Red Blend

The 2019 Chateau Musar is a dark and broody wine showing complex blueberry and blackcurrant fruit mingled with black olives and a touch of clove on the nose.  These flavours follow through on the palate and are joined by cherries, plums and spice with notes of black pepper.  Well-balanced and approachable now, but as with all Musar releases, this will continue to age gracefully for many years to come.

2019 Chateau Saransot-Dupre, Cru Bourgeois Superieur Listrac

Bordeaux Blend

Chateau Saransot-Dupre is an excellently sited 17 hectares property that lies between Fourcas Dupré and Fourcas Hosten in Listrac.  Due to Listrac’s cooler temperatures, Merlot and Cabernet Franc are favoured over Cabernet Sauvignon to form the majority of the blend, helping them achieve optimum ripeness.  Much like Chateau Fourcas Hosten, the wines have improved year on year since 2010 and the property were put on the radar thanks to a certain Robert Parker hailing the 2010 vintage as 'classed growth quality'.  High praise indeed!
