Visoottiviseth (Thailand).Savoury and fruity with good concentration, Eradus 2009, Marlborough (pounds 13.27, www.corneyandbarrow.com) is deceivingly rich for such a pale cherry red. Fragrant with firm tannins and a long finish, this pinot would work just as well with a meaty fish as it would teamed with pan fried duck breast and a yummy sauce.From one of the region's leading wineries, Wither Hills is growing a reputation for producing pinot to rival its zesty sauvignon blanc. Try Wither Hills 2009, Marlborough (pounds 9.99 from pounds 12.99, until July 19, Waitrose). Excellent value for money, I recommend snapping up a couple of bottles of this classy wine. Hugely appealing with a floral nose, it's a lively mouthful of jammy, rich fruit with a seasoning of white pepper and a tingle on the finish - a baby sister for cabernet sauvignon fans.The WineTime Bar was also recently featured in a segment on San Diego’s Channel 6 television station.This eye-catching display is the first of its kind for WineTime Bars, which are available in two flavors—Chocolate, Dates & Almonds and Chocolate Raspberry.In the last month the presence of WineTime Bars on the shelves of Whole Foods Markets in southern California has expanded from four to 11 stores—Hillcrest, San Diego; La Jolla; Tustin; Huntington Beach; Torrance; El Segundo; Laguna Beach; Pasadena (Arroyo); Brentwood, Los Angeles; Venice, Los Angeles; and Encinitas.Try Taste The Difference Penguin Sands 2009, Central Otago (pounds 9.99, Sainsbury's). Earthy and complex with ribbons of sweet brambly fruit, a hint of cherry sherbet and a spicy kick on the dry finish, it's the perfect wine to sip, savour and ponder over. Another top-shelf offering from the high street, try Finest Central Otago Pinot Noir (pounds 10.29, Tesco). It's a light and fruity cherry-red beauty with scented purple fruit, a smack of pepper to give it some edge and a smooth, velvety finish. For pinotphiles who are prepared to reach a little deeper, try Akarua Pinot Noir 2009, Central Otago (pounds 25, Harvey Nichols nationwide). This bright cherry red spills over the tongue and coddles the tastebuds with a silky veil of lip-smacking fruit. Powerful and beautifully balanced, this beguiling wine will delight the most discerning drinker. Further north, Marlborough's flagship grape is sauvignon blanc, but it also produces some fabulously fresh, ruby reds.A foodies delight, these tantalising reds drinks go just as well with salmon as they do with chicken, lamb or roast game - and they're a joy for any wine rack.
