If you like smooth, complex clarets and good value, this is the case for you. It’s led by a mature 2012 from Château Les Grands Maréchaux, an estate in Blaye that’s a favourite of top Bordeaux critic Robert Parker. Château Beauvillage has a 96pt score and is richly layered with ripe black fruit flavours thanks to the Médoc’s excellent 2018 vintage. Then you have double-Gold Château de Colombe, a supple Merlot-rich claret from our own Castillon estate, just across the slope from Saint-Emilion’s Grands Crus Châteaux Faugères and de Pessac. Château Moine Vieux rounds off the case in fine style. It’s a silky, very appealing 2016 Saint-Emilion Grand Cru that James Suckling called “outstanding”.
