The palate has impressive concentration and quite intense notes of fresh, grassy lemons and stone. Great poise here. A blend of 59% semillon and 41% sauvignon blanc. Drink now." James Suckling

Chateau Beau Site
Exhibiting aromas of minty berries, spices and licorice, the 2021 Beau Site is a medium-bodied, lively and nicely balanced wine. It derives from a gravel "croupe" near Calon-Ségur. "Beau-Site" means beautiful site and lies just behind Grand Cru Château Calon-Segur on one of Medoc's highest points with fantastic views over the river Gironde. It was originally classified as a Cru Bourgeois Superieur in 1932 but in 1966 Beau Site was reclassified as a Cru Grand Bourgeois Exceptionnel. The Castéja family, who also own Château Batailley and Château Trotte Vieille, bought the château in 1955. The château has nearly 100 hectares of vines with an average age of 35 years. Beau-Site's 18th century underground cellar is one of the oldest in the Médoc and presents the perfect maturing conditions for a wine that is vinified with the same care and technique as a Grand Cru Classé. Beau-Site's wine is full of power and temperament, a typical Saint-Estèphe with tannins allowing for keeping this wine for some years.

Chateau Tour Saint Christophe
Jean Christophe Meyrot, ex La Violette (one of the top properties in Pomerol) . Full on but good structure. Juicy palate. Certainly ripe. Warm, good acid, persistent. More powerful than elegant. Forthright. Dark ruby color with black fruit notes like blackberries and black cherries, violet and dry herbs, leather and black pepper, nice minerality and French oak, some vanilla and tobacco. Nice balance and structure with a long finish.

Chateau La Louviere
100% Sauvignon Blanc from four terroirs: clay, limestone-clay, marl, gravel. 93/100 Jane Anson "Bright Sauvignon Blanc aromatics on the nose, this is good quality. Power, concentration and spliced citrus and slate minerality. Maintains momentum, easy to love. A yield of 31hl/ha, with 10 months ageing on lees with regular stirring in to fatten up the mouthfeel. An impressive La Louvière, stands out from recent vintages at this estate."

Chateau Ormes de Pez
Black to the dark-crimson rim. Open and aromatic: black cherry, blueberry, some oak spice and vanilla but not too much. Powerful, compact, dry but still balanced and finishes fresh. Big and chewy but still harmonious.

Chateau Coutet
More classic Sauternes style. Rich stone fruits, a smoky backbone, and a syrupy finish. Declared a 1er Cur Classé at the 1855 Sauternes and Barsac Classification, Château Coutet has been producing wine since 1643. Boasting both the largest vineyard in Barsac (thirty-eight-and-a-half hectares) as well as the largest cellar (110 meters), Château Coutet has been owned by the Baly family since 1977 and managed by Aline Baly since 2009.

Chateau Meyney
Floral, supple, elegant. Lovely ripe fruit, blackcurrant with coconut-y oak. Well formed, ripe tannin. Slightly coffee / toffee finish. Surprising. 92/100 Jane Anson "This is more proof of the consistency of Meyney. It has clear oak finessing, well held together with a cinnamon dusting and white pepper spicing, giving a gourmet edge with its own character. This feels finessed, contemporary and accomplished; a pretty complete package. This perhaps doesn't quite have the generosity of 2016, as the tannins are a little more tightly-drawn, but this is still good. Retasted several times and it stands out for its quality. Harvested 15 September to 5 October. Hubert de Boüard is consultant, with Anne Le Naour technical director."

Chateau Ormes de Pez
The Saint-Estèphe is produced from the younger fruit of Château LesOrmes de Pez. The blend is 59% CabernetSauvignon, 39% Merlot and 2% Cabernet Franc.The young fruit delivers a forward, silky style for immediate pleasure but the classic Saint-Estèphe structure is also clearly on show. Dark-crimson rim. Open and aromatic: black cherry, blueberry, some oak spice and vanilla but not too much. Powerful, compact, dry but still balanced and finishes fresh. Big and chewy but still harmonious.

Olivier Cazenave et Chateau
The Bel a Ciao name was taken from the name of a revolutionary song, Oliviers wine making can be quite 'revolutionary' and he doesn’t like sticking to the rule book! The wine has refreshing citrus aromas such as tangerine as well as wild flowers. The mouth is fresh, lively and complex with notes of fresh tropical and citrus fruits. A slightly spicy, long lemon finish. The lack of sulfites used in the vineyard and in production combined with careful winemaking, this wine has incredibly low sulfite levels in the finished wine.

