The latest Wine of the Week is…
Calusari, Pinot Noir, Romania 2010 £5.95
This is a smooth pinot with plenty of flavour including berry fruit on the palate. Not too heavy and with a velvety finish, Calusari is a good wine to accompany game or spicy foods.
The Calusari, an historical Romanian fraternal sect, were believed to be able to cure the victims of fairies, with their magical flying dance called the Calus.
Martin’s comment: “Calusari is a lovely wine and good value for this price point. Being a screw top it’s a good mid week wine. Because Romania and other countries in this region don’t have such a widespread reputation as yet, you get more for your money, so well worth a try.”
