HUGH HAMILTON AGENT PROVOCATEUR 2024

From Hugh Hamilton’s Dark Arts range, Agent Provocateur is all about intentional serendipity — a modern blend that’s built with purpose, but always with a little surprise. Five years in, Hugh knows exactly what “The Agent” should feel like… even if the grapes shift slightly each year to get there.

The concept is simple: each component brings its own strong character, like primary colours — then the final blend creates something more complex than the parts on their own. The result is a wine that’s all perfume and energy: vivid, aromatic and bright, with a lingering, compote-like palate that stays light on its feet despite all that intensity.

A bottle for people who like aromatic reds, modern blends, and wines that refuse to behave like they’re “supposed to”.
