Wine of the week. Chris Lynch goes to one of our favourite producers Rafael Cambra, and opens his Casalabor, a tinto made with the local variety Arcos. An elegant wine with flavours of red fruits and herbs, that evokes warmer days by the Mediterranean.

I had a great time earlier this month visiting one of the oldest and most traditional bodegas in Jerez de la Frontera. Perhaps less well-known than some of the 'big names', yet the wines and the overall experience was memorable.

A Lynch household staple…bread, milk, Albahra, as the list goes. A lot of wine for the £€$!! @spanishwinecoll.bsky.social🍷 #wine #spain #envinate #🇪🇸
Wine of the week is the Albahra 2023 by Envínate. It’s a wine that almost everyone seems to like. And as @clynch83.bsky.social writes, a success with a guest who describes it as a ‘hip wine’.
