Bordeaux

A joint venture between the owner of Chateau Angelus and Chateau Lamothe Bergeron. This has to be one of the best value-for-money Bordeaux wines we’ve tasted this year. Introduced to us from friends in Bordeaux but with the hallmark of Chateau Angelus, this is a plummy, ripe wine.

93/100 Greg Sherwood MW: "The 2016 vintage is one of the greatest vintages in Bordeaux in 2 or 3 decades. With a little air, this wine starts to unwind and reveal a great aromatic presence with lifted layers of sweet violets and purple lavender perfume.

Château Turcaud Cuvée Majeure Rouge Bordeaux Supérieur AOC is rich, concentrated, fleshy and ripe, with freshness. The 2015 vintage won the gold medal at the Concours Général Agricole in Paris in 2017.
