Bin	Saint-Émilion	Year	Bottle

65	Château Bélair-Monange 1er Grand Cru Classé Bélair-Monange (formerly Bélair) was taken over by the Moueix family in 2008 and has gone from stalwart to superstar. The considerable investment here shows in this near perfect and lavishly proportioned wine.	2010	£475.00

Bin	Pomerol & Lalande-de Pomerol	Year	Bottle

74	Château Latour à Pomerol From the Jean-Pierre Moueix stable, this 2012 is now in its optimum drinking window (with at least another decade ahead of it) silky smooth tannins revealing a delicious black fruit core.	2012	£375.00
75	Château Hosanna Hosanna is a tiny parcel of vines situated between Petrus, La Fleur and Vieux Château Certain, producing some of the most lavish wines in Pomerol. A rich and lavish wine transcending the usual traits of this vintage.	2012	£400.00
77	Pensées de Lafleur Not quite the second wine of the legendary Château Lafleur as since 1999 this has been made from a specific clay-rich plot of the Lafleur vineyard. Soft, gentle and harmonious whilst still rich, this is close to perfection.	2008	£475.00
76	Château La Fleur-Pétrus One of the great names in Pomerol; beautifully situated with an illustrious track record. The 2010 is a stone-cold classic from the greatest vintage this century; ready now, but with a long future ahead of it.	2010	£750.00

81	Château Petrus One of the finest wines ever to be produced at Petrus, or for that matter, all of Pomerol. A big, black, viscous glass of wine, this exhibits huge amounts of ripe, black, almost caramelised fruits on the nose and lots of rich multi-layered fruit, tannin and rich oak on the palate.	1990	£6000.00

Bin	Pessac Leognan & Graves	Year	Bottle

Bin	Saint-Julien	Year	Bottle
102	Château Branaire-Ducru 4ème Cru Classé For a long time Branaire-Ducru was sold mainly in France, making it undeservedly obscure. The accent here is on quality and terroir, rather than modernity, as seen in this stunning ’03.	2003	£325.00
105	Château Léoville-Barton 2ème Cru Classé A grand old property with a history for age worthy claret and a loyal following in the UK. This is one of the all-time greats produced here and is ready for rewarding drinking right now.	2005	£450.00
103	Château Léoville-Poyferre 2ème Cru Classé An estate that has risen in quality over the last 25 years and is now consistently producing some of the finest wines in the Medoc. A big wine for the vintage, still showing youthful vibrancy but still approachable.	2012	£460.00
104	Château Ducru Beaucaillou 2ème Cru Classé After a bit of a shaky period in the late eighties, Ducru returned to form with a vengeance, in the mid-nineties. A real powerhouse, with lots going on aromatically, and a reassuring weight on the palate.	2006	£650.00
106	Château Léoville-Las Cases 2ème Cru Classé As far as quality and critical appraisal go this estate easily holds its own with the first growths. A near perfect example from a near perfect vintage, this is a hedonistic treat that has just opened up for drinking.	2005	£700.00

Bin	Pauillac	Year	Bottle

121	Château Mouton-Rothschild 1er Cru Classé A great wine from an insider’s vintage and probably the best Mouton of the nineties. Typically firm for the vintage, but with a super-ripe core of fruit now overcoming some serious tannin.	1998	£2400.00
119	Château Latour 1er Cru Classé A magnificent Latour still in the early stages of its very long drinking window. Classically proportioned with everything in the right place, this is possibly the wine of the vintage, as is often the case with Latour.	1995	£2500.00
120	Château Latour 1er Cru Classé A monumental wine, just ready for those who like their Claret concentrated, yet suavely balanced. Classic Latour with the richness and power you would expect, now entering maturity with a great degree of elegance.	1990	£3000.00
118	Château Latour 1er Cru Classé Once again Latour produces possibly the finest wine of this excellent vintage. A very serious Cabernet-dominated effort that is at the start of its drinking window (this is from the 2016 release).	2000	£3750.00
122	Château Lafite-Rothschild 1er Cru Classé An awesome wine that is drinking surprisingly well, given the rather austere nature of the vintage, in fact it’s hard to imagine it getting much better. Massively fruity, with an almost regal opulence, with supple, rather than hard tannins.	1986	£4000.00
123	Château Mouton-Rothschild 1er Cru Classé One of the greatest Moutons ever, still remarkably youthful and adolescent rather than fully mature. A rich and opulent; perfectly open now after a fairly long tannic slumber.	1982	£4500.00

