Saint Emilion

Chateau Bel Air, Puisseguin,

Gorgeously deep ruby colour, the wine boasts red fruit and a supple, rounded mouthfeel, and will hit its peak after 2-3 years in bottle. A classic Saint Emilion.

Deep in colour and full-bodied, this is a supple and accessible wine, with dark, berried fruit and spice, supported by fine-grained tannins. Long and refined on the finish.

This is very sexy on the nose, with plenty going on and lots of freshness on the palate, despite the very ripe Merlot. This is a very well made and serious wine, and will be great value for money with a lovely long finish.

Aromas of ripe dark fruit and oak on the nose are followed by rich, intensely ripe, plummy fruit on the palate. Fresh core acidity keeps it vibrant and alive and this is all supported by a taught tannin structure. All in all a great example of how Merlot excels in Lalande de Pomerol

This vintage has perfect poise and balance and a great maturity, reflecting the quality of the fruit. With an incredible freshness and aromatic power, this is a truly great vintage. Incredible aromatic intensity in the nose, with dark berries (blackcurrant), liquorice and mineral notes underpinned by harmonious woody aromas. Powerful, voluptuous yet fresh on the palate, with tannins which are robu…

Hints of ripe plums and damsons on the nose and on the palate. It is rich and velvety, with soft tannin and a long elegant finish.

Deep red in colour, La Croix Bonneau 2016 is a blend of 95% Merlot, which gives spice, damson fruit and cassis aromas, plus 5% Cabernet Franc to give firm tannins and a touch of red berry flavour on the palate. Ageing in top quality French oak barrels has given a complex, mellow, long finish without overpowering the juiciness of the Merlot fruit.

Ripe and rounded with plum, bramble jelly and blackcurrant fruit. Rounded and smooth, it is medium to full bodied with soft tannins and a long, fresh finish.

This wine has flavours of ripe grapes and liquorice, with ripe tannins.

Beautifully developed garnet-red in colour. Shows a very ripe nose of concentrated fruits of the forest and a dense palate reminiscent of black cherries and chocolate with pretty notes of liquorice and eucalyptus. The typicaly bordelaise structure is flexible, with soft, rounded tannins that bring a balance and add length to the palate which finishes dry and clean.

This wine is a deep ruby red in colour, with alluring aromas of ripe red cherry, cassis and a hint of liquorice. The palate is full-bodied with silky, ripe tannins. Concentrated flavours of ripe red fruits, tobacco and graphite are balanced by a lifted acidity.

Chateau Puy Rigaudis is a 100% Merlot wine. Purple-tinged dress, deep, clear and bright. Aromas of red and black ripe fruits and spices nose. Palate elegant, with notes of ripe fruits, powerful and velvety tannins. Will be appreciated with a side of beef, duck stew with mushrooms, vegetables terrines, goat cheese with figs.

Chateau Rol Valentin, St Emilion Grand Cru,

Ruby colour, dense and deep with purple reflections. Elegant and expressive bouquet Red and black crystallized fruits, toast and vanilla with a touch of sweet spices. Fleshy and round with velvety tannins.

Bright ruby in colour with garnet hints, this wine opens with a bouquet full of red fruit comp�te and sweet spice. The full-bodied mouth feel is well structured with great balance between fruit character and hints of oak. Elegantly textured with supple tannins, it ends with a fresh, fruity finish.

Consistently amongst the best of the Union de St Emilions estates, this is richly suave and satisfying with lovely fruit along with fine, savoury tannins.

What a nose. The purity of fruit is wonderful. Cherries, blackberries and flowers. Medium to full body, and the wine just rolls off the palate. Silky and beautifully textured. Drink in 2020 but already a beauty. Second wine of Larcis Ducasse.
