Value!

CHATEAU BEAUSEJOUR
CLOS L'EGLISE
St Emilion

A lovely warm full bodied St Emilion from an excellent fruit driven vintage.
This wine is really very fine, and can be had with cheese, white meats and lamb - you won't be disappointed.

FONBEL
St Emilion

RP - Made by Ausone’s proprietor, Alain Vauthier, this attractive, round, pretty wine is soft and generous, with loads of blueberry and raspberry fruit as well as hints of incense and crushed rock. It should drink well for a decade or more.

FONBEL
St Emilion

RP - A dark ruby/purple color is accompanied by sweet aromas of black cherries, black currants, incense, smoke, and damp earth. This medium-bodied St.-Emilion reveals excellent depth, ripeness, freshness, and vibrancy as well as velvety tannins.

FONBEL
St Emilion

RP - Alain Vauthier, who owns this small estate, has been ratcheting up the level of quality at Fonbel just as he has at his more well-known properties, Ausone and Moulin St.-Georges

BERNADOTTE
Haut Medoc

RP - The finest La Bernadotte made to date, this 2009 is an undeniable sleeper of the vintage. Composed of 47% Cabernet Sauvignon, 47% Merlot, and the rest Petit Verdot, it reveals a dense purple color along with a big, sweet kiss of black cherries, black currants, charcoal, and spice. With layers of fruit, decent acidity, freshness, and precision, and an opulent, fleshy, succulent style, it should drink easily for a decade or more

MARSAU
Cotes de Francs

RP - This beautiful Merlot-dominated Cotes de Franc exhibits a deep ruby/purple colour as well as a sweet perfume of black raspberries, cherries, and currants, good freshness, ripe tannin, and a medium-bodied, pure mid-palate as well as finish.

MONTLANDRIE
Cotes de Castillon

RP - A blend of 75% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Franc, this property was recently acquired by the obsessive perfectionist owner of l’Eglise Clinet, Denis Durantou. Ripe black cherry and black currant fruit is found in this voluptuous, lush, full-bodied, pure wine.

COLOMBIER MONPELOU
Pauillac

RP - This dense ruby-coloured 2000 exhibits good purity in addition to sweet black currant fruit and hint of tobacco and spice box. Fine ripeness and medium body are offered in a style that should provide pleasant drinking.

A favourite "drinker" of ours; lovely and round, good fruit, hard to put down!

Please try a bottle.