Bin	Margaux	Year	Bottle
128	Château Brane-Cantenac 2ème Cru Classé What should be one of the finest properties in Margaux has upped its game in recent decades and is producing racy, elegant but still very traditional claret. An open and accessible example from a great drinking vintage.	2009	£350.00
127	Château Rauzan-Ségla 2ème Cru Classé Now up there with Palmer and Margaux itself, this is deep and powerful, with the sophistication expected from a Margaux. The 2009 vintage is 58% Cabernet Sauvignon & 42% Merlot: full-bodied, yet subtle with a long & spicy finish.	2009	£725.00
132	Château Palmer 3ème Cru Classé Palmer is a third growth usually thought of as one of the super-seconds and these days produces wines to rival the firsts. A beautiful Palmer showing the great elegance that could be achieved in this very underrated vintage.	2004	£850.00
133	Château Margaux 1er Cru Classé From an overlooked vintage that has gained plaudits over time, this is a great Margaux. Medium-bodied, richly perfumed, this has a voluptuous touch; definitely not a tannic behemoth.	1998	£1500.00
134	Château Margaux 1er Cru Classé After an inauspicious start, the nineties produced a series of decent vintages beginning with the excellent 1995. Margaux excelled in this year and this is first growth claret in all of its majesty.	1995	£2000.00

Bin	Bordeaux White	Year	Bottle
140	Château Grand Village A stunning white Fronsac (70% Sauvignon Blanc/30% Semilion) from the owners of Château Lafleur. Dry, but with a depth of flavours not always found in white Bordeaux.	2021	£65.00
143	Blanc de Lynch-Bages A very good example of the rare white from this top-flight Pauillac estate. A fine pear-scented nose shows hints of citrus, with a lovely lively finish on the palate.	2018	£250.00

Bin	Sauternes & Barsac	Year	Bottle
147	Château Guiraud 1er Cru Classé After a lot of time and investment Guiraud has risen from relative anonymity to become one of the finest estates in Sauternes. They are renowned for making powerful wines in a poised style, that even in hot vintages like '03 don’t become too fat.	2003	£120.00
145	Château Rieussec 1er Grand Cru Since being purchased by Lafite-Rothschild in 1984 Rieussec has shown its potential as one of the finest estates in Sauternes. The style here is unashamedly opulent and supported by generous amounts of new oak.	2011	£200.00
151	Château Climens 1er Cru Classé From one of the finest estates in Barsac, Climens’ wines are the epitome of delicacy and complexity. This ’03 is an outlier from an unusually hot vintage showing more power and concentration.	2003	£220.00
149	Château de Fargues# 1er Cru Classé De Fargues was the sister estate of Yquem that remained with the Lur-Saluces family after LVMH bought its illustrious sibling. The selection here is as strict as Yquem and the élevage as lavish and lengthy, resulting in one of the finest wines in Sauternes.	1997	£240.00
150	Château d’Yquem 1er Cru Supérieur One of the finest Yquems of the nineties, starting to open up at this comparatively youthful stage.

152	Château d’Yquem 1er Cru Supérieur The last of a triumvirate of great vintages (preceded by 1988 & 1989) this behemoth is one of the richest wines ever made here. Intensely botrytised and seamlessly full; truly profound wine. (Chilled to order)	1990	£1200.00

171	Chambolle-Musigny Domaine Coquard Loison-Fleurot With a name that hardly trips off the tongue this domain has gone from utter obscurity to critical darling in the last few years.

173	Nuits–St.–Georges 1er Cru Clos Des Fôrets St.–Georges Domaine de L’Arlot A beautifully situated monopole vineyard, owned by a very well-regarded property. Delicate but with great length and depth.	Côte de Nuits	2016	£325.00

186	Romanée-St.-Vivant Once the ugly duckling of DRC’s offerings, this is now one of the most beautiful of their swans. Both elegant and powerfully structured this is a wine built for the long haul.	Côte de Nuits	2006	£4500.00
189	Richbourg Grand Cru Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Richbourg is DRC’s crowd-pleaser showing even more opulence than the Romanée-Conti itself. The ’06 is a stone-cold classic that is starting to open up and show its pedigree.	Côte de Nuits	2006	£5000.00
190	La Tâche Grand Cru Domaine de la Romanée-Conti La Tâche is pretty much the pinnacle of red Burgundy and this is a truly great example. An exotic peacocks tail of a nose is supported by fine grained tannins that will ensure this wine lasts for decades.	Côte de Nuits	2006	£8000.00