Chateau Beau Site
74% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Merlot, 3% Petit Verdot. Low yields of 17 hl/ha following the hail storm in June and the deep gravels the Cabernet is planted on. 14.0% ABV. 40% new oak. What is made is very good, clean and long with precise extraction and ripe but not overripe fruit. It derives from a gravel "croupe" near Calon-Ségur. "Beau-Site" means beautiful site and lies just behind Grand Cru Château Calon-Segur on one of Medoc's highest points with fantastic views over the river Gironde.

Chateau du Glana
CWM Rating Firswt Class 65% Cabernet Sauvignon 35% Merlot. 35% new oak. This is the most impressive du Glana I have tasted, a full bodied fruity wine with excellent concentration, sweet creamy black fruits and a well-balanced long finish. There were many very good Saint-Julien wines in 2022 but I think this is the best value of them.

Chateau Cap de Faugeres
We've been following this excellent property for over 25 years and it never disappoints. Very dark, black cherry aromas. Medium-bodied, the palate is elegant with lovely freshness and well played, soft tannins. Terrific value from the makers of Ch Faugeres, which sits across the fence and boundary as a Saint-Emilion Grad Cru Classé. High 2:1, 90-91 James Suckling

Chateau Laroze
Jane Anson 92/100 "Powerful, concentrated, extremely sexy and confident. Very young and knitted down at this stage, suggest holding off for a good five years at least, but there is a ripple of cassis, liquorice, baked earth, gingerbread and slate that suggests great things ahead. Owned by the Meslin family, aged in 100% new oak."

Chateau Ch. Croizet Bages
Focused, rather elegant Cabernet linear nose. Mouth-filling. This tastes like a particularly fine New World Cabernet - and that is not meant as an insult. Attractive mineral quality on the end. Quite long.

Chateau Haut-Bailly
Haut Bailly is one of the greatest Bordeaux chateaux that you've never heard of, which makes this second wine one of the best value Bordeaux that you can actually lay your hands on without it breaking the bank. Generous, fruit ladena and drop dead gorgeous.

Chateau Le Crock
Under-the-radar estate that's sandwiched between heavyweight Second Growths Château Montrose and Château Cos d’Estournel, is made by Didier Cuvelier from 'super-second growth' Ch Leoville Poyferré in Saint Julien but is a fraction of the cost. Ripe sweet black fruit aromas, plus dusty oak. V good ripeness on palate, svelte medium+ body. Nice balance, long and fine finish

Chateau Grand Puy Lacoste
The always excellent second wine of Ch Grand Puy Lacoste.

Chateau d'Escurac

Chateau Rol Valentin
Flowers, black raspberries, liquorice, black cherries and plum scents are out in front here. Medium-bodied, silky, fresh, pure and vibrant, as well as refined in texture, the wine offers ample, sweet, ripe, red berries and a touch of cocoa in the finish. Drink from 2024-2040.

Chateau Bonnet
Fine and very expressive, there are citrus and white flowers, on the nose, with vanilla from some nice oak. On the palate, there is complexity, ripe fruit and a pleasant freshness. It is a very aromatic wine with notes of citrus fruits. The whole wine is well balanced between body, freshness and oak. The Château Bonnet Réserve comes from a selection of a few hectares, among the 120 of the estate's vineyard, producing white wines in sustainable viticulture. The grape varieties selected are Sauvignon and Sémillon.

Chateau Pichon Baron
First-growth intensity on the nose. Very sweet – maybe not quite the freshness of some vintages – but definitely first growth in terms of build. Great stuff! Pure pleasure. 94/100 Decanter "Nose of mocha, cocoa beans, and smoky elements with graphite and a perfume of blackcurrant bud emerging after aeration. The palate reveals a peppery note and a mouthfeel that is dense and structured with fine tannins, yet it seems more elegant than the nose, especially on the fine-boned, close-knit finish. A rather singular expression of Pichon Baron."

Chateau Guiraud
CWM Rating: First Class! 60% Semillon and 40% Sauvignon Blanc A classy, complex nose of passion fruit, mango, lemon tart and gooseberry. Great intensity on the savoury palate with a smokey undertone. Creamy hazelnuts, yuzu zest and green fruits, seasoned with vanilla seeds, lead to a touch of spice on the finish.

Chateau Jussas
Double Gold Medal winner for this Merlot-based red wine that is packed with flavour and very well balanced already. Lots of plum and blackberry primary flavours, soft tannins and a nice lick of acidity that keeps the wine energetic.

Chateau Liot
90/100 Georgia Hindle, Decanter "Creamy, honeyed and citrus flavours, lemon and grapefruit rind giving the spiced frame with flint and salt giving some mineral touches too. It has a nice weight and density with cool, apple, pear, mango and lemon fruit on the finish. Feels supremely clean and well worked if lacking a little more unctuousness. 115g/l residual sugar. 3.52g total acidity. 3.88pH."
