Bordeaux 2016 Showcase
Superb clarets from one of the greatest Bordeaux vintages in living memory – SAVE £42
Bordeaux 2016 is a very hallowed year for claret fans – but such is demand, this may be your final chance to pick up a mixed case of high calibre wines like these. Château de Francs is owned by two of Bordeaux’s finest names and offers silky smooth dark fruit and tobacco notes. Côtes de Bourg excelled in 2016 and Château Caruel is plump and juicy with St-Emilion-like depth and texture. “One pretty reliable short cut to value in the Médoc is to head for a bottle carrying the cru bourgeois seal” writes Jancis Robinson MW. For delicious proof, open cedar-scented, barrel-aged Château Haut-Canteloup or cassis-laden Château Bellerive.
