BORDEAUX WHITE

LE GRAND VERDUS BLANC
Wine Spectator- Offers apple and lemon notes, with cream and pear as well. Medium-bodied, with celery and green apple flavours.
A fresh, clean Sauvignon-based white.

CHATEAU CHARRON
'ACACIA' Blanc
Cotes de Blaye
This is a lovely easy drinking white, which can be enjoyed by itself or with light meals - a great Terrace wine!

BORDEAUX RED

LE GRAND VERDUS
Bordeaux Superieur
Wine Spectator- Shows concentrated blackberry and tobacco character on the nose and palate. Full and chewy.

LE GRAND VERDUS RESERVE
Bordeaux Superieur
Wine Spectator- Very clean and pure blackberry and vanilla on the nose and palate. Medium-bodied, with soft tannins and a medium finish.

CHATEAU PEYREDOULLE
MAIN-CRIQUAU Rouge
Cotes de Blaye
A full bodied red from a great fruit-driven vintage!
Nice by itself, or with a light meal of cheese.

GRANDS MARECHAUX
Cotes de Blaye
RP - An excellent wine, a blend of 70% Merlot with the balance split between Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. Has a medium deep ruby colour and a sweet nose of black cherry liqueur intermixed with liquorice, spice box, dried herbs, and earth. Spicy, medium-bodied, and tasty.

CHATEAU PEYCHAUD
MAISONNEUVE Rouge
Cotes de Bourg
A very good value red , with plenty of body and structure.
2004 is a classic year, which is drinking well now; lovely with red meats.

BALESTARD
St Emilion
RP - Revealing complex aromas of coffee-infused black cherry and berry fruit, it is a serious effort from one of the finest generic Bordeaux that money can buy.

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 wont be disappointed.

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.

CLOS BADON - Thunevin
St Emilion
RP - This is a sexy, ripe, low acid, modern-style St.-Emilion offering notes of savoury, lush, concentrated black fruits, smoke, leather, and coffee.

POUJEAUX
Moulis
Wine Spectator -  Sweet blackberry, sugared coffee and hints of fresh mint. Full-to-medium body, with silky tannins and a medium finish.

LA LAGUNE
Haut Medoc
RP - A sleeper of the vintage, this sexy, charming, Burgundian-styled wine offers fleshy black cherry notes intermixed with camphor, flowers, and pain grille. Supple tannin, velvety texture, and luscious aromatics as well as flavours result in an alluring claret.

LA LAGUNE
Haut Medoc
RP - This is the finest wine made at this estate since 1982, and possibly the greatest La Lagune of all time. Its dense ruby/purple colour is followed by an exquisite bouquet of spice box, incense, sweet unsmoked cigar tobacco, black cherry liqueur, forest floor, and subtle toasty oak. Reminiscent of a Cote de Nuits grand cru blended with a top-notch Bordeaux, this beauty possesses silky tannins, a broad, savoury, expansive mouthfeel, and intrinsic precision as well as elegance. Moreover, this fabulous wine is a relative bargain for the vintage. Seamless and prodigious!
