This is classic Right Bank Bordeaux with a bit of wow factor. A classic merlot–cabernet sauvignon blend grown on south-facing slopes overlooking the Gironde - which is wine-speak for ripe fruit, balanced structure and plenty of natural charm.

Why do we love this wine?
Sustainably farmed and aged for 10 months in French oak from a handful of carefully selected coopers, which shows in the detail. You’ll find ripe cassis and juicy blueberry up front, followed by violet lift, gentle spice and those cosy oak notes - vanilla, toasted hazelnut, a touch of cocoa - all neatly folded in rather than purely slapped together. The palate’s generous but composed, with enough structure to feel serious and enough freshness to keep things lively. This is Bordeaux that plays beautifully at the dinner table - think roasts, grilled meats, slow-cooked stews - basically anything hearty and comforting.
