exclusive to Black Market and offer wonderful value for money. They get their name from the founder, who baptized the vineyards with the name of his wife (Angela) in 1903. The Angela vineyard is 580 meters above sea level, allowing the grapes to ripen slowly while remaining fresh and pure. Satisfyingly weighty, yet juicy and fresh, this is a moreish smooth as silk Garnacha red.

1 x Villa Blanche Syrah 2021 (France)

AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: Syrah du Monde
AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: Bettane & Desseauve

"What a glorious Syrah this 2021 vintage has produced! It is an intense purple red, with a superbly balanced nose of wild strawberries, blackberries, and laurel, followed by peppermint and fresh coconut. The tannins are supple, melting, and smooth, underpinning the fullness and length of the palate. As in previous years we find the characteristic notes of blackcurrant and blackberry with a finish on notes of cinnamon, lemon verbena and vanilla. Pure sunshine in a bottle, this Syrah nevertheless possesses a tangible freshness typical of northern terroirs. It is one of the best loved wines in our Villa Blanche range" Winemakers notes

"Aromas and flavours of flowers and red cherries, there’s a fine savoury quality with a clay, teracotta quality then red berries and dired wood.
