  • 2018 Chateau Carbonnieux Blanc Grand Cru Classe White Wine

    2018 Chateau Carbonnieux Blanc Grand Cru Classe

    £3500

    Château Carbonnieux white is a legendary wine. It is said that in the 18th century, it was introduced to the Sultan of Constantinople’s palace because of its clarity and was called “mineral water from Carbonnieux”, thus defying Islamic law.
    The clay–limestone of Garonne gravel found in the Pessac-Léognan Appellation certainly produces the best dry white wines in the Bordeaux region. When young, Carbonnieux white wines are delightfully refreshing and pure with a fruity, floral intensity. When mature, they develop hints of dried and candied fruits.

  • 1999 Chateau Haut-Brion Premier Cru ClasseRed Wine

    1999 Chateau Haut-Brion Premier Cru Classe

    £47500

    The 1999 Château Haut-Brion is intensely aromatic, rich and concentrated. A higher than usual Merlot content (60%) has resulted in a luscious, perfectly honed Haut-Brion with elegant mineral aromas and a unique complexity. Its strength lays in the finish, which is surprisingly long.

    We recently (May 22) opened a bottle and were bowled over.   This is a monumental 1st growth from a supposedly unfashionable year, we tasted it over 2 hours and watched it evolve slowly with cascading notes of blackcurrant, blueberry, black cherry, caramel and forest floor. Fresh and pure on the palate, with a richness over-laying silky tannins. The finish is extraordinary – lengthy, seductive interwoven with subtle minerality and flavours of cedar and spice. Beautifully pure and generous.
