And when we say, 'elite cru classé estate', we mean it. Its just that we cant disclose which one. That's how we keep the price so low.
Six wines supplied in a Wooden Gift Box.
Saint-Julien 2021
Another very pretty, expressive 2021 with pronounced blackberry and plum aromas and an underlying green-leaf freshness.
Pauillac 2021
A classic Pauillac expressed entirely through estate vineyard fruit and by the same winemaking team as châteaus grand vin label itself.
Saint-Émilion 2022
"...from a stellar château whose winemaker hosted a memorable Spectator Winemaker Lunch in the boardroom last year and whose grand vin sells for just shy of £400 a bottle."
Jonathan Ray, The Spectator
Margaux 2022
"...the latest vintage from this estate, one that Esme Johnstone, à la sungazer, believes is richer and more profound than the 2020 incarnation and already very approachable."
Jonathan Ray, The Spectator
Saint-Estèphe 2021
"...one naughty treat really, of serious excellence. It was hugely enjoyable when we offered the same vintage last year and that enticing juiciness remains, along with that characteristic Saint-Estèphe earthiness."
Jonathan Ray, The Spectator
Sauternes 2016 (37.5cl)
"Its golden hue has deepened, the honey notes, the roasted nuts and candied fruits have become more pronounced and yet that citrus freshness remains."
Jonathan Ray, The Spectator
