A voluminous, rich, structured effort with plenty of toasty new oak, deep black currants, and licorice interwoven with body and density, this serious wine should have a lot of upside potential. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2015.

Excellent colour. Still some toasty oak on the nose. Refreshing even if not the biggest and boldest of this range. Needs a bit of time for that oak to integrate but this should make an appetising bottle. (JR)

Bordeaux

Red Bordeaux, globally renowned, is crafted in France’s Bordeaux region from grapes like Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc. These full-bodied wines feature dark fruit flavours, earthy and spicy notes, and often benefit from ageing. Top producers include Château Margaux, Château Latour, and Château Lafite Rothschild. White Bordeaux, made from Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon, offers styles from crisp to rich, with citrus and tropical notes. Sweet Bordeaux wines, like Sauternes, are famed for their rich sweetness and flavours of apricot and honey, with Château d’Yquem as a leading producer.
