We can't tell you the name of this wine. It's a secret. But we can tell you it's from a brilliant new winery that won 16 major awards for its first vintage (this is the second). This is a voluptuous, chocolately, powerhouse of a wine from one of Chile's rising winestars. We can't tell you who he is because he's a proud man used to having his name on very expensive wines (he just made too much of this one last year). Get it while you can, you won't see it at this price again.

Rustenberg's red wines are rated as some of the best South Africa has to offer. The Merriman has often been praised for its wonderful blackcurrant fruit, spicy peppery kick and generous dose of creamy oak.

We were recently delighted by the powers of Aconcagua to make inky, dense and almost Mediterranean style wines. And just when we thought the concentration of fruit couldn't get any better, our friends whipped out the 'reserve' range. Wow.

This deeply concentrated beauty trounced 399 rivals at the first Annual Wines of Chile Awards to emerge as best in show. It's a fine pedigree, blending Merlot, Carmenere and Cabernet to create a smooth, deeply concentrated wine that's the dog's b****cks with Sunday roasts.

Alvaro Espinosa is the passion behind these wines and we love him for it. He doesn't care at all that his wines can carry an organic sticker, preferring to believe that organics and sustainability simply make the best wine (without harming the environment). It's win win viticulture.

This is Cesar Morales' top-drawer effort and is a whopping blend that we bagged off right away. You won't find this anywhere else and, what's more, if you don't buy it.. we will.

From the award-winning De Martino winery comes their latest success. The 347 Vineyard range is exactly what the name suggests. Winemaker extraordinaire, Marcelo Retamal, was hired by the De Martino family to make the best wine in Chile. And to get it right, he religiously tested 347 variety and location combinations before deciding he'd found perfection. The result is a deliciously fruity wine that Bordeaux would be proud to have produced, with their 400-year history. Instead Marcelo managed it in 11!

Named for the winds which blow through the valleys, Domaine Chiroble lies in the heart of the Armenac region on calcium-rich sun-dappled soils. We approached them for a really drinkable wine and they made us the Java Rouge. It's ripe, juicy and moreish and the perfect antidote to all the blockbusting undrinkables flooding the shelves for the last 15 years. Designed to drink with friends, savouring the moment, and the wine.

These guys are on the shining path, having been totally enlightened by Alvaro Espinosa in all things organic and sustainable. Walking round these vineyards is like visiting a zoological park, it is so teeming with wildlife! The wines, like the environment are about equilibrium.
