The Wine Cru

Last week we hosted our first post covid in person wine tasting. Whilst zoom has been good, it was great to put on this event for our client. The brief was simple, great wine with accompanying cheeses.  We enlisted the expertise of I.J.Mellis, who having been informed of the wines, provided us with top class selection and tasting notes. It was a pleasure to present the wines to the clients and their guests. If this is something you feel might benefit your business or you would like to hold a private event, we can offer bespoke packages tailored to your requirements. To find out more email, call or DM. #wine #winelovers #winetasting #cheeseandwine #thewinecru

As we roll on towards 2025 we have added some bottles of Avondo Spanna 1965. An ideal gift for a 60th next year!🎁 Spanna is the local name for Nebbiolo which is one of the grape varieties that produces long lived wines. 👏 We also came across a couple of German sweet wines from the 1989 vintage. One a Riesling the other a Gewürztraminer.🍇 Very excited to have added a 1970 Chateau Latour. One of the best Bordeaux wines and possibly the best wine of the vintage.🍷 Link to the wines 👇 https://bit.ly/4f9caAi

About last night.... A big thankyou to everyone who joined us last night for our Iberian themed wine and cheese tasting at MJs Brasserie in Clarkston.

We can’t wait to share next years event dates next week so watch this space! Thanks again everyone, you all made our night great fun!

It's all about Bordeaux and Barolo with this weeks additions to the wines we offer.🍷 A first growth in the shape of Chateau Margaux 1969 and two Haut Medoc wines. Both traditional clarets and one, Chateau Cissac, has long been a favourite of The Wine Cru. The second is Chateau Maucalliou from the excellent 2000 vintage.👏 The tow Brolo's are from 1968 and 1969. Both vintages were better in Italy than in the wine growing regions and with the Nebbiolo grape renowned for long ageing, these could be a treat.🍇 Link 🔗on this page to take you straight to the website.

From France to New Zealand, Spain to Australia and Germany! Some fabulous wines have been added to our website.👏 We have Chateau Giscours from the 1959 vintage. Considered by some to be the last great vintage before the modern era. Certainly the best post war vintage at the time.🍇 Also on the venerable side a lovely looking bottle of 1973 Louis Latour Beaune. the colour is still bright and inviting!🍷 A rare late harvest sweet wine from Hunters in New Zealand. Rare as its made from the Chardonnay grape, which is seldom used for sweet wines. Link 🔗on this page to view and buy any of these! #thewinecru #wineonline #winedelivery #southsidewineclub

Another happy customer at one of our recent wine tastings. Thank you Fee for your lovely review. Our final event of 2024 is sold out but new 2025 dates coming soon...watch this space. #southsidewineclubuk #southsidewineclub #glasgowwinelovers

This week some of our additions are a little scruffy in appearance having come from very damp cellars. great for the wine, but not so good for the labels. 🍷 Wines from France, Italy, USA and Lebanon. A couple of the vintages will make good birthday or anniversary gifts for 40 and 50 year olds🎁 A very rare 1977 Ridge Monte Bello from Californian is possibly the stand out, if I had to pick one. Ridge was and still is a pioneer of Californian wines. If you're a fan of sweet wines then we have a 1983 Chateau Bastor Lamontage from Sauternes. This was in fact the first Sauternes I ever tasted! Malbec lovers should look to the Cahors where the grape is called Cot🍇 Following the link 🔗on this page to view and buy any of these wines! #thewinecru #wineonline #winedelivery
