Following last week’s Budget we're pleased to announce the launch of our Spring 2012 Trade Wine List. This year we're trialling the lists release exclusively in electronic format. For our existing customers a copy will be pinging its way to your inbox shortly very shortly. On the off chance you're not already dealing with us or you fear your copy may have got lost in cyber space please send an email to sales@patriarchewines.com and we'll get one sent straight away.

In keeping with our pledge to follow the Harpers Merchants Best Practice Guidelines we have just received our first shipment of Mount Riley’s new Limited Release range.

The wines from Western Australia are more en vogue than ever so our antipodean portfolio review wouldn’t have been complete without the addition of Domaines & Vineyards. If it’s a winery you’ve not come across before its certainly one to look out for, its acclaimed wines will soon be needing a new trophy cabinet if recent plaudits are any indicator

If you don’t know already the climate and landscapes of the Orange region in Australia are pretty perfect for growing wine grapes and the quality of the wines they produce is pretty good too! That’s why we’ve taken on the wines from Logan, a highly acclaimed winery you may already have heard of. Logan is a family owned and operated business with an emphasis on cool climate quality wines from Orange and Mudgee in the Central Ranges of NSW Australia.

Part of our Thorntree range will be presented at the Cape Wine Europe event next Tuesday and Wednesday at the elegant Earl's Court  London, for press and trade from all over Europe, the US and Canada.  

Have you received your copy of our special anniversary edition wine list yet? Officially launched last week, we hope our new Australian, Iberian, and Argentine wineries will keep you and your customers inspired to continue to discover new wine producers and regions.

Logan from Orange in NSW, Australia is produced by the charismatic winemaker and owner Peter Logan and has three ranges with price points to suit all occasions. Domaines & Vineyards from the fashionable Western Australia won’t fail to impress with stylish wines from Pemberton and Margaret River.

Paella, sun, fiestas and siestas … What do you think of when you picture Iberia? Since we revamped our portfolio all we can think about are the wines of Montal in Castile, our new organic winery Quaderna Via from Navarra and Quinta de Cottas from Portugal in the Douro. And as the memories of this summer’s sun, fiesta’s and siestas start to fade we thought we’d shine the spotlight on these Iberian delights to keep you in the holiday mood.
