Château Figeac St Emilion
The Premier Grand Cru Classe Château Figeac has a high percentage of mature cabernet sauvignon and cabernet franc vines (40+ years). This gives its wines blackcurrant aromas, robust structure and length. Made by experienced winemaker Frederic Faye, with Michel Rolland, the most famous consultant oenologist in the world, this vintage has the hallmarks of a buoyant Right Bank style.

CHATEAU PONTET-CANET 5ME CRU CLASSE, PAUILLAC
"Château Pontet Canet is a large Pauillac estate that can trace its origins back to 1725, when Jean-François Pontet gave his name to the estate he had acquired. The wine was not château-bottled until 1972 and in 1975 the property was sold to Guy Tesseron, who also owns Château Lafon-Rochet in Saint-Estèphe. Today it is owned and run by Alfred and Michel Tesseron. Pontet-Canet's 78 hectares of vineyards adjoin those of Mouton Rothschild and are planted with cabernet sauvignon (63%), merlot (32%) and cabernet franc (5%). The Tesserons have vastly improved the quality of the Pontet-Canet wines which are now full-bodied and packed with ripe, chewy, black fruits and finely integrated tannins. The wines have great ageing potential. Pontet-Canet is classified as a 5ème Cru Classé.. It was the first major Bordeaux wine producer to earn official organic certification, and its biodynamic production is a hallmark of its current operations."
Bodegas Valdemar Conde Valdemar Rioja Gran Reserva
This wine displays a bright bigarreau cherry colour with light red-brick tones provided by the oak ageing. It has complex and interesting aromas of ripe red fruits harmoniously integrated with spicy touches, dominating some pleasant balsamic notes. Balanced in mouth, with body and strength. Soft tannins, fleshy and expressive. A wine with a long life.
Louis Latour Echezeaux Grand Cru
This is a superb vineyard that is situated above Clos Vougeot, between Vosne-Romanée and Vougeot in the Côte de Nuits. Echézeaux offers quite diverse and complex soils depending on each climate, all with an easterly exposure. Echézeaux is an exquisite red wine that is robust, solid, yet completely harmonious. It is always a great wine to age. With a superb ruby red colour and garnet-red hues, the Echézeaux Grand Cru 2016 reveals earthy and spicy notes. The palate, ample and suave, opens up with spicy aromas and subtle hints of nutmeg and pepper, and a lovey freshness on the finish.
