Description
70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, 10% Petit Verdot.
Best ever! A bold statement? Perhaps, but we have been going here to taste for many years, and it just gets better every year. Always soft, round and ripe, the team has brought it to another level. Lovely crushed raspberry and cream on the nose and a deliciously velvety mouthful, like cold raspberry ripple ice cream on warm summer pudding. It's a consistent quality that you can always rely on. Delicious!

Margaux
If Pauillac is the bastion of ‘traditional’ Red Bordeaux, Margaux represents its other facet in producing wines that are some of the region’s most sensual and alluring. The largest commune in the Médoc, it encompasses the communes of Cantenac, Soussans, Arsac and Labaude, in addition to the village of Margaux itself. Its finest examples are paragons of refinement and subtlety which have few parallels in Bordeaux.
