1x Château Tronquoy-Lalande Saint-Estèphe 2018
Red — Cabernet Blend
Bordeaux — France
You can’t shop for great Bordeaux in a wine store. Well, you can try - nothing is impossible - but the highly pointed gems, like Château Tronquoy-Lalande sell out far too quickly, and often well in advance or ‘en primeur’ months before it’s even hit our Australian shores. We discovered this beauty on a recent wine-buying trip to France, and get this: almost immediately upon it hitting our critical lips, even before knowing any details about the Château, we knew it over-delivered in quality. Those ‘aha’ moments happen, and when they do, you want to jump up and down. Are you a French wine loving ‘mofo? Fantastique! You are going to love this classy rouge.
Four famous grape varieties are used to make the premium blend. Merlot, cabernet sauvignon, petit verdot and cabernet franc. Every year, the unique blend is different, but they all have a particular role to play to bring together density, aroma, flavour and a beautiful feathery long length to best reflect the style of the Château and the excellent vintage. The symphonious dance of tobacco, French oak resin, blackcurrant and liquorice aromas all combine to give this deep Bordeaux a distinctive personality, worthy of a dinner in a ‘James Bond’ tuxedo. Super classy.

1x La Bastide Saint Dominique Les Hespérides Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2020
Red — Grenache Blend
Châteauneuf-du-Pape — France
This Southern Rhône bad-boy is complex and intense (just how we like it). Although fresh and elegant at first, the oaky blend then slaps your mouth with a deep, spicy and peppery finish. Full in body and perfectly balanced, this wine is here to stand out. La Bastide Saint Dominique estate’s combination of unique soil and old vines ensures that each wine is produced to the highest calibre. Bathed by the bright southern sun, the wines are juicy and big... so get your T-bone steak on the grill and pop this wine in the decanter to prepare for an exceptional experience.

1x Château Mongravey Margaux 2018
Red — Cabernet Blend
Bordeaux — France
This Bordeaux, hailing from the Margaux appellation, is a cab-merlot blend with a touch of cab franc and a whole lotta charm. With a massive 97 points from DWWA, it’s an awesome expression of the area and anyone who loves Margaux will love this.
This wine is fresh and elegant, with the right amount of tannin soaking up delicious plum fruit. It’s juicy, full of red and black fruits and will go down an absolute treat with any of your favourite meats. Grab it for a special dinner with a special someone (or anyone really). It’ll please ’em all.
