    RED WINE of the week

    Vasse Felix, Cabernet-Merlot, Margaret River, Western Australia 2008 Young, fresh and packed with flavour, this is an immediately rewarding wine. It shows some chocolatey tones, but the appeal is all about the deliciously concentrated plums, blueberries and blackberries, finely partnered by a delightful, leafy edge. (16.5 points) £10.99 Charles Hennings, W Sussex (01798 872485), Majestic Warehouses (01923 298200), Nidderdale Wines, N Yorks (01423 711703), Premier Vintners, London (020 7978 4047), Tanners branches (01743 234500), The Wine Shed, Somerset (01984 624 641/www.wine-shed.co.uk)

    WHITE WINE of the week

    Martin Codax, Mara Martin, Godello, Monterrei, Spain 2008 Monterrei is a Galician DO that nudges up against the Portuguese border. This Godello is an intense, mouthwatering wine that would be a great food match. Vital and uplifting, it's run through with lovely minerality, complemented by tasty green fruit, apples and a hint of stone fruit on the finish. (16 points) £8.99 Cooden Cellars, Sussex (01323 649663), Richard Granger, Newcastle (0191 281 5000), Hedley Wright, Herts (01279 465818), Philglas & Swiggot, SW11 (020 7924 4494), www.rannochscott.co.uk, Selfridges, W1 (020 7318 2375), Whole Foods Market (020 7368 4500)
