Here are some of the product highlights of the Wine Fiesta.

♦ Legaris Roble 750ml from Spain. This is an intense purply red with violet hues. It has intense aromas of fresh red berries together with hints of vanilla from ageing in oak. A fruit-driven, balanced red wine with a long finish.

The usual price is $48, but it is now on offer for $36, and $33.12 for JWC members.

♦ Finca-Montalvillo Crianza Rioja 750ml from Spain is usually priced at $45, but it is now on offer for $34, and $31.28 for JWC members.

This is layered with berries, dark chocolate and coffee; bold and indulgent with a long succulent finish.

♦ Domaine de L’amandine Côtes du Rhône Villages Rouge 750ml from France is usually priced at $39.90, but it is now on offer for $31, and $28.52 for JWC members.

A perfumed blend of equal parts Grenache and Syrah matured in cement, this full bodied but exhilarating red highlights blackberry and plum flavors accented by sprays of stony, salty minerality. It’s a blossomy, thirst-quenching sip marked by fine, easing tannins.
