Lafaurie peyraguey Golden Edition
The Lafaurie-Peyraguey Golden Edition 2018 from Sauternes, Bordeaux, France is a truly exquisite wine. In this vintage, the Château Lafaurie-Peyraguey has produced a masterpiece with its luscious blend of Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc, and Muscadelle grapes. Upon pouring, the wine reveals a deep golden hue, glistening in the light. The first whiff brings forth an intense aroma of apricots, honey, and candied orange peel, followed by a delicate hint of vanilla and baking spices. On the palate, the wine is rich and velvety, with a perfect balance of sweetness and acidity. Flavors of ripe peaches, figs, and honeycomb dance on the tongue, leaving a long and satisfying finish. This Golden Edition 2018 is a true representation of the exceptional quality and craftsmanship of Château Lafaurie-Peyraguey, a must-try for any wine enthusiast.

Château d'Yquem Sauternes
Château d'Yquem is the indisputable worlds greatest sweet wine. This fact was known when the original 1855 classification of Sauternes was released and saw Château d'Yquem given a category all on its own, premier grand cru, which it still holds. Since 1593, only two families have owned the prestigious Château that sits in a commanding, fortress like, position overlooking most of Sauternes. Only highly skilled and permananent workers tend the vineyards that produce fruit of compelling concentration and intensity. The resulting wines can begin to be enjoyed after seven or eight years, but in good years, like the 2000 vintage, the wine can last much, much longer.
Chateau Mouton-Rothschild, 1er Cru Classe Aile D'Argent Blanc
Château Mouton-Rothschilds dry Bordeaux white is made from a blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon and Muscadelle, all planted within 4.5 hectares of vines. It is one of the few Bordeaux whites that is subject to malolactic fermentation. Ripe, intense, and elegant, stone fruit and citrus dominate the palate of this wine, with a line of racy acidity to add freshness.

Château Smith-Haut-Lafitte Pessac-Léognan
An upswing in quality over the past decade or so, has resurrected Chateau Smith-Haut-Lafitte's position amongst Bordeaux Chateau. New ownership breathed life into exceptionally positioned vineyards, now farmed with less chemicals, with a more sympatico approach in winery. Famed winemaking consultant Michel Rolland is an additional feather in Smith-Haut-Lafitte's cap, enhancing the wines concentration, power and depth, while maintaining a finesse. Though full-bodied, the wine from 2010 will be approachable a little earlier than most other fine Bordeaux, with more moderate tannin - that being said, it's life will stretch several decades too.
Domaine De Montille Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru
Domaine de Montille is one of the greatest Domaines in Burgundy and can be traced back to the middle of the 17th Century at Creancy with the Lords of Commeau.. Minerality is the most abundant character right now but the delicate freshness, balance creaminess on the finish and a gorgeous extract build excellent structure. This is very distinguished Corton- Charlemagne.
