Chat with Vinny
Back in 1980, Tony Laithwaite was persuaded by his mentor, Monseuir Cassin, to buy his small property in Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux – Château La Clarière. He had one mission … to prove to the world that Castillon wines were as good as any of the pricy Grand Crus Classés from neighbouring Saint-Émilion. And now, with four Trophies and over 90 Golds, he feels it’s almost mission accomplished. But Tony couldn’t have done it without you … his loyal customers. So, he’s put together a unique case with four of his top château wines – and he’s knocked 25% off the case price. Which means it’s yours today for just £14.99 a bottle – a fantastic fine-dining, thank-you case at a modest price. See your full lineup below.
