I am so pleased that the 2019 Carbonnieux has retained the engaging aromatics that I found from the barrel sample: copious blackberry, raspberry, incense and light violet aromas soar from the glass. The palate is very well balanced with fine-grained tannins, and much more precise than recent vintages, leading to a harmonious, silky-smooth, almost tender finish. More polished than recent vintages, this Carbonnieux comes highly recommended.Inc. TAX€469.98 -
Bring elegance to your table with the Chateau Canon Chaigneau Cuve 8a Lalande de Pomerol 2019. Revered for its distinctive complexities, this red blend is a remarkable fusion of Merlot and Cabernet Franc grapes. Harvested in the revered terroir of Lalande de Pomerol in Bordeaux, France, the wine encapsulates the region's distinct earthy richness and favourable climate. It was traditionally fermented in temperature-controlled tanks, ensuring a controlled extraction of elegant layers of flavour. Angelina and Jean Chaigneau, the producers, continue the family's multi-generational commitment to viniculture by adhering to meticulous organic farming methods, resulting in this truly superior wine. Expect a beautiful ruby colour with an expressive bouquet, dominant dark fruits, delicately balanced with soft silky tannins on the palate. The harmonious finish epitomises the Chateau Canon Chaigneau Cuve 8a Lalande de Pomerol 2019's flawless refinement and unparalleled quality.

Barrel Sample. Famed for its white wine, this estate has produced another impressive vintage. It has great poise between lusciousness and a tight mineral texture, giving balance and longevity. Nutmeg flavors come from the wood aging. It should cellar well.Inc. TAX€233.58 -

Reminding me of the 2016, the 2019 Domaine De Chevalier checks in as 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, and 5% Petit Verdot that was brought up in 35% new French oak. Its vivid purple color is followed by a classy bouquet of crème de cassis, damp earth, tobacco leaf, and spring flowers. With medium to full-bodied richness, stunning purity of fruit, silky tannins, and a good spice of acidity, this beautiful, classic, quintessential Chevalier will need 5-7 years of bottle age yet keep for 4-5 decades in cold cellars.

Domaine de Chevalier's 2019 Blanc is performing brilliantly, unwinding in the glass with notes of citrus pith, white currants, crisp orchard fruit, spring flowers, lemongrass and beeswax. Medium to full-bodied, deep and layered, it's concentrated and structured, with terrific depth at the core, racy acids and a long, sapid finish. This is a white Bordeaux where the vulgarity of Sauvignon is sublimated rather than emphasized, and the result is a compelling wine of considerable complexity and aging potential.Inc. TAX€640.38 -
