The LE26 Collection:
DECEMBER 2026: CONNEXION RED (GRENACHE/MERLOT) – LANGUEDOC, FRANCE
THE WINE: Connexion Red brings together two of France’s most celebrated red grapes. Grenache, a hallmark of the Rhône Valley, meets Merlot, the signature variety of Bordeaux. Dark berry notes lead, supported by subtle plum and raspberry undertones. Gentle spice and soft herbal hints complement the fruit, while smooth tannins and bright acidity create a balanced, approachable finish.
THE REGION: Languedoc’s Mediterranean climate provides warm sunshine balanced by cooling coastal breezes. The region’s limestone and clay soils help retain moisture in the dry landscape, supporting healthy vine growth and concentrated fruit. These favourable conditions allow varieties like Grenache and Merlot to ripen fully while maintaining freshness, producing expressive wines with both richness and balance.
SWEETNESS: DRY || OAK: MEDIUM || BODY: MEDIUM-FULL || ALCOHOL: 13.5%
SIGNATURE FOOD PAIRINGS: Herb-roasted lamb and grilled sausages • Mushroom risotto • Charcuterie board with aged cheeses and fig jam
PRICE: $227.75 On-Premise | $173.00 Kit-Only
JANUARY 2027: CONNEXION WHITE (ROUSSANNE/MARSANNE/VIOGNIER) – LANGUEDOC, FRANCE
THE WINE: The name “Connexion” reflects the harmony created when three of the Rhône Valley’s classic white grapes come together in one blend. Roussanne, Marsanne, and Viognier have been partnered in southern France for centuries, each contributing its own unique character. Notes of stone fruit and citrus lead the palate, with peach, apricot, and hints of nectarine. Subtle floral aromas and gentle honeyed richness add complexity, while soft acidity carries through to a smooth, rounded finish.
THE REGION: Languedoc’s Mediterranean climate provides abundant sunshine balanced by cooling coastal breezes. Limestone and clay soils help retain moisture in the dry landscape, allowing vines to thrive while concentrating flavour in the fruit. These conditions support expressive white wines, where Rhône varieties develop ripe stone fruit character while maintaining freshness and balance.
SWEETNESS: DRY || OAK: NONE || BODY: MEDIUM || ALCOHOL: 12.5%
SIGNATURE FOOD PAIRINGS: Herb-roasted chicken • Grilled seafood topped with fresh parsley • Lemon ricotta spaghetti with roasted vegetables
PRICE: $227.75 On-Premise | $173.00 Kit-Only
FEBRUARY 2027: MILAGRO (CABERNET/CARMENÈRE/MERLOT/SYRAH) – MAIPO, CHILE
THE WINE: This expressive Chilean blend brings together four classic red varieties, each contributing its own character to the finished product. Cabernet Sauvignon provides structure, Carmenère adds depth and subtle spice, while Merlot contributes softness, and Syrah lends richness and notes of dark fruit. Black and red berry flavours are joined by cherry and tart plum notes. Underlying oak, bright acidity, and polished tannins result in a smooth, balanced finish.
THE REGION: The Maipo Valley is one of Chile’s most celebrated wine regions, known for its warm days and pleasant breezes from the nearby Andes. Abundant sunshine and well-drained alluvial soils allow grapes to ripen while maintaining freshness. These conditions produce concentrated grapes perfect for crafting balanced wines, making Maipo an ideal home for expressive red blends.
SWEETNESS: DRY || OAK: MEDIUM || BODY: MEDIUM-FULL || ALCOHOL: 14%
SIGNATURE FOOD PAIRINGS: Grilled steak • Slow-braised beef short ribs • BBQ beef brisket and four-cheese macaroni
PRICE: $227.75 On-Premise | $173.00 Kit-Only
MARCH 2027: SYNERGY (SEMILLON/GEWÜRZTRAMINER) – RIVERLAND, AUSTRALIA
THE WINE: This Australian blend brings together two distinct varietals — Sémillon’s structure and Gewürztraminer’s expressive aromatics — creating an approachable, balanced wine. Aromatic notes of lychee, white peach, and citrus blossom are interwoven with subtle spice and floral hints, adding depth and complexity. Crisp acidity balances a silky texture, leading to a refreshingly satisfying finish.
This year’s Limited Edition lineup does not have an off-dry (sweet) offering. Although a dry wine, this Synergy blend is suitable for sweetening which can be done to taste at bottling.
THE REGION: Riverland, in South Australia, offers warm, sunny days tempered by cooler nights, producing grapes with concentrated fruit and bright natural acidity. Sandy loam and alluvial soils retain just enough moisture to support steady vine growth, allowing the grapes to fully ripen while maintaining freshness. These conditions create expressive white wines that are aromatic, balanced, and vibrant.
SWEETNESS: DRY || OAK: NONE || BODY: MEDIUM || ALCOHOL: 13%
SIGNATURE FOOD PAIRINGS: Fresh linguine with clams • Vermicelli rice noodle salad with lemongrass chicken • Soft cheese and olive oil crostini
PRICE: $227.75 On-Premise | $173 .00 Kit-Only
APRIL 2027: AMICI (MONTEPULCIANO/AGLIANICO/SANGIOVESE) WITH GRAPE SKINS – ITALY
THE WINE: This Italian red blend brings together several of Italy’s celebrated grapes—Montepulciano, Aglianico, and Sangiovese — creating a wine that is harmonious and expressive. Dark, ripe fruit flavors are complemented by bright cherry notes, while savory and herbal nuances add depth. Firm tannins and medium acidity provide structure, and the generous use of oak lends a rich, layered character, resulting in a full-bodied yet balanced wine.
THE REGION: Italy’s diverse wine regions allow each grape to express its unique character. From the rolling hills of central Italy to the sun-soaked south, soils rich in clay and limestone support healthy vines. Warm days and cooler nights help preserve acidity and balance, making the country renowned for producing structured, aromatic red blends.
SWEETNESS: DRY || OAK: HEAVY || BODY: FULL || ALCOHOL: 14%
SIGNATURE FOOD PAIRINGS: Spaghetti bolognese with Parmigiano-Reggiano • Roast chicken with fresh garlic and herbs • Grilled zucchini and peppers
PRICE: $240.75 On-Premise | $186.00 Kit-Only

What is LE?
Each year Winexpert produces a limited quantity of five fabulous and unique varieties from around the world that are released monthly from December through April. LE – or Limited Edition – wines vary year to year and can be one or a combination of the following: unique blends, hot industry trends, highly sought after regions/vineyards; and scarce or hard to obtain grapes/juice. One thing remains from one year to the next, LE collections always produce wine of superior quality.
LE vintages are available only during the month of their release. They are limited in supply and are so immensely popular that they can be acquired by pre-order only. The LE program has built a reputation of delivering exceptional, award-winning wines year after year. This speaks to the high quality wines that these very special wine kits produce and that’s why LE continues to be the biggest most successful limited release brand. Each and every year, LE wines are awarded medals at the WineMaker International Amateur Wine Competition; a testament to the superior quality of the LE program. The LE26 collection will continue this tradition; so be sure to make your wine cellar an award-winning one. Contact Just Fine Wine for any further information or to place your pre-order today.
