Chateau Bouqueyran $24.99

 

This wine has won many prizes: the 2012 vintage was awarded Or from the Concours General Agricole Paris as well as Silver from the Concours Mondial de Bruxelles. This is among the top 10 most highly rated Moulis-en-Medoc wines (based on critic scores).


Chateau De Braude $26.99

4 stars - Decanter
"A beauty contest winner! Discreet, classy aroma of crunchy fruit and earth. Attack is substantially supple with well-defined pure fruit notes of plum and cherry and a svelte texture. Classy and elegant – an excellent drink."


Chateau Gaudin Paulliac $44.99

"Chateau Gaudin is one of only four independent chateaux left in Pauillac. Madame Linette Capdeville took over the seven hectares of vineyard from her grandfather and says she's been making wine since she was nine. Madame Capdeville wants wines that express Pauillac, so Gaudin's not over-extracted and not a 'body-building' wine. The most important thing is the fruit, which is sweet and ripe, and is supported by oak (only 30% new), but not overshadowed by it." Savannah Wine Cellar


Chateau Villafranche Sauternes $21.99

Chateau Villefranche is golden in color (which deepens with age), with a perfumed and complex nose of vanilla, apricots, peaches and preserved white fruits. Highly concentrated with great acidity and balance, this wine may be consumed young, or left to age in a cool cellar and increase in complexity for a decade or so. Drink this with foie gras, starters of all types, white meats, and cheeses, especially Roquefort! Also excellent as an aperitif with walnuts.
