We can now also offer Chateau Ducru Beaucaillou at £750 per 12. This noble Second Growth estate is named after the beautiful stones ("beau caillou") that are found in the vineyard here, fabulously situated next to the river. This is a Chateau that has been firing on all cylinders over the past few years and quality is top notch. Full of finesse and incredible length, 2014 is one of the best vintages of the last decade (after the '09 and '10) and is a fair price given other comparable vintages available.

Showing pure class, 2014 is a disarmingly beautiful Cheval Blanc with a stunning texture. Scored 95-97 from Neal Martin and 96-99 by the Wine Spectator. A clear highlight in 2014, it is now available at £3420 per 12. The silky second wine Petit Cheval is also released at £965 per 12.
Released at the same price as Cheval, Chateau Ausone (a tiny production of around 1000 cases) is also now available at £3420 per 12, with its second wine, la Chapelle d'Ausone at £900 per 12.
Quinault l'Enclos is now owned and made by the team at Cheval Blanc since 2008 and quality has been on an upward trajectory ever since. Available now at £185 per case, but we also have the very fine 2010 Quinault in stock at £180 per case (RP 91, 17 JR).
The original Garage wine Valandraud is also released today at £800 per 12, along with the second wine Virginie de Valandraud at £220 per 12.
POMEROL UPDATE: Vieux Chateau Certan was released yesterday and sold out straight away to clients who had "wish list"-ed it. We still have some availability on the following top Pomerols: Eglise Clinet (£1300 per 12), Evangile (£860 per 12), Conseillante (£640 per 12), Le Gay (released yesterday at £575 per 12), Clinet (£425 per 12) and Gazin (£390 per 12).
Wine offered en primeur (available Spring 2017 In Bond UK). For enquiries please email the team or contact us on 01223 849040.
