Join Honest Grapes and 67 Pall Mall for our annual Icons Releases - Beyond Bordeaux tasting.

The campaign we refer to simply as “Icons” is based around wines offered by Bordeaux-based negotiants in September and early October, but also includes other Autumn releases direct from iconic estates. Originally focussed on Napa estates it broadened out to include Tuscany and the Americas more generally, with wines often based on Bordeaux varieties – which would make sense given the negociants' experience and networks. However as more wines are added each year the offering becomes more complex – with an increasingly diverse array of styles and producers from as far afield as Jerez, Hungary, Barolo, Bandol, Austria and Etna joining the ranks.  Despite the diversity of wines on offer, like the year's other main campaigns, we continue to focus on offering only the most exciting and best value releases.

Samples are arriving daily, including a few back vintages... we expect to have at least 35 wines on show – here are just a few highlights of what promises to be another superb tasting!
