Proprietor's Reserve 2006 hits the UK

O’Vineyards Proprietor’s Reserve 2006 finally made its way to households across the UK.  One of my favorite things about Naked Wines is the rabid devotion and excitedness of the customers over there.  We get instant updates about the wine being delivered and it seems to never take more than a day for somebody to pop open a bottle and let us know how well it traveled.

Naked Wines customers are Fast

Woo hoooooo…… the O’Vineyards Proprietors Reserve 2006 Marketplace offering arrived today.

Now I just need to make up a special occasion so that I can drink it.

Is Thursday a special enough occasion?

Darren confirmed the wine has been delivered at their home at 17:51 on the 18th.  I wonder how long it will be before somebody opens a bottle. Less than 3 hours later Trevor is already reviewing the wine online:

Wonderful nose , deep colour and a complexity that justifies the price. A perfect amount of tannin just enough to make it interesting. A mouthful of fruit that goes on and on. I like it in other words.

Naked Wines customers are devoted

And the reviews keep coming in!  We’ll keep hearing from them about how the wine is evolving and meeting their needs.  Do their friends like it?  Do their kids like it?  How does it compare to other wines from O’Vineyards or other vintages of Reserve.  We get all this feedback for free and it helps us make better wines to better please our best customers.

Naked Wines customers are the best customers in the world.

PS – It took Darren a few days to open that bottle, but he immediately let us know how it went!

Not for the feint of heart.

It’s a deeply heady blend, packed with ripe fruits and carrying an undertone of floral perfume.

This intensity, coupled with a slightly dry finish might make it just too full-on for some to drink on it’s own. But, all of these characteristics make it a perfect match for a nicely rare steak.

Top drawer again O’Connells…… and I have 5 more bottles to indulge in.

  1. Best by GPS.
    Follow the signs to Mazamet/ Villemoustaussou using the D118. At the end of the last straight part of D118, you will come to a roundabout with the Dyneff gas station.
  2. Take the exit towards Pennautier. Continue 500m to a small roundabout and go straight over.
  3. Look out for the second road on your right, Avenue des Cévennes which curves up hill (about 1km) to Avenue de la Montagne Noire on the left.
  4. At the last juction, bear left. the road sign “Ave de la Montagne Noire” (confusing as it seems to show a right turn)
  5. After another 500m you will see our red brick color building in the middle of the vines.
