Chateau Margaux Margaux 1st Growth 2009

A brilliant offering from the Mentzelopoulos family, once again their gifted manager, Paul Pontallier, has produced an uncommonly concentrated, powerful 2009 Chateau Margaux made from 87% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest primarily Merlot with small amounts of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. As with most Medocs, the alcohol here is actually lower (a modest 13.3%) than most of its siblings-. Abundant blueberry, cassis and acacia flower as well as hints of charcoal and forest floor aromas that are almost Burgundian … more

Chateau La Mission Haut-Brion Pessac Leognan 2009

A candidate for the wine of the vintage, the 2009 La Mission-Haut-Brion stood out as one of the most exceptional young wines I had ever tasted from barrel, and its greatness has been confirmed in the bottle. A remarkable effort from the Dillon family, this is another large-scaled La Mission that tips the scales at 15% alcohol. A blend of equal parts Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot (47% of each) and the rest Cabernet Franc, it exhibits an opaque purple color … more

Chateau Leoville Barton St Julien 2nd Growth 2019

84% Cabernet Sauvignon, 16% Merlot

"Like its stablemate Langoa Barton, the 2019 Léoville Barton is a timeless classic, made for patient

connoisseurs. Offering up aromas of blackcurrants, plums, pencil shavings and licorice, it's fullbodied,

deep and concentrated, its deep core of fruit framed by a chassis of rich, powdery tannin

that makes itself felt on the youthfully firm finish. While it's clearly built for the long haul, its

structural seamlessness and mid-palate plenitude mark it out as one of the … more

Château Rieussec Grand Cru Classe 2011 375ml

Beautiful, already intense, golden colour. The nose presents a delicate woodiness followed by notes of honeysuckle and acacia flowers. The palate rapidly becomes full-bodied and generous, mingling notes of residual sugar and freshness. The fruit is discreet but the balance is perfect. The finish is long and lingering, accompanied by a hint of bitterness, that helps to enliven the flavours.
