- Ch La Roche St. Jean Bordeaux Rouge 2011 Product #26807 (In Stock)
-
-
A classic Bordeaux blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (60%) and Merlot (40%). This is a soft, fruit filled, take on Bordeaux that fills your mouth with juicy red currant and black berry fruit accented by a touch of spice. Subtle notes of fresh herb and tobacco keep this anchored in Bordeaux, and there’s just the enough ripe tannin to let it work well at table (but not enough to get in the way of solo sipping).
- Ch La Rame Bordeaux Blanc 2011 Product #26930 (In Stock)
-
-
While most white Bordeaux are a more even blend of Bordeaux's 3 white grapes, this delicious white from Ch La Rame is 95% Sauvignon Blanc with just a touch of Semillon. Its fresh aromas of cut grass and citrus rind are bracing and inviting. On the palate, it's refreshing and has a delicious hint of salinity. Bring on the fish and goat cheese!
- Ch Graville Lacoste Graves 2011 Product #26339 (In Stock)
-
-
A delicious white Bordeaux in an unusual style. Ch Graville-Lacoste's Graves Blanc contains 75-80% Semillon most years, with Sauvignon Blanc and a touch of Muscadelle making up the balance. The aromas are delicate, but inviting - pear skin, fresh hay, and that candle wax/lanolin aroma typical of Semillon. On the palate it's softer and rounder than most white Bordeaux we taste, and it somehow manages to create this roundness without a lot of excess weight. While it's a young wine, it somehow feels a bit more mature and resolved than you'd expect. This would make an absolutely delightful aperitif, and would also be fantastic with mild cheeses or gently spiced Indian food.
- La Fleur D'or Sauternes 2010 375ml Product #26686 (In Stock)
-
-
Classic Sauternes flavors that won't break the bank! The aromas feature candied pineapple and lemon with a hint of creme caramel. Starts off bright and almost tangy before the sweet honey, candied fruit, and creme brulee flavors expand to coat your palate. Bright acidity freshens things at the end and lead to a long, gently sweet, finish.
- Ch La Cardonne Medoc 2009 Product #27116 (In Stock)
-
-
Agree with everything Parker wrote, except perhaps the slightly too low rating. An excellent Bordeaux to enjoy now - 2020 or so.
"This is a major sleeper of the vintage and the best wine I have ever tasted from La Cardonne, which is in the northern end of the Medoc, near the town of Blaignan. A blend of 50% Merlot, 45% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest Cabernet Franc, this 2009 offers up notes of tobacco leaf, cassis, and loamy soil with underbrush nuances. With excellent texture, impressive purity, and medium to full body, this is a rich, over-achieving cru bourgeois to drink over the next decade." Wine Advocate 88 points
- Clos Du Roy Fronsac 2009 Product #26342 (In Stock)
-
-
Another great 2009 Bordeaux with plenty of stuffing but also loads of immediate appeal. Mainly Merlot here in Fronsac and just a touch of new oak. It's rich and creamy on the nose and palate with ripe red and black currant fruit, cedar, baking spice, and tobacco notes. A hint of bitter chocolate starts on the back and lingers on the long finish. Juicy and fresh in the middle with a dark, creamy, character at the end.
- Les Gartieux De Pichon Lalande Pauillac 2004 Product #26385 (In Stock)
-
-
Made only in larger cope years from younger vines at this "Super Second" Pauillac estate. The 2004 edition opens with classic Pauillac aromas of blackcurrant, tobacco and cedar that get stronger with air. Still young and powerful in the mouth, but mellows with air to show ripe, almost lush, fruit with accents of cigar, cedar and spice box. Rock solid and very good now and for another 5 or so years.
