CHAMBOLLE-MUSIGNY,DOMAINEMICHELGROS 12x37.5 £322.00 £32.20 “Firm reduction. There is a lovely sense of mid-palate refinement to the energetic, delineated and mineral-inflected flavors that contrasts with the slightly dry and short finish.” - ALLENMEADOWS BH86-89 £167.00 £33.40 “A classic in the making. The bouquet is wonderfully perfumed with peppery florals, mixing tart cherry and blueberry with white smoke, hints of graphite and shaved cedar. Silky textures race across a core of juicy acids andminerals,making for a ripe yet cool-tonedandpleasurably tactile expression. Youthful tannins slowlymake themselves known toward the close. Long, structuredand spicy, the2015finisheswithacrescendoof tart blueandblack fruits, tapering off to notes of subtly sweet spice.” - ERICGUIDO VINOUS95 £172.00 £34.40 “The2011SanLeonardo isanother landmarkeditionof this celebratedwine. Thiswarmvintagehas shapedaslightlymoreopulent andsucculent expression with dark fruit nuances of blackberry andMorello cherry. The bouquet is intense and exuberant. Delicate layers of spice, leather and tobacco give volume at the back.” -MONICALARNER WA93 12x37.5 £416.00 £41.60 “A pungent nose is composed of strong reduction and wood toast where the latter element can also be found on the solidly concentrated medium-bodied flavors that offer good depth and persistence on themildly tangy but not drying finish.” - ALLENMEADOWS BH89-91 SANLEONARDO,TENUTASANLEONARDO 2015 6x37.5 SANLEONARDO,TENUTASANLEONARDO 2011 6x37.5 NUITSST.GEORGES, 1ERCRU,DOMAINEMICHELGROS 2017 TERREDISANLEONARDO £150.00 £30.00 After some coaxing this really blossoms and offers so much bang for buck you’d think you had a much more expensive bottle on your hands, with its brightness of fruit, pure, saline character. Supple tannins. Fresh and very long. Very impressive. £31.60 Elegant, engaging floral, violet, strawberry nose leads to a taut and fine palate, with tobacco, pepper and lovely nervy acidity in support of the ripe fruit. Long and balanced, this drinks well above its appellation. £172.00 £34.40 Pure and expressive nose, herb, spice and white pepper and olive tapenade, very typical Syrah. Firm, taut with good backbone and freshness underpinning the pure fruit. Good length. We can’t recommend this superb bottlingmore highly! £195.00 £39.00 “Linear and lightly dusty with cherry, chocolate and spices. Medium-bodied with fine tannins and a savory finish with lovely fruit.” - JAMES SUCKLING JS91 £47.36 “Generous pear fruit and substance for aKabinett, but they’remarried to bright, citrusy acidity thatmakes this uplifting andappealing.” - JAMESSUCKLING JS94 £266.00 £53.20 Very classic “claret” nose - lead pencil and cassis. On the palate lovely refreshing fruit good structuremediumweight and SUCH great value. JS91-92 £276.00 £55.20 “One of the more flamboyant Margaux bouquets, boasting precocious red cherry, crushed strawberry and cedar aromas, all very cohesive and displaying good vigor. The fresh tensile palate is medium-bodied with fine-grained tanin, offering dark cherries, bay leaf and cedar toward the persistent finish.” - NEALMARTIN VINOUS90 2018 6x150 CÔTESDURHÔNE,DOMAINELAURENTCHARVIN 2019 3x150 £79.00 VACQUEYRAS,CUVÉEDETEMPLIERS,DOMAINELECLOSDESCAZAUX 2019 6x150 MONTELECCIO,SESTI 2019 6x150 JOHANNJOSEFPRÜMGRAACHERHIMMELREICHRIESLINGKABINETT 2018 3x150 £118.39 CHÂTEAUPOTENSAC,CRUBOURGEOISEXCEPTIONNELHAUT-MÉDOC 2014 6x150 BARONDEBRANE,MARGAUX 2015 6x150 REDWINES : MAGNUMS
